ABOUT THIS WATCH:
Forward thinking design is what this watch was all about. The futuristic styling proved to not only be great looking, but functional as the "wedge" shape allowed for a front view of the LED which was both helpful in bright light and in driving. This particular example was the first edition 2 button model from 1976 and it's in the equally cool original plastic "pod" box. Very comfortable watch that wears larger then the dimensions would indicate.
