Seiko 5 7009-8741 Vintage Men's Watch, 1985
Between muted olive green and grey, the textured dial of this 1985 Seiko 5 changes subtly with the light. Gold-tone markers and hands warm that neutral surface, while the angular steel case flows into its original Seiko 5 bracelet, reference B1375.E. Reference 7009-8741 uses automatic caliber 7009 and retains its original crown.
Olive-grey texture with gold accents
The dial has a linear-pattern texture rather than a sunburst finish. Its tone sits between olive green and grey, with the balance changing according to the viewing angle. Applied gold-tone hour markers define the perimeter, and the framed day-date display introduces a small blue accent through the visible day lettering.
The applied Seiko logo and Seiko 5 shield identify the watch. Gold-tone baton hour and minute hands have dark inlays, giving them additional contrast against the textured surface. A slender central seconds hand keeps the running display fine beside the broader batons.
Angular case and original B1375.E bracelet
Broad brushed upper surfaces and polished bevels give this vintage Seiko watch a clearly defined steel outline. The case is angular yet compact, with the lugs flowing directly toward the bracelet end links. Its domed crystal adds a softer perimeter view and subtle distortion at oblique angles.
The case measures 37 mm across and 42 mm from lug to lug, with a 19 mm lug fitting. The overall span is useful when considering its wrist footprint alongside the central width.
The original stainless steel bracelet has a brushed finish, is signed Seiko 5 and carries reference B1375.E. Its recorded wrist fit is 21 cm. The finish and end-link connection continue the integrated visual flow from the case.
The original Seiko crown is modest in size and partly recessed into the flank. That placement preserves the streamlined side profile while leaving a setting control accessible.
Automatic 7009 and original condition
Seiko caliber 7009 powers hours, minutes, central seconds, day and date. It is an automatic mechanical movement. The watch is fully serviced and fully operational.
The watch is used and retains excellent overall visual preservation. Its watch components, Seiko crown and signed B1375.E bracelet are original. It comes with a 12-month warranty, and worldwide shipping is available.
