Seiko Art-Deco Mother-of-Pearl Dress Watch — August 1987

A striking example of Seiko’s late-1980s design excellence, this elegant dress watch features a genuine mother-of-pearl dial set within a sculptural, stepped square case inspired by classic Art-Deco architecture. Manufactured in August 1987, the luminous dial shifts beautifully between soft white, silver, and pearl tones as it catches the light, creating a refined, jewelry-like presence on the wrist.

The gold-tone case and original integrated bracelet offer a bold yet balanced silhouette, while the ultra-reliable Seiko quartz movement ensures effortless everyday precision. Designed specifically for smaller wrists, this watch provides rare vintage sizing and exceptional comfort — a true statement piece that remains timeless in both form and function.
