A distinctive vintage Allwyn automatic wristwatch featuring a striking two-tone grey and black horizontal dial, complemented by polished stick indices, a day-date display at 3 o’clock, and classic linear hands.
The cushion-shaped stainless steel case gives the watch a bold architectural character typical of vintage watches from the 1970s–1980s. Inside, it is powered by a 21-jewel automatic mechanical movement with traditional Allwyn branding on the dial.
The stainless steel case back carries the Allwyn logo along with “ST STEEL,” water-resistance and shock-resistant markings, and reference code Y381-5010.
The watch is presented in NOS-style condition, with a clean, well-preserved stainless steel case. It is fitted with a matching aftermarket stainless steel Jubilee-style bracelet.

The bracelet fitted to this watch is aftermarket and should not be considered original to the factory piece.
Unless specifically stated otherwise, vintage watches are not pressure-tested and should not be assumed to be water-resistant, even when water-resistance markings are present on the case back.
