Read more This piece is presented in heavily worn, honest vintage condition, appealing directly to collectors who appreciate authentic character and untouched history: Case: The gold-plated (SGP) case exhibits significant and heavy plating loss, revealing the base metal beneath and giving the watch a distinctly rustic, rugged patina. In strict adherence to a no-polish philosophy, this case has been conservatively cleaned but left completely unpolished. This ensures that the original factory lines, original case geometry, and true vintage integrity remain completely intact and unaltered. Dial & Crystal: In beautiful contrast to the worn case, the champagne dial is in excellent, pristine condition with crisp text (marked JAPAN 7006-6090S). The crystal shows visible surface scratches consistent with its age and history of wear. Caseback: The stainless steel caseback is in very good condition. All original factory engravings, including "SGP BACK ST. STEEL", the reference number (7006-6000), and the serial number (415985), are crisp and entirely legible. Movement: The 7006 automatic movement is functioning, with the day and date mechanisms operating as intended. Bracelet: Comes fitted with a matching vintage bracelet that also displays significant wear and plating loss, perfectly mirroring the highly patinated aesthetic of the watch head.

Item description
A classic vintage piece from the 1970s, bearing the reference number 7006-6000. This watch features a quintessential retro cushion case design, originally finished in Seiko Gold Plating (SGP). The focal point is its remarkably clean champagne/silver sunburst dial, adorned with applied gold-tone and black baton indices, and matching hands. Powered by the reliable 19-Jewel Seiko caliber 7006 automatic movement, it includes a day and date complication located at the 3 o'clock position (featuring a striking red Sunday font). Based on the serial number (415985) and the production era of the 7006 movement, this watch was manufactured in January 1974.
