Product Description The Seiko 5 (Ref. 7009-3040) is a vintage automatic watch that captures the clean, practical design language of Seiko in the mid‑1980s. Its finely textured silver dial is accented by gold‑tone hands and applied indexes, giving it a subtle two‑tone look that works equally well in business and casual settings. The compact stainless‑steel case with its integrated bracelet and 4 o’clock crown offers comfortable, unobtrusive wear, while the day‑date display at 3 o’clock adds everyday practicality. ​ Historical and Collector Significance The 7009-3040 is powered by Seiko’s reliable 17‑jewel 7009 automatic caliber, part of the brand’s long‑running 7000 series known for durability, straightforward construction, and ease of servicing. This reference represents a more understated branch of the Seiko 5 family, combining a field‑watch‑like textured dial with the classic Seiko 5 features of automatic winding, day‑date complication, and robust stainless‑steel construction. Well‑preserved Japan‑made examples of the 7009-3040 are appreciated by collectors as versatile entry‑level vintage pieces that offer distinctive dial textures and dependable mechanical performance at an accessible price point. ​ Brand: Seiko Model: SEIKO 5 Reference number: 7009-3040 Serial number: 820119 Movement: Automatic (Seiko Cal. 7009) Day display: English and Spanish Case dimensions: Approx. 38 mm (excluding crown) Bracelet material: Stainless steel Wrist size adjustment: Adjustable from approximately 15.8 cm to 17.2 cm by adding or removing links and using the micro‑adjustment holes on the buckle (currently set at 16.5 cm, center position).
