The gold-plated rectangular case displays scratches, small marks and noticeable wear to the gold-toned finish. Some areas show thinning or loss of the gold plating, revealing the underlying metal. These signs of wear are consistent with the age and previous use of the watch. The silver-toned dial is generally well preserved, with visible minor ageing and small surface imperfections. The applied gold-toned hour markers and matching hands remain clearly defined. The date window at 6 o'clock is intact and legible. The mineral crystal shows signs of normal use, including light surface scratches and handling marks. The stainless steel case back displays scratches and wear consistent with age. The engraved Seiko markings, reference number and serial number remain clearly visible. The original gold-tone metal bracelet shows signs of use. Its vintage appearance complements the character of the watch. The watch is fitted with a Japanese Seiko quartz movement. Although the case back bears the historical inscription "Water Resistant", the watch has not been tested for water resistance. Water resistance is therefore not guaranteed. Please study all photographs carefully, as they form an integral part of the description and show the actual condition of the item. Story & Heritage Seiko is one of the most important names in the history of Japanese watchmaking, celebrated for its pioneering technology, precision engineering and distinctive approach to design. Founded in 1881 by Kintaro Hattori, Seiko developed from a small watch and clock business in Tokyo into one of the world's most influential watch manufacturers. In 1969, the company introduced the Seiko Quartz Astron, the world's first commercially available quartz wristwatch, marking a revolutionary moment in horological history. This innovation transformed the international watch industry, establishing new standards for accuracy, reliability and convenience. Throughout the following decades, Seiko continued to develop an extensive range of quartz watches, combining advanced Japanese movements with elegant designs inspired by both contemporary fashion and traditional watchmaking. The rectangular Tank-style wristwatch became an enduring expression of refinement. Originally popularised during the early twentieth century, this distinctive design offered an elegant alternative to conventional round wristwatches. Its architectural proportions, balanced dial and understated appearance made it a symbol of timeless sophistication. This vintage Seiko Tank Quartz Date reflects that tradition. The gold-plated rectangular case, silver dial and applied gold-toned markers create a harmonious composition that combines classical elegance with practical everyday functionality. The date display at 6 o'clock is a particularly attractive detail, adding usefulness without disturbing the symmetry of the dial. The matching gold-tone bracelet gives the watch a distinctive vintage identity, recalling an era when coordinated metal watches were an important element of sophisticated personal style. The Japanese quartz movement represents Seiko's commitment to accessible precision, offering the convenience of electronic timekeeping within a traditionally styled wristwatch. Today, vintage Seiko quartz watches are appreciated by collectors for their distinctive designs, reliable engineering and important place in the evolution of modern watchmaking. With its elegant rectangular case, silver dial, original-style gold-tone bracelet and practical date function, this Seiko remains a charming example of vintage Japanese horology. A collectible vintage piece for enthusiasts of Seiko, classic rectangular watches and elegant Japanese quartz timepieces. Internal Reference Number - VER-12
