Here's a poor mans watch
77152146358.JPG

Anybody know what watch this is (exact model name, I see it says Seiko 23 Jewels) ?
and how much it costs?

In the market for a watch with a brown leather band with a white face. Looking at the Timex 1600 but I like this Seiko more

Seiko Blue Spark. No longer made. I had one and sold it. Great looking watch, but I just didn't wear it that much.:confused:

I'm kind of interested in finding something similar to the Jaeger lecoultre Taille Grande Reverso shape . Not really interesting the Armani ones easily found nor any other fashion branded ones. Something by a watch maker but pretty low cost (and elegant). Preferably with a dark brown strap, hands contrasting the face (dark against white or cream).
Any suggestions?

That is the beloved, and discontinued, Seiko "Blue Spark"

There are a couple in one my books. Probably 1940ish. Probably worth $100 or so in Mint.

No idea who made them.

Picking up a Vanda order (I miss having a doorman) with SKX007 - the platonic form of a beater watch.

Looking at selling my (basically brand new) Tsovet LX73 with Black case/dial, brown strap.

Also considering selling my MINT, recently serviced Omega Speedmaster Automatic.

PM me if you're interested in either.
