A charming vintage Seiko automatic from the Hi-Beat era, dressed in warm gold tones with a sunburst champagne dial that radiates beautifully in the light. The applied gold baton indices, dauphine hands with aged lume, and red-numeral date aperture give it a distinctly mid-century character. Compact and elegant, this is a lovely little piece for the vintage Seiko collector.
Details Brand: Seiko Model: 2205-0250 Movement: Automatic (self-winding), 17 jewels, Hi-Beat Case: Gold-plated with brushed lug tops and polished bezel; stainless steel case back Case Size: 22.58mm excluding crown (approx.)

Condition Overall this watch presents very well for its age and earns a strong excellent grade. The dial is remarkably clean with only a light, even patina, and the case shows minor surface scratches and plating wear to the lug edges and crown — all consistent with normal vintage use. The expanding bracelet has more pronounced plating wear on its underside and edges, with some stretch visible, as is typical for this style of bracelet. The acrylic crystal carries light surface scratches but no cracks or chips. Please review the photos carefully as they form part of the description.
Service & Working Condition The movement has been tested and the watch is running. As with all vintage automatic watches, we recommend a service by a qualified watchmaker to ensure long-term reliability. The watch is presented ready to wear.
