Was wearing this model on our wedding day in 1982. That one was stolen when our house was burglarized, but I got a replacement.

Never understood the appeal of these - had one and found it awkward to use while worn.

Re: Vintage Seiko Bullhead
The appeal was to make it, functionally, more like the long-established stop watch.
From that tactical/functional perspective it is significantly easier to time an object when held as a conventional stop watch.

Turns out… they are an excruciating pain in the ass when setting or adjusting the current time.
But I dig them
