From the watches I've blogged so far, we've seen that Casio and Swatch do colourful design watches. Today, I can add the Seiko brand Alba to the list.
The watch is part of a range called Spire-G. Several watches were released under that label, but they weren't all colourful. A lot of them seem to be designed to be competitors to the Swatch watches though. Not much information is available that isn't in Japanese, so I think this was a Japan only range.
This model uses a V811 module, and is a basic 3-hand dial watch. The face and strap are covered in patterns in a multitude of colours, but the pallette seems very 80s.
The strap also has the text Spire-G 19XX From Beyond A Wave.
The full model number is V811-2250, and it looks like it could be from 1993 (maybe 83). It was originally sold for 5500 yen, and had a catalogue number of AMJF011.
