This classic dress watch features a gold-plated case and a clean white dial with elegant indices. It is an automatic movement with a day and date complication. Detailed Condition Report & Functionality: Movement: This is an automatic watch with manual winding capability. Accuracy has not been formally tested. The watch starts running when shaken or wound via the crown. Crown & Functions: Pulling the crown out one click operates the quick-set date function. Pulling the crown out two clicks allows for time setting. The day of the week is adjusted by turning the hands forward/backward repeatedly between the 9 o'clock and 1 o'clock positions (this is normal for this vintage movement type). Turning the crown forward 24 hours will cycle both the day and date normally. Cosmetics: Dial: The dial is fairly clean and in good overall condition. Crystal: The crystal is clean. Case: The gold-plated case shows expected signs of wear, hairline scratches, and light scuffs consistent with its age and use. Caseback: The stainless steel caseback features the etched dolphin logo, a well-known symbol on some vintage Seiko waterproof models. It shows typical light scratching. The case number 8346-8000 is clearly visible. Maintenance: Given its age and the fact that accuracy is unknown, professional maintenance is recommended for optimal performance and daily wear. Band: The watch is fitted with a genuine Seiko black leather band.
