Up for sale is a Seiko h556-5029 sports 100 alarm-chronograph 'pre arnie or baby arnie' ana-digi watch. (1982 I think.)This particular watch was never worn daily and so iv listed it as new old stock, due to its pristine condition. The reason for this is believed to have been a defect in the lume squares at the 4, 5 and 6 positions. This has thus kept this example form general sale upon distribution and has resulted in the only 'as new' example iv ever seen??Id planned to get the lume professionally re done or else swop a good dial, but just never quite got round to it. It didnt bother me that much really.Condition is very very good, the case is spotless and the bezel ring and crystal are pristine also, as are pushers and crown.Comes on its original bracelet which i sized for my just a tad above 7.5'' wrist, and has the 4 original spare links as well.This has the H556 module with 3 jewel stepper motor configuration and its quartz crystal oscilator does 32,768 hz/cycles per second. It can also be regulated/fine-adjusted with its rotary step switch, a sign of the quality modules seiko used to mass market in the 80's.Functions of the module include, alarm, light, stopwatch, dual time mode (useful for traveling across time zones etc) thus giving a tri-time format if required, 12/24 hour time display formats, day/date display which corresponds
