The solid 18k yellow gold case is finished on the upper surface with a fluid and sculptural undulation, reminiscent of a series of golden waves that appear to overlap. The visual effect is truly extraordinary. This timepiece is powered by the Seiko 16-A movement, a 15.1 mm x 13 mm ovoid quartz caliber. It features 5 jewels, and the quartz crystal oscillates at a frequency of 32.768 Hz.","breadcrumb":{"@id":"https:\/\/thevintageur.com\/shop\/seiko-golden-waves-ref-18-3119-d-solid-18k-yellow-gold-case-in-house-16-a-quartz-movement-from-the-1980s\/#breadcrumb"},"inLanguage":"fr-FR","potentialAction":[{"@type":"ReadAction","target":["https:\/\/thevintageur.com\/shop\/seiko-golden-waves-ref-18-3119-d-solid-18k-yellow-gold-case-in-house-16-a-quartz-movement-from-the-1980s\/"]}]},{"@type":"ImageObject","inLanguage":"fr-FR","@id":"https:\/\/thevintageur.com\/shop\/seiko-golden-waves-ref-18-3119-d-solid-18k-yellow-gold-case-in-house-16-a-quartz-movement-from-the-1980s\/#primaryimage","url":"https:\/\/thevintageur.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/SEIKO-3-IWS.jpg","contentUrl":"https:\/\/thevintageur.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/SEIKO-3-IWS.jpg","width":2560,"height":2560},{"@type":"BreadcrumbList","@id":"https:\/\/thevintageur.com\/shop\/seiko-golden-waves-ref-18-3119-d-solid-18k-yellow-gold-case-in-house-16-a-quartz-movement-from-the-1980s\/#breadcrumb","itemListElement":[{"@type":"ListItem","position":1,"name":"Home","item":"https:\/\/thevintageur.com\/"},{"@type":"ListItem","position":2,"name":"Shop","item":"https:\/\/thevintageur.com\/it\/negozio\/"},{"@type":"ListItem","position":3,"name":"Seiko &#8220;Golden Waves&#8221; Ref. 18-3119-D Solid 18K Yellow Gold Case In-House 16-A Quartz Movement From the 1980s"}]},{"@type":"WebSite","@id":"https:\/\/thevintageur.com\/#website","url":"https:\/\/thevintageur.com\/","name":"Le Vintageur","description":"Votre collection de montres sur mesure","publisher":{"@id":"https:\/\/thevintageur.com\/#organization"},"potentialAction":[{"@type":"SearchAction","target":{"@type":"EntryPoint","urlTemplate":"https:\/\/thevintageur.com\/?s={search_term_string}"},"query-input":{"@type":"PropertyValueSpecification","valueRequired":true,"valueName":"search_term_string"}}],"inLanguage":"fr-FR"},{"@type":"Organization","@id":"https:\/\/thevintageur.com\/#organization","name":"Le Vintageur","url":"https:\/\/thevintageur.com\/","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","inLanguage":"fr-FR","@id":"https:\/\/thevintageur.com\/#\/schema\/logo\/image\/","url":"https:\/\/thevintageur.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/logo-dark.svg","contentUrl":"https:\/\/thevintageur.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/logo-dark.svg","width":392,"height":28,"caption":"The Vintageur"},"image":{"@id":"https:\/\/thevintageur.com\/#\/schema\/logo\/image\/"},"sameAs":["https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/vintageur\/"]}]},"product_price_currency":"EUR","og_availability":"instock","product_availability":"instock","product_retailer_item_id":"SEIKO IWS","product_condition":"new"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/thevintageur.com\/fr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product\/63059","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/thevintageur.com\/fr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/thevintageur.com\/fr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/product"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/thevintageur.com\/fr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=63059"}],"version-history":[{"count":3,"href":"https:\/\/thevintageur.com\/fr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product\/63059\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":64161,"href":"https:\/\/thevintageur.com\/fr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product\/63059\/revisions\/64161"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/thevintageur.com\/fr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/63062"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/thevintageur.com\/fr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=63059"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"product_brand","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/thevintageur.com\/fr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product_brand?post=63059"},{"taxonomy":"product_cat","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/thevintageur.com\/fr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product_cat?post=63059"},{"taxonomy":"product_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/thevintageur.com\/fr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product_tag?post=63059"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
