Why I picked this watch: I picked this 1971 Seiko because it perfectly bridges mid-century mechanical expertise with timeless elegance. Its beautifully preserved oval dial with Roman numerals offers a distinct retro charm that stands out from typical modern designs, with the solidity of a Japanese manual-winding movement. It’s not just a reliable daily vintage accessory, but a rare investment piece for any discerning collector looking for authentic vintage Seiko watches.
SEIKO ladies vintage watch, reference 11-7020, with in-house 11A movement, Japan made in 1971 (according to its serial number), case of 15 x 18.5 mm excluding the crown, hand-wound (mechanical, no battery!), working fine and serviced.
Seiko, a powerhouse in Japanese watchmaking, began its journey in 1881 when Kintaro Hattori opened a shop in Tokyo, officially adopting the “Seiko” brand name for its watches in 1924.
Seiko showcased its technical prowess in the 1960s with the Caliber 11A. This high-jewel (21 rubies) manual-wind movement was the heart of the Queen Seiko line, the feminine counterpart to the legendary King Seiko and Grand Seiko. Designed as a time-only movement without a seconds hand, the 11A emphasized elegant slimness and mechanical excellence. Today, collectors seek out the 11A as a prime example of Seiko’s “golden era”, where even their smallest movements were engineered to the highest standards of the Japanese “chronometer” philosophy.
This timepiece features a white gold-plated oval case, with white gold-plated bracelet and silver safety chain, and a dial with Roman numerals – please check the pictures. It will fit thinner wrists of up to 14.5 cm. Water resistance has not been tested, therefore it must be treated as NON-waterproof.
As with any other vintage mechanical watch, exact accuracy cannot be guaranteed, as it depends on many factors, including your kind of use. It has been regulated in different positions to minimize the average time gain/loss. The watch has been serviced recently.
