The Seiko King Quartz with a distinctive 1970s design that reflects the bold styling of the era. Its rectangular "TV" case is integrated into a slim steel bracelet, creating a seamless profile on the wrist. The silver textured dial is echoed by a matching textured finish on the case, giving the watch a cohesive look that is rarely seen.
As one of Seiko's early high-end quartz lines, King Quartz models were built to a higher standard than the company's mainstream offerings. The dial features slender baton hands and applied markers, while the bilingual day display can be shown in either English or Japanese kanji, a small detail that adds character and highlights its domestic Japanese heritage.
This example is in good condition with some light wear on the case and crystal, typical for a watch of its age.
The watch is modeled on a 16cm (6.3 inch) wrist.

Quality vintage watches are durable and designed for regular wear, but should still be treated with care due to their age. Like all vintage watches, this piece is no longer considered water resistant. It is currently running well at the time of listing, though future servicing or adjustment may eventually be required, like any watch of its age.
