Blast from the past

Found my first ever watch when I was digging through my office! Tried it on and it fits! Set the time to the obligatory 10:10 and thought it put it on here. Bit of a change from my usual 38-40mm range of watch sizes! I measured it with my electronic verniers and it’s 34mm lug to lug, 28mm diameter and a 13mm strap! Opened the back and it is a quartz seiko PC21S with a (predictably) dead battery

18mm lug width? I never heard of Tikkers but it looks great on you. That chonky rubber band looks crazy thick but otherwise balances nicely.

Nope, 13mm lug width. Appreciate the compliment though! The strap is quite unwieldy and I think tikkers is just one of those brands you get in a supermarket or something

What? Even I get nervous below 16mm lug width as this is pinky nail width territory that should look really effete and dinky. You have the same size wrist I do and the photos make it look like this is a perfectly acceptable fit.

I’ll measure it again in a min with a different set of verniers and report back here
