Model History:

The Seiko 6218-8971 is part of the early Seikomatic Weekdater family - a line of premium automatic watches introduced in the mid-1960s to emphasize both everyday practicality and refined design. Powered by the high-grade Seiko 6218 movement with 35 jewels, this model offered superior accuracy, a full day-date function, and was considered a serious alternative to Swiss contemporaries of the time. The Weekdater was designed for professionals who valued both precision and elegance, and it remains a favorite among collectors for its understated charm and mechanical quality.

Condition:

The watch is in very good vintage condition with light signs of age and use. The stainless steel case is well preserved overall, showing normal surface scratches and small marks on the bezel, lugs and case sides. The case retains strong, elegant lines and an attractive polished finish.

The silver sunburst dial is clean and attractive, with applied hour markers, separate day and date windows, and clear printing. There is light age-related patina visible on the dial, especially around the upper section near 12 o’clock, but overall the dial presents beautifully. The hands and indices are in good condition with light ageing consistent with the watch’s vintage character.

The original crystal has been polished and remains clear, with minor signs of age visible under close inspection. The caseback is correctly marked with the reference and serial number, and still shows the original Seiko dolphin emblem, though the engraving is visibly worn.

The watch is fitted with a new black leather strap. The movement has recently been fully serviced and the watch is fully functional. It comes with a 3-month functionality guarantee.
