Seiko V.F.A 3923 "Blinky"

Can't really see the flashing LED in the sun though.

Is that that manually-wound quartz Seiko? It looks awesome!

Manually-wound quartz? The only quartz that was "charged" by turning the crown is the early Seiko AGS.

Ah, that was the one I was thinking of! I remember hearing something about a vintage quartz Seiko charged with the crown and that they weren't all too efficient. Thanks for clearing that up.

So, what's that little light for then?

It blinks with the seconds. It functions as a running indicator and when it starts to not be very bright you know to change the cells.

V.F.A. stands for "Very Fine Adjusted" I see how you could get it mixed up with AGS.
