Seiko Wired Buckle Watch W543

While collecting, I end up with very interesting watches that aren't really my style, and today it's one of those.

The watch is a ladies watch and part of Seiko's high tech Wired brand. It also seems this is a Japanese only model, and it was released in 2004.

It has a very unusual strap arrangement where the strap is only connected to the head on one side. The other side has a loop which the loose end of the strap goes through, and then this clips back on itself to hold the watch in place. The strap is pink leather, and has a part number of B24.

The display on the watch is a thin 6 digit white and silver LCD display, with the digits split into pairs. The 3 buttons are above the display, and inside the loop where the strap threads. The mode button switches between time and date (which has text above the numbers to say which is year, month, and date), and the other two are for up and down on the time adjustment.

It's original sale price was 15,750 yen, and the catalogue number was AGDL029. The full model number is W543-0AB0
