A rare all-original, full gold-plated example of Seiko's now-discontinued "Superior" line - the upgraded tier of the legendary Seiko 5 series that was exclusively marketed in Asian markets during the late 1990s and 2000s. While stainless steel and two-tone variants occasionally appear on the market, finding an all-original full gold piece with its matching gold bracelet intact is genuinely uncommon. The Superior designation indicated enhanced specifications over standard Seiko 5 models, including the superior-grade 23-jewel 7S36 automatic movement (versus the standard 21-jewel 7S26), refined dial finishing, and the distinctive "Lion" emblem branding. This reference features the highly collectible TV-style cushion case that has become increasingly sought-after among Seiko collectors. The beautifully textured guilloche dial displays an intricate crosshatch pattern that catches the light magnificently - perfectly complemented by the warm gold-tone case and bracelet. A level of dial finishing and overall presentation rarely seen on what is still a Seiko 5 timepiece. With the Superior line discontinued for well over a decade, these watches have developed a devoted following among collectors who recognise them as representing exceptional value in Japanese automatic watchmaking. Many Seiko enthusiasts remain unaware this line ever existed, making the Superior a true collector's secret.
