Vintage Seiko Spirit 7N48-7000 Snowflake Dial Quartz JDM 1998 Watch
Seiko remained remarkable in the 1990s, especially for their dial designs, which were simply outstanding.
This vintage Seiko watch, featuring a stunning "snowflake" dial, is a great example.
It's the reference 7N48-7000, a JDM (Japan Domestic Market) model from 1998.
Specifically, it's the SCDC001 from the 1996 catalog, originally priced at 20,000 Yen. The watch is rated for 5 ATM water resistance, though I wouldn’t recommend using it for swimming or diving, given its age.
A new battery was installed in September 2024, and both the watch, case, and strap have been ultrasonically cleaned, making it as good as new.
The time adjusts smoothly, and the quick-set function for the day and date works perfectly via the crown.
I wish more vintage Seikos were in such pristine condition! This piece also comes with its original bracelet, which shows signs of wear—proof that the previous owner certainly enjoyed it.
