    Something for Seiko lovers

    I know nothing about vintage seiko, but thought some might be interested in this. I was collecting a repaired clock in Kuala Lumpur today, and the clock/watchmaker (3rd generation family business) had his grandfather's collection on display.
    Apologies for the quality of the photos - iPhone only, limited angles possible and unable to control reflections

    Awesome collection...the servicing costs though I do have a soft spot for a 2-sub chrono.

    I had a set of those vintage white plastic Seiko stands and like an idiot I sold them...can't find them again for love or money!

    Luckily for him, he can do his own servicing. His son, however, who will inherit them, has no inclination to become the family's 4th generation watchmaker, so it will be his costs to bear
