Seiko Ladies Hexagonal Quartz — Champagne Dial, Gold-Tone Mesh Bracelet, c.1978–1982
Everything about this little Seiko communicates the quiet confidence of late-1970s Japanese dress watchmaking.
The hexagonal case geometry sits at the precise intersection of Art Deco nostalgia and Space Age minimalism —
a shape that was unapologetically fashionable when Seiko issued it and has aged into something genuinely collectible.
The integrated textured mesh bracelet flows naturally from the lugs, giving the piece a unified, jewelry-first silhouette
that wears far above its modest price point.
The brushed champagne dial has developed a warm, honeyed patina typical of this era’s gold-tone Seiko ladies’
line — baton hour markers, matching gold hands, and the clean “SEIKO” print at 12 o’clock. No numerals, no clutter.
The caseback confirms caliber 11, an early-generation Seiko quartz movement, housed in a base-metal-top,
stainless-steel-back case — honest about its materials, solid in execution.
