Seiko 5 6309-5810 Men’s Automatic Dress Vintage Watch, 1982

A white cushion-shaped inner frame gives the matte silver dial of the Seiko 5 watch from 1982, reference 6309-5810, its distinctive layout. Gold-tone stick markers alternate with Arabic numerals at 6, 9 and 12, accompanied by matching narrow hands. The 35 mm steel cushion case joins its original integrated bracelet and houses automatic caliber 6309.

Silver dial, white inner frame and gold markers

The silver surface has a matte finish, bordered internally by the white cushion-style frame. Gold-tone stick markers share the hours with Arabic numerals at 6, 9 and 12. A bilingual day-date display sits at 3.

The hour and minute hands are gold-tone sticks. A slim gold central seconds hand completes the handset, maintaining the warmer colour against the silver and white arrangement.

Cushion case and original straight-link bracelet

The stainless steel case measures 35 mm across and 39 mm lug-to-lug. Brushed surfaces and polished edges define its cushion outline, giving the compact head a contrast between flatter planes and reflective borders.

The recessed crown at 4 stays close to the case and serves time and date setting. The original integrated steel bracelet uses straight links that continue the head’s geometric appearance. That original attachment is central to the dress watch’s complete steel outline.

Caliber 6309 and period construction

The automatic watch houses Seiko caliber 6309, which has 21 jewels and operates at a model beat rate of 21,600 vibrations per hour. It supplies timekeeping and the practical day-date indications.

The Seiko 5 range had offered accessible mechanical timekeeping since the 1960s. This example’s cushion case and straight-link bracelet follow the design continuity from the late 1970s into the early 1980s, while the white inner frame gives its silver face a separate visual identity.

The watch is used and in excellent vintage condition, with its original components retained. It is fully serviced and fully operational, with a 12-month warranty. Worldwide shipping is available.
