Also add here that I suspect I need watches to be at wrist temperature and possibly on the machine longer to get a much more reliable accurate reading ! I know many of you will comment!!!

I remember back in the mid seventies when digital watches came out and I thought they were mind blowing, back then I was about 15 years old, now I collect Seiko digital watches myself and wish I did not sell some of them but I am building them back up and may start collecting some lesser branded ones too after watching your collection. I find them easier to work on than mechanical watches believe it or not. Cheers Mike.

@davidmulligan42 4 месяца назад

That first Seiko you showed (world's first chronograph) is one I used to own. I went to a local Jeweler's shop that was going out of business, and they had two of them, both NOS, just sitting in a drawer for many years. I bought the best one, which looked brand new, for $35. I put it on ebay in 2010 and two people got into a bidding war over it. It sold for around $580 to someone in Italy.

The 0634-5019 is just a superb watch. You can’t regret the past, they are still available if you have the funds to pay for them now.

Hi dude, I am seeing you from Mexico and I love your videos those are simply amazing, I had one of the Citizens that you show in the minute 22:39 DIGITAL-ANALOG, and a year ago I lost it in a car accident, but it was lost working at 100%, that watch was a birth gift from my father when I was young (about 1984) and so far it was a tremendous lost for me, anyway thank you so much for your amazing videos, thank you. 😉

Great video ,I had a few Seiko digital watches from the 80s , I still have the memory bank calendar model that I have discovered when cleaning out an old wardrobe,it has been there over 30 years ,it is unmarked and as new condition ,still keeps perfect time, Keep up the great work.

@RandallSlick 4 месяца назад

Incidentally, I had that Timex at 58:00 as a teenager. I seem to recall you could press two buttons together to sound the melody alarm, to much classroom hilarity. Good to see one again, since I've searched for a nostalgic replacement for years.

You have a very nice collection of collectables there young man! I love the fact that old digital watches are now vintage antiques lol. I remember when my mate at school had the first LED (push button to display the time) Casio, about 1977-8, we all gathered around and marvelled at this space-age Hi-Tech!

I have a chronosport digital-Analogue from 1980. It is a UDT diving model, actually a rare off-shoot by the company Scubapro. Took me years to find someone (in Australia) that could replace the movement. It works perfectly and is one of my favorite watches. Awesome video, keep them coming!

@kermitefrog64 4 дня назад

Thank you for sharing the watches. I recently got a Citizen with a black face and silver hour marks with silver hour, minute and second hands. It also has the day and date on the 3 hour mark. I like the style. It is very sharp looking.

@ednammansfield8553 4 месяца назад

I really enjoyed watching this video about these fantastic retro watches. I have quite a few Casio watches and have bought a couple of Armitron digital watches from America which is the 'Rubik' and a analogue/digital watch. I purchased them mainly because both are fully stainless steel compared with Casio which today are resin with chrome plating on them. The G-Shock you have in your collection with the stainless steel case and strap is probably the 5610 with it having both multiband 6 and radio controlled. I have two of those in my collection. Thanks for sharing your collection.

@mrdripling4192 4 месяца назад

I've got a Casio G510D I've had since it launched, one of the seals eventually failed in the caseback (way before I knew anything about repairing watches) there ended up being a bit of corrosion inside which as far as I can see, has rendered it dead. I have two of them after buying what I thought was a working donor from fleabay, you're welcome to them if you wanna have a crack at getting either/both going.

@savetommyrobinsonfreespeec7660 4 месяца назад

Wow! At 54, I remember so, so many digital watches from the 70s/80s. My first was a basic Trafalgar, then a twin faced, red and black Timex, and even a radio watch with headphones… takes me back! When at the first school a mate of mine had a red faced LED watch as big as a house brick, I was so jealous! Then to top it all off, the following year he got the James Bond themed watch! The bastard! 😂 you could tell the kids from the middle to upper classes! Cool video.

