[Timestamp](https://postimg.cc/nXn55JtW) **For the discerning Seiko enthusiast,** this January 1980 Seiko 5 (Ref. 6349-6050) — nicknamed **“Timeworn Legend”**— embodies a moment when bold geometry, refined textures, and mechanical reliability converged in one sharply executed package. Starting from the dial it has the so-called **“BMW dial”**, defined by a crosshair-style brushed texture that catches and shifts with the light, creating depth and quiet dynamism. Gold-tone dauphine hands and a matching seconds hand sweep over an elegant index set: gem-set markers at 12, 6, and 9, with polished gold ball-dot markers completing the sequence. At 3 o’clock, a framed day-date complication rests under the protection of its **original Hardlex crystal**. The bezel, crafted in Seiko’s premium **HGC (Hard Gold Coating)**, retains its warm hue decades later. Its honest vintage marks are not flaws, but the visible chapters of its 45-year journey — the kind of character that can’t be replicated. Inside, the **23-jewel automatic cal.6349** beats with the reliability of a true Seiko workhorse from the era. The stainless-steel square case wears a confident **36mm** and is paired with its original, rarely-seen bracelet — bar-style links joined by three visible pins — a charmingly unconventional and quirky design choice that sets it apart from typical Seiko 5 offerings of its time. **🔹 Dimensions** • Case Diameter: *36mm* (without crown) • Lug-to-Lug: *39mm* • Lug Width: *20mm* • Thickness: *9mm* **💵 Price:** $123! **🛳️ Shipping:** via UPS **📦 Payment:** PayPal F&F or G&S (+4.5% international fee) 📩 DM for additional photos or a custom timestamp.
