Seiko Solar Chronograph 100M Watch (Model Series V175)

This is a Seiko Solar Powered Chronograph sports watch, likely from the early to mid-2010s. The piece features a black ion-plated stainless steel case and a matching black link bracelet. The watch face is a deep black dial with three sub-dials: a 60-minute stopwatch at the bottom, a 24-hour indicator at the top, and a small second hand at the nine o'clock position. It is accented with high-contrast yellow elements, including the central chronograph second hand and a yellow ring surrounding the tachymeter scale on the fixed outer bezel. The dial includes applied silver-tone hour markers and a date window located at the three o'clock position. Text on the dial includes 'SEIKO', 'CHRONOGRAPH 100M', and 'SOLAR', alongside the movement reference 'V175-0AD8 HR 2' at the very bottom. Condition-wise, the watch shows significant signs of wear. Heavy surface scratches and scuffing are visible across the Hardlex mineral crystal, particularly on the right side. The black PVD coating on the bezel and lugs shows thinning and silvering at the edges, indicating frequent use. This specific colorway—black with yellow accents—is characteristic of Seiko's sportier automotive-inspired designs featuring Caliber V175 solar-powered quartz movements.
