Seiko 5 Automatic with Recessed Crown — Day-Date 37.5mm

Seiko 5 with Hidden Crown — Iconic 1970s Design

A fascinating Seiko 5 from the 1970s featuring the distinctive hidden crown, an iconic design that made 1970s Seiko models famous. The crown, integrated into the case profile, gives a clean and aerodynamic aesthetic, while also protecting it from accidental bumps.

The Brand: Seiko

Seiko is a Japanese manufacturer founded in 1881, a pioneer in global watchmaking. The Seiko 5 line, launched in 1963, represents the essence of Seiko's philosophy: quality, reliability, and accessible value. The "5" attributes that define every Seiko 5 are: automatic movement, water resistance, day-date complication, durable case, and a crown at 4 o'clock.

Hidden Crown

The hidden crown is one of the most distinctive features of this model. Positioned at 2 o'clock, it pulls out for adjustment and disappears into the case profile, creating an elegant and functional design typical of 1970s Japanese watchmaking.

Dial and Design

The dial features a refined grey-black texture with an internal 24-hour scale and the word "AUTOMATIC" certifying the self-winding movement. Applied indices and luminous dauphine hands ensure optimal readability. The day-date at 3 o'clock shows the day of the week and the date.

Case and Movement

The 37.5mm tonneau/cushion stainless steel case offers balanced proportions and a thickness of 10.5mm. Inside beats an automatic Seiko caliber from the 7009 series, renowned for its reliability and precision over time.
