Seiko (SII) Snow White Wristwatches

In the 1990s, Seiko Instruments International (SII) produced an array of Disney character watches, including a few Snow White examples. The "Since 1928" series was quite popular. With retro artwork and vintage detailing, the timepieces are still favorites with some collectors.