That was a cracking edition, Mike. The Trafalgar reminded me of a watch i have in the dusty back drawer, a Seiko JDM watch for the blind, speaks the time in Japanese.

Awesome mate. I've a early neg display by 'Geotime', powered by 2 2032s....it looks like it fell from space! The film watch and that big lump of cheese thing just rock! People should stop pretending they spend half their time underwater and have a bit of fun....

@yanholland315 4 месяца назад

Lovely review of your amazing collection. Spotted a Tomlov TM4K on your bench there - I can recommend using the additional provided lighting ring - it's made a huge difference to the image quality for me.

@MyRetroWatches 4 месяца назад

That’s in for review actually. Personally so far it’s not a patch on the LinkMicro I reviewed and use all the time. The Tomlov has some good features but on normal watches it can’t capture the image as clear as the LinkMicro

You have inspired me to buy a battery after a few years and revive again the Seiko 0634-5009 inherited from my dad, who got it in the 1970s during a business trip to Japan, and it was a very expensive thing for a man from the eastern side of the Iron Curtain.

@wirdy1 4 месяца назад

Thanks Mike, your selection brought back some great memories. My first digital was Commodore LED from mums catalogue, hugely expensive for an 10 yr-old in 1978, £20 payable at 50p per week for 40 weeks from pocket money. Took 2 big LR44 batteries that only lasted a couple of months as I remember. Then my first LCD was a Casio 60QS in '81 (as a 13 yr-old) that my dad.' acquired' during a maintenance job at a Casio warehouse somewhere near London. I remember impressing my schoolmates with the 1/100th second stopwatch!I still have it proudly in my collection. I have an old Witshi quartz tester and have found that many quartz crystals do stabilise over a number of weeks/months after being inactive, so let the watch run for a while before touching the trimmer. I'm sure I don't have to say be really careful with the trimmers; most haven't moved in decades, so hold with tweezers to oppose any turning force, or they can break or lift the pcb tracks. If you can't adjust enough, a tiny gimmick capacitor can be made with some fine transformer enameled wire, twisted & soldered onto the trimmer contacts. Twist & untwist until the value is about right to get the rate down on your tester.

@P_Ezi 4 месяца назад

Good advice about the trimmer caps

@MyRetroWatches 2 месяца назад

Thanks for your advise on trimmers. I dont think i would go to the extreme of making a tiny capacitor, I like to repair mechanical watches so electronics and soldering irons are not a skill set I posses. The commodore, was it the red LED version? I have that model. One of my favorites.

@dougieranger Месяц назад

Brilliant collection. Good health to wear them mate.

@munnsie100 Месяц назад

Great video! Something struck me - the Casiotron 76CS-41 shown at 10:15 has an almost (or potentially) identical bracelet (and clasp) to my late 1970s Omega digital (1616). How fascinating!

Extensive and interesting presentation 🙂 I was waiting on you start to tweak the time-base, but I probably misunderstood in the beginning. One possible reason for the deviation, beside temperature you mentioned, could be the battery voltage.

@WrightsW5 4 месяца назад

A great collection of digital watches there! I've got various, one of them is very similar to your first Seiko from the £58 joblot, mine is branded Le Gant, eventually a Seiko brand, with a Hamazawa (Seiko) module, i've got one well worn one i've had years, and a NOS one in the box that I got a few months ago, you might like this bit, it was from Coventry, Rhode Island ☺

@Ravikumar1962 4 месяца назад

Nice collection. I lost some of old digital watches

@WrightsW5 4 месяца назад

Something I had been trying to remember, I tracked it down, 10 years ago I had an LCD watch branded National Semiconductor, early 70s, had a tritium gas backlight, a thin wide flat tube. I also had an analogue quartz by them with promethium lume.

@chrisbircham221 4 месяца назад

Love my Seiko 0634. Had several led watches prior but they only ever lasted a couple of weeks. I paid £165.00 for it new in 1976 when I was 18...Still works absolutely fine. wore it every day for years as my main timepiece. It's a bit scratched but i'm not bothered about that. Bought several Seiko's since. all fine...currently using the 7T34-6A90.

