My first inherited piece!
My significant other texted me the other day asking if I’d wear a watch her dad had found in her grandfather’s belongings and got running again. All I knew was it was an old digital Seiko from the 70s. Of course I said yes. Got this vintage beauty in the mail today, cleaned her up, and here’s the final product! A Seiko A159 with stopwatch, alarm, and day/date function. To imagine the things this piece has been through…and it’s still got a whole lot of life left!

When watches stopped just being a cool way to accessorize and turned into works of art on the wrist, I fell off the deep end into the world of watches...based in Seattle, lover of coffee, the outdoors...

Exactly! He was a math professor who taught all over the world so the miles and sights comment is spot on
