Vintage Seiko Silverwave 8229-8000 1982
Great Vintage Seiko Silverwave Watch with reference 8229-8000 produced in 1982 featuring Kanji/English day display and a screw-down crown, housed in a 36mm case from the Suwa factory. It's a standout piece with a beautifully applied logo on the dial, slim black hands. Nice detail is the mirrored chapter ring that enhances the silver linnen dial perfectly.
The Silverwave series was known for its enhanced water resistance, indicated by the screw-down crown and "double" tsunami wave on the case back, but as it is a vintage watch, I cannot guarantee this for daily use.
Watch has received a fresh battery to ensure perfect working condition, keeps time and quicksets day/date.
The crystal has scratches, you can purchase a seperate fitting XMF300 crystal here or I can replace the crystal for you here.
This is model PFW010 costing 28,000 Yen back in 1981.
