Seiko vintage quartz is so underrated. Those 70 and 80s pieces were beautifully built, jeweled and ahead of their time.
Coffee dial variant of the 4006-6021 (1971). First watch given to me in the mid-70s. Did not wear it for 43 years. Got a service and it now ticks along beautifully!
I have a Bambino with champagne dial. Great watch. On the time grapher it displays 0 sec deviation after two years. Incredible.
If a watch has the pedigree and proof of being a standard within a conflict zone, then it's legit. From G-Shock to 62MAS, Citizen Pro master to CWC. The rest are just cool homages, there to be collected and enjoyed.
