Seiko Dress Watch


Recommended Posts

I acquired this a while back on eBay. Any idea as to it's date. I've tried the Seiko watchfinder on the net but all it can tell me it was made in September 00 but can't give a decade ?

It's fitted with a Seiko 6G28 quartz movement has a snap back with o ring gasket, measures 37mm across and fitted and fitted with a flat sapphire crystal. I'm guessing year 2000 ?

I thought 00 would be 2000???

I can't really see it being earlier with it's specs. Seiko still produce an identical watch but it has Premier under the logo and 3atm rating. This watch has neither. They still use the 6G28 movement. I don't think it's a cheapy, fitted with a sapphire crystal.
Many thanks for your reply.

For Seiko serial numbers..

1st digit  = year (you need to have an idea of the time it was built..eg 0 could be 1990 or 2000.

2nd digit = month . 1-9 followed by O,N,D for Oct, Nov and Dec.

Citizen uses the 1st digit in the same way but the 2nd and 3rd digit denotes the month (01,02...11,12).

sorry cant add more info. what is the full reference on the caseback?

Hi Anilv,
The case number is 6G28-00C0 and the serial number is 090056.
All I can get is the watch was produced in Sept and the beginning of the decade. The only similar watches I can find appear in the "Premier" range I thought it might just predate this but some research has indicated that the Premier was probably introduced in 1988. I don't believe this watch to be that old. So dead end. I'm thinking 1990, probably 2000, could be 2010.
Many thanks for your assistance.

Hi Tony,

The marketing model number is SRK015P1 (or similar but changes would be only to case colour and band type). If you google this you'll still see this sold new at a number of online vendors so it should be 2010.

Another option is to join a Seiko specific forum as there are a lot of guys there who keep brochures and would probably be able to give a definite answer.

    • Dell fancy a challenge🤣   https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/285785684626?itmmeta=01HT29WVJY21Q94C73GYHGBTFX&hash=item428a277a92:g:15YAAOSwNRVmBAUz&itmprp=enc%3AAQAJAAAA0DIe4QLQBW66rSyIMiyBuk8GY%2B86pQ%2BQnxGbcNq7egAGe5DIs9YMmiWJIbZtMSxwNJIiJxuojbq523IeUSBQ6pJEIQ0tfz2ChrBR03BksmKINyklg1IK4GAfAcYY9Hta9wVeSZSZN7ZCNAfZTgKs9c4%2BUIUZ3Qjc3QjUXDn2uPRo1FiYOEewMG5A26EXb%2BclBgrqtbOmM6P3bea%2F8ZImOAXNI1HtbmtMk84pIGoM6ISwaM1PKFuADtTFMccS5e3ZjndCbXYXHrW3CecsV0edw3M%3D|tkp%3ABk9SR8q588nQYw Darwin’s theory of evolution has not been proven to be absolutely.  😀 
    • A already know the size movement I have the problem is the dial a had purchased has a dimension 20.6mm wide a want to find a watch case that going to fit the dial perfectly 
    • Hi.  I would like to take issue here regarding battery driven , watches, clocks,etc. I will and do repair these clocks in fact I have sever al in my collection as well as the regular mechanical ones. I have one on my mantle piece over 60 years old tha belonged to my wife’s Aunt,  long gone Iam afraid and it has been cleaned etc and never missed a beat and is accurate. Every one has their preduices as regards Electrical /electronic Horology but I regard it as part of the progress time line of the art of Horology and to be treated as such. Like Darwin’s theory of evolution it evolved.  Two cavemen knocking rocks together and a shard broke off , looking at it he worked out if it was stuck on the end of a stick he would have a spear. Likewise his pal seeing what he was up to picked up a piece  and did the same, now that’s evolution. Some clockmaker decided to build a clock that ran with a battery and no spring to wind up and break, progress and both the mechanical and battery driven clocks evolved, the battery ones got better to the point that if it broke you changed the complete unit. Likewise watches did the same but both can be repaired by people who approach Horology with an open mind without preduice.  We all have our likes and dislikes bu I for one would never dismiss any technology because I don’t like it.   The mobile phone is a good example of modern technology at work as is the automotive industry. There buttons and switches in my car I don’t use because to me they are not nesessary but I still drive the car.
    • I haven't gone through all the reading of what it might be or not. The first thing I would do if nothing obvious stands out is replace the mainspring, you have to start at the source of the power. Nine times out of ten that is the problem.  
    • Haha. You're just in a wicked mood today John 😅
