I was quite surprised by the attention from fellow readers that my Perpetual Calendar has attracted since its initial posting. I Googled online and there was one for sale at RM1,300 as per the following :
Another reader, Brian e-mailed me that he sold his for RM1,380 to another interested party yesterday. Looks like this tough little bird of a Seiko Perpetual Calendar lives to die another day, to borrow a quote from James Bond.
From Seiko's website ie http://www.seikowatches.com/products/index.html, it looks like Perpetual Calendar is no longer featured as one of the products offered. Looks like a good collectible for the near future then.
My Dad used to be a watchsmith- and I grew up watching him taking watches apart for servicing and repair works, before re-assembling all the tiny parts into fully-working items of marvel again. It's no surprise then that I was intrique into the world of watches since a young age. P/S : This is a watch site from an enthusiast to fellow enthusiasts, so you won't be bothered by adverts here. Just pure watch-reading fun, if you're into this. Enjoy the ride...
