A refined mid-century design from one of Japan’s most storied watchmakers, the Seiko Champion is a classic hand-wound dress watch from the early 1960s. With its slim stainless steel case, minimalist dial, and elegant proportions, it reflects Seiko’s approach to precision watchmaking before the quartz revolution.
The off-white dial features simple baton indices and dauphine hands, complemented by the subtle “Diashock 17 Jewels” marking — a nod to Seiko’s proprietary shock protection system. Inside ticks a reliable manual-wind movement, making this watch both a tactile and timeless choice for everyday wear.
Whether you're drawn to its heritage or its understated elegance, the Seiko Champion remains a charming piece of Japanese horological history.
