Seiko SQ100, Ref. 8123-6030, Cal. 8123, Men’s Vintage Quartz Watch, 1992
Matte black and gold-tone furniture give this Seiko SQ100 watch from 1992, reference 8123-6030, its contrast. Applied batons surround a gold-framed date at 3, with a flat crystal above the display. Quartz 8123 sits inside a 37.5 mm steel case, fitted with its original gold-tone Seiko bracelet and a fold-over clasp with safety lock.
Matte black dial and gold-framed date
The black dial carries applied gold-tone baton markers and matching stick hour and minute hands. A slim central seconds hand provides the third reading. The date at 3 is framed in gold, while SQ100 appears above 6, preserving the dial’s balanced arrangement.
Polished gold-tone steel and original safety clasp
The stainless steel case measures 37.5 mm in diameter and 40 mm from lug to lug. Its polished gold-tone finish and smoothly rounded lugs retain the model’s combination of dress-like metalwork and sporting details. The screw-down stainless steel back is engraved 8123-6030 alongside factory markings.
A push-pull crown at 3 allows time and date adjustment. The flat crystal gives a clear, undistorted view of the dial. Both crown and crystal are in excellent condition, with the bracelet remaining structurally sound.
The Seiko watch’s original stainless steel bracelet has a gold-tone finish that continues the case’s presentation. Its fold-over clasp includes a safety lock. The rounded case, black-and-gold layout and secure bracelet retain the versatile character of this 1990s watch.
Quartz 8123, original rating and warranty
This quartz watch uses Seiko 8123, a battery-powered movement with a date display, supplying the three-hand timekeeping without regular winding. The SQ100 model’s original water-resistance rating is 100 m; this is the rated design rather than a claim about current water resistance.
The watch is used, fully serviced and fully operational, operating within specification. Its original dial, hands, case, crown, bracelet and movement are retained. The clear crystal and sound bracelet remain part of the preserved presentation. A 12-month warranty is included. Secure worldwide shipping is available.
