1990s · Quartz
Ref. 7N01-6G89
Two-tone is back, and this Seiko shows how it should be done. A soft cream dial with slim batons sits inside a neat round case, joined to its original steel-and-gold bracelet — the links alternating between polished gold and brushed steel like a piece of 1990s jewellery. Light, comfortable and full of retro confidence, it brings a touch of warmth to any outfit while keeping the clean, legible style Seiko is known for.

DM on InstagramTwo-tone steel and gold watches exploded in popularity in the late 1970s and 1980s, when luxury brands paired the strength of steel with the glamour of gold. Seiko brought the look to a much wider audience, combining it with its precise quartz movements.
The 7N01 calibre was one of Seiko's most widely used quartz movements of the 1990s — simple, robust and accurate, chosen for watches meant to be worn every day for decades. Its stainless steel back is stamped with the reference 7N01-6G89 and a serial number dating it to that era.
Original two-tone bracelets are often lost or replaced over the years, so finding a vintage Seiko still on its factory bracelet, as this one is, makes it a particularly complete and charming piece.
Cream dial is clean. Case and bracelet show light scratches consistent with age. Case back stamped 7N01-6G89, water resistant, stainless steel back. Running on a fresh battery.
