Seiko 5 7S26-8760 Cal. 7S26 Men’s Automatic Vintage Watch

A white wave-pattern dial and gold-tone hands give this Seiko 5 watch from 1997, reference 7S26-8760, its individual dress appearance. The 38 mm steel case carries an original integrated Jubilee-style bracelet, with brushed outer links and polished inner links. Automatic caliber 7S26 provides the mechanical time display and accompanies a framed day-date window at 3.

White waves and golden indications

The dial’s white wave texture gives its surface depth. Applied golden hour markers at 6 and 12 stand alongside slimmer baton indices elsewhere on the face. A framed day-date aperture at 3 uses blue and white discs, retaining the particular calendar colours of this example.

The gold-tone hour and minute hands have dauphine-style shapes with luminous inserts. A gold central seconds hand completes the display, continuing the colour of the main hands across the textured white background.

Steel case and original Jubilee-style bracelet

The stainless steel case combines brushed and polished surfaces, with defined transitions from the head into the bracelet. It measures 38 mm across and 42 mm from lug to lug, giving a compact overall span relative to its width.

The recessed, minimally decorated crown at 4 follows the familiar Seiko 5 layout and remains close to the case profile.

The original stainless steel Jubilee-style bracelet has brushed outer links and polished inner links. Its integrated fit carries the case’s mixed finishing through the attachment, giving this dress watch a continuous metal appearance.

Caliber 7S26 and retained original components

The automatic watch uses Seiko caliber 7S26, a 21-jewel movement with a model beat rate of 21,600 vibrations per hour, or 3 Hz. It has neither manual winding nor hacking seconds, two setting limitations that matter when using the watch.

The Seiko 5 line continued its accessible mechanical approach into the late 1990s. Here, the white wave texture, gold furniture and integrated bracelet give that familiar automatic format a specific visual identity.

This example is in excellent used condition, retaining its original dial, hands, case and bracelet. It is fully serviced and fully operational and comes with a 12-month warranty. Worldwide shipping is available.