The Casio Casiotron QW02 was equipped with the world’s first watch calendar that automatically adjusted for longer and shorter months. With a conventional watch, it was necessary to reset the calendar date on the first of each month, but the QW02 eliminated this hassle.

@samsheikh3464 4 месяца назад

Absolutely Fandabidozi Michael… Beltime my first digital watch Mum bought it me on my birthday from Dixons £14.99 a lot of money in 1978 -79 a choice between Alba and Beltime Swiss Made…. I thought Alba… didn’t they make cheap TV’s with Bush… didn’t know at the time it was a Seiko brand…. Anyhow some bugger nicked it during the PE lesson when all valuables were put into a tin box for safe keeping by the teacher… never got it back… cried all the way home… I was so proud of that watch still clear in my mind to this day… I hope who ever nicked it got his comeuppance..

@Mat-345 3 месяца назад

Thank you very much for the video. The ugly duckling from Citizen is my absolut favourite Digi-Ana. I got it brand new in 1979 as christmas gift from my parents (but with the more conservative crystal colour scheme black and dark gray) using it as my daily watch until 1996. Actually the watch is still working with all functions and very good timekeeping. I am trying to restore it carefully step by step (case etc.) and collected a new crystal, a new original bracelet and original seals as spare parts until now. For me it is still a dream of my childhood. My current daily LCD-Watch is a nice modern Casiotron TRN 50 which I got as a gift from my wife one month ago but I still prefer the design of the ugly ducking vintage Citizen Digi Ana.😅

@mike-yn3mn 4 месяца назад

The quartz tester is an intriguing bit of kit. And a very nice look at a under appreciated genre of watches. Digital Seiko's were good enough for James Bond in the 70's and 80's!

@MrGrentch 4 месяца назад

My dad bought the big calculator watch back in the 70's. I still have it and the stylus too. :) The screen is very faded, though the watch itself is like new and the calc buttons are still responsive. I remember it being expensive, but don't know how much he paid. In 82 I got the 'baby' one for a Christmas present. It still works too, though the case wears my teenage years. :)

@SideWalkAstronomyNetherlands 2 месяца назад

Got me a Casio too, Casio W217HM-7BVEF, the one with the dark screan, which looks great but a bit hard to read in the evening... It runs on time, same as my computer even. Got the Skmei, the Casio and a mystery brand Chinese copy of the Skmei, all set one one beep on the hour, the cheap one, runs fast more than a second a day.. So I reset them all three now and than.. :) In 30 years they all will be rare :)

@christophermarshall5765 3 месяца назад

One seiko watch you might want to look at is the M421-5010. It’s a digital watch. It has dual time zone, stop watch, two alarms, and countdown timer. It will also operate in 24 hours mode, and has a light. Water resistance of 100m.

@chrischarlton422 4 месяца назад

I remember early digitals around '77, '78 in primary school, they were round cased LCDs with central letterbox screens. I didn't rate them as i had more exciting looking and less common LED type. Fast forward to secondary school and it was a sea of commodores, casio databanks, calcuators, melody's, and games. (Oh and the cool kids with new-fangled Swatch watches) I am now trying to collect every model i had as a kid in order. Led, databank, calculator, calculator flip, etc. The best memory was sitting in an exam and hearing about 150 hourly chimes together! BEE-beeepBEEEEEPYbeep-beepBEEPeep!

Fun memories. Another oddity of that time was that just a few years after the LCD digital watches were introduced, modules were showing up in pens, and digital watches quickly became very inexpensive.

59:37 - It's called Number Invaders probably. I had a very similar model to yours. After much practice I managed to cope with its maximum speed when I was a kid. I only stopped the game as my mum needed me 🙂. I still have it but sadly it succumbed to total LCD bleed many years ago 😞.

I have that watch also (Casio CA-851). I used to own a resin version (CA-85), which I once managed to play for hours until the score counter maxed out and reset back to the start!
