Its slim profile and traditional styling make it an attractive timepiece for collectors and enthusiasts of vintage Seiko watches. The watch features a beautiful two-tone silver dial with a circular brushed finish, creating an attractive sunburst effect that catches the light from different angles. Applied gold-tone baton hour markers and slender gold-tone hands complement the dial, while the central seconds hand adds to its classic appearance. The Seiko Champion signature is elegantly printed in cursive script, accompanied by the inscription "Diashock 17 Jewels", referring to Seiko's shock-protection system and the 17-jewel mechanical movement.
