A properly interesting watch. How much was it new?
Thanks. Apparently it was about £800 in 1973
One of my most precious watches because it was my Dad's, he looked at the same numbers that I do when I wear it. I have both my Grandfather's watches too, neither is anything special but both priceless, when I wind them it's a physical connection to them doing the same, I look down on the same dial and hands that they did... I can't help but think of them whn I wear them. I'm a sentimental sod.

Just for you then, Seiko 0614-5000. I inherited this from my Dad who bought it new in Japan, unfortunately the original strap is long gone.
World's first digital lcd quartz watch and the world's first titanium cased watch too.
