Rare Vintage Seiko Quartz 4336-8050

Dial: Original, Snowflake Patina - Textured, shimmering surface created through a unique reflective finish known among collectors as the "Snowflake" or Taisetsu dial. The Japanese word Taisetsu translates to "important" or "cherished"
This dial has aged naturally, developing a soft patina with gentle discoloration and marks. These imperfections add personality and make the watch truly unique, showing its history and giving it a warm, vintage feel. Small discolouration near the date window, please check pictures and video.
