Recently I fell down the eBay vintage watch rabbit hole, and this is the result! Three weeks to get here from Pakistan but totally worth it! I was looking for more of a tool watch for daily wear. For me, I prefer quartz as a daily because I prefer to pick up my watch and have it be the right time and not have to worry around winding and resetting and such. I also love the retro futuristic kind of aesthetic shown in the hands, the font, and the bezel design. What do you guys think? Anyone else have experience with Alba?

Isn't Alba a Seiko brand name ? Not sure, but like the watch👍

I go down the Ebay vintage rabbit hole from time to time, too. Ordered two 80's Orient Tristar's to scratch that vintage itch. 😄

Yeah from what I understand they're a sister company to Seiko mostly marketed in Asia. They made some pretty interesting and maybe out -there designs
