Uncommon for a reason?

So I’ve now got a variety of watches, I wasn’t on the lookout for anything in particular.

But I didn’t have a white dial at all. So I was looking through a lot of the usual suspects, when I came across this being sold in Austria. I loved the dial and indices straight away so bought it. 

Seems a bit less common to see than other Seiko’s?

Anyone know anything about this model?

Mid 90's manufacture.

Not sure if the V742 quartz movement is still in production so if it's not running well it could be a problem replacing it.
