SEIKO 74's / DELICA / Cal. 2415

Introducing the 1974 Seiko "Delica."

The Seiko "Delica" is a series of mechanical watches for women that was launched in the 1970s, a period when design diversification was gaining momentum.

At the time, Seiko released many models that emphasized not only practicality but also beauty and individuality as accessories. As one of these models, the Delica incorporated high mechanical precision and elegant design into a compact size.

■ Dial & Case Design

The glossy wine-red dial features a gradient finish that changes shade depending on the angle of the light.
The depth of color, which shifts from the center to the periphery, creates different impressions depending on the viewing angle.

The three-dimensional bar indices are delicately cut to catch the light and sparkle sharply, adding definition to the compact dial.
The linear hour and minute hands and the 3 o'clock date display are also cleanly arranged, ensuring readability as a timepiece while accentuating the unique dial.

The case adopts a three-dimensional form composed of multiple facets.
The seamless integration with the genuine Seiko bracelet, which connects naturally from the case, makes the watch appear as a single piece of jewelry.

From the dial and case to the bracelet, this is a piece that encapsulates the distinct color and aesthetic beauty characteristic of the 1970s.

■ Movement

The movement is the automatic "Cal. 2415" manufactured by Daini Seikosha.
Despite its compact design, with a diameter of approximately 19mm and a thickness of approximately 4.4mm, it is a high-beat movement operating at 28,800 vibrations per hour and features 23 jewels.

It includes a manual winding function and a quick-set date mechanism, designed with the user-friendliness of a small watch in mind.
Another feature is the 2-hand configuration without a second hand, which keeps the dial looking clean and uncluttered.

It is a movement that showcases the technical prowess of Seiko at the time, packing a full-fledged automatic mechanism into a compact case.

■ Styling

Case size: Length 31.2mm (including lugs) / Width 26.8mm (including crown) / Thickness 8.7mm / Weight 36g (including strap)

The deep wine-red dial adds a beautiful accent to outfits with calm tones such as black, gray, or navy.
It pairs well with simple styles featuring shirts or knits, as well as more elegant attire like jackets or dresses.

The genuine bracelet, which feels integrated with the case, has an accessory-like brilliance and gives the wrist a clean, refined look.
Although originally marketed for women, the size and design can be enjoyed by anyone today.

Recommended for those looking for a compact and unique vintage watch.

● Important Information Regarding Antique Watch Purchases ●

At RESUME, rather than delivering watches immediately upon purchase, we commission professional technicians to perform an overhaul (OH). Watches are delivered after the OH is complete (this process takes approximately 1 to 2 months).

A certified first-class watch repair technician will perform a complete disassembly, replacement of wear-prone parts such as internal gaskets, cleaning, and lubrication, ensuring the watch is adjusted to maintain accuracy within ±1 minute per day.
Upon delivery, we will include our store's unique OH certificate along with photos taken during the disassembly and maintenance process, detailing the work performed.

Due to the nature of pre-owned products, we cannot guarantee they will never break down. However, we take these steps to ensure you can enjoy the original performance of your timepiece and use it with peace of mind. We appreciate your understanding.

We provide a 1-year warranty period for all purchases, depending on the model. Even after this period expires, we are happy to assist with repairs for a fee. Please feel free to contact us even if there is no repair shop near you.
