Couldn't help myself with these just had to have them. Not everyone's cup of tea but very 70's cool

They're great, I have a drawer full of those. Picked them up for next to nothing. I never wear them but from time to time I get them out to have a look at them. All pretty beaten up and nowhere near as nice as yours but they all work and hold a certain attraction.

I like them, the case shape is classic for that time period, but can still hold up to modern pieces of today. Very cool trio!

Very outdated look which was dated and in fashion back then. So what?! It makes them look so vintage now and so cool to wear on the wrist!

I think they are becoming quite collectable now prices for good quality ones around £150/200 mark some of the Bullheads in A1 condition are £500ish. I love em and will probably have to buy a UFO and a Bullhead to sort of complete my vintage Seiko collection. Would love the Ananta but just can't quite bring myself round to parting with my hard earned.

Thanks for your comments chaps and have a good Christmas

All the best Phil

I'm quite a sucker for good last 60's / early 70's style case. Nice pieces.

My dad had/has the same watch, (the gold dial one)
I used to look at it on hIs wrist while he was driving when I was a kid.
It's the one that got me interested I'm watches
I believe it's still around somewhere at the back of a drawer.
