Nice one Rick, quoted it so it shows up from the other page. Looks vintage-ish, as is typical from you - is it? Really like it what are the details? Let's see the Zodiac World Time one of these days soon.

Here's the Zodiac world time you requested.

The Skeleton is 69-70's vintage. It is Swiss 17 jewels. I don't wear it often, but it is quite impressive. The can be found for around $400.00

Thanks, Matt. This particular version with the teal green sunray dial was issued as part of a limited edition of 150. I was lucky enough to get one. :)

I know, Seiko, even with a Grand Seiko, but that model is one of my favorite GMTs. A 24-hour number font which makes the GMT-C's look more like something from Tag. (to me, Rolex's version of the Buck Rogers dial misstep) Also, I think a power indicator is an important complication to go along with a GMT.
