Following on from last year, the reissued model has become a regular product.
The Seiko Credor 1st, commonly known as the "Locomotive," has become a hot topic.
The watch's unique design still exudes an air of innovation.
Designers include Patek Philippe Nautilus and Audemars Piguet Royal Oak.
Gerald Genta has designed many masterpieces.
He is also the creator of the luxury sports watch genre.
He is the most famous genius watch designer.
This watch was born in 1979.
This was just before the spread of quartz watches swept the world in what would later be known as the "Quartz Shock."
It's hard to imagine now, but
There was a time when battery-powered watches were more expensive than mechanical watches.
The choice of movement and designer was a sign of foresight.
I can't help but feel like it's fate.
The design of the watch is said to have been inspired by a locomotive.
The design of the bezel, watch body and bracelet is one piece.
I feel it has something in common with the Nautilus and Royal Oak.
The crown is set at the 4 o'clock position, giving it a Seiko feel.
The movement is caliber 5932A.
It is a movement with a date and a quick-change function.
This became the basis for today's conventional quartz movements.
From here, the machine rapidly evolved into a smaller and thinner one.
This mechanism, which can be said to date back to the dawn of quartz watches, is something that can only be seen in vintage models.
It was a very large watch for that time,
The bracelet has a strong tapered design from the body to the buckle.
The atmosphere of the 1970s really comes through.
The reissue model features a new automatic movement and bright titanium exterior.
It is certainly not the same as the original from that time.
The unique atmosphere and details of vintage models,
The sense of that historical background has an irreplaceable charm.
Personally, I think mechanical watches are fine and quartz watches are bad.
Each product has its own history, and each manufacturer has gone through trial and error to get to where they are today.
It is precisely because watches can convey such things that they are interesting.
Vintage watches are watches that only gain more depth with the passage of time.
The charm that can only be felt from something from that time is truly wonderful!
