Orient did digital watches?
One of the niche areas of digital watch awesomeness is Orient Watch Co. - the other other Japanese watch brand, now so integrated into Seiko. However, not only does it have its own cool history which I'll briefly cover, but it has some absolutely class digital watches produced between 1975 and 1983. I cover the first watches like the 62000 , 64100, 66000 and 65000 family. Their foray into LED with Touchtron and Touchtron II , as well as Solar LED quartz. Ventures into solar with the 65800 series. As well as their ace calculator model and range of chronographs such as the Chrono deluxe. They did some fun music alarm - including one you could program and a fun memory alarm. I even cover some of the novelty watches from the 80s.
