40mm HAQ quartz diver or tool watch?

[Mr Tetley]

I had a look on Yahoo Auctions, where (as JDM) they appear from time to time. A very nice NOS example just sold for ¥155,000, almost exactly £1000. These were about ¥25,000 when new (~£160). To be fair, non-mint examples fetch less.

Love these and you’ve definitely had that one too long

I also bought this more than ten years ago, I think 2011. I use it as my beater, and I like it a lot.

I’d love one of these, I’ll have to keep my eyes peeled.

My father had a Seiko perpetual calendar watch which my son now wears (sometimes). It's a real faf to reset the calendar!

I've never had to do it. The movement has a low battery indicator, and a capacitor which gives you around 10 minutes to do the battery change without having to reset the calendar.

Even on the bracelet, so light, you forget it's there.
