WHAT WE LOVE:

Funny story with this one, after advertising the Seiko Braille watch I became interested in the other watches that Seiko had made for the visually impaired. This model was the immediate successor to the braille watch, and had a huge innovation over the previous model, if you press the button in the middle of the case the watch would read you the time. A very clever solution for the visually impaired, I’m sure you would agree.

I was very pleased to find this new old stock example, and when it arrived it had a surprise for me that I should have at least anticipated. This watch, made in Japan, and sold in Japan, speaks Japanese. So if you’re looking for a watch that can help teach you the time in Japanese, then here you go, or if you speak Japanese and you’re visually impaired, once again, here you go.

Case material is stainless steel and plastic. Box and tags only.
