I almost bought that watch,really a geeky n made famous collectable watch. I was then active in vintage digital calculator forum and have been spending good time researching,trading on vintage casio/seiko digitals there.

Trouble is the condition that you can find plus the price you have to pay for it. And also the full functionality of it. Many of the geek watch collectors I know do repair/troublshoot their vintage digitals as that makes collecting easier.

I actually have to search Internet to find the pic. I'm surprised Seiko actually did such watches in the 90s! Does it still work? The recording etc?
