Vintage Seiko Ladies Manual Wind Watch | Basketweave Dial & Bracelet | Ref. 11-3399 | 1978 | Pre-Owned

Vintage Seiko Ladies Manual Wind Watch | Basketweave Integrated Bracelet | Ref. 11-3399 | 1978

There’s something wonderfully cohesive about this vintage Seiko — the dial, case, and bracelet all share the same hand-engraved basketweave texture, creating a unified, jewelry-forward look that feels more like a bracelet than a traditional wristwatch. That kind of integrated design was a hallmark of 1970s Japanese dress watchmaking at its finest.

Fit Guide

Total bracelet length approximately 17cm end to end — ideal for petite to medium wrists (~14–17cm). The slim ~18mm case and tapered bracelet sit elegantly and low on the wrist, making this as much jewelry as timepiece.

Condition

Pre-owned, good vintage condition. Dial shows characteristic patina and light surface wear consistent with age — adds authentic vintage character. Case and bracelet gold-tone plating shows honest wear throughout, particularly on high-contact areas — expected and typical for a 40+ year old piece. Crystal has surface scratches visible under direct light. Fold-over clasp functions correctly. Crown winds smoothly. Movement winds and runs.
