Alba V501-0FC0 Vintage – April 1996

£29.99

A beautifully presented vintage Alba dress watch dating to April 1996. Alba is part of the Seiko family, offering accessible Japanese watches backed by Seiko's long-established watchmaking heritage.

The V501-0FC0 features a crisp white dial with distinctive stylised Arabic numerals, elegant black hands and a polished silver-tone case. Its compact proportions and simple three-hand layout give it a classic, understated appearance typical of smaller dress watches of the period.

This example has been carefully refurbished and prepared for sale with a brand-new crystal, new battery and new brown suede leather strap, which complements the clean dial and polished case beautifully.

Condition & Preparation

The case has been carefully cleaned and polished and presents very well for a watch dating from 1996. Some light signs of previous wear remain, consistent with its age and pre-owned condition.

A brand-new crystal has been fitted, providing a clean, clear view of the dial. The watch has also received a new battery and new brown suede leather strap.

The watch has been function checked and tested for a minimum of one week prior to sale.
