I don't know if today's watch is one that I've blogged before or not...
The reason is that there is no record of an orange version of this watch, so it's either and strange (and very even) discolouration of the other watch, or there was a special edition released in this colour.
Based on the style and the manufacturing date (1999), it appears to be a Frozen Wani watch by Cabane de Zucca. Normally, this watch is white/clear, however this one is completely orange. An orange version never appeared on the Zucca website, but this one has a very even colour around the whole strap and even in the inside, so it can't be sun fading. There is also no tobacco smell, so it doesn't seem like tar staining either. So it's a mystery.
The Cabane de Zucca watches are made by Seiko, and this collaboration has been running since 1995. The Frozen Wani came out in 1999 as a follow-up to the alligator watch from the 1998 Safari Zoo line.
It uses a Seiko W240 module and has stopwatch (with pace mode), timer, and alarm modes. The display is a two line LCD with day and date at the top and time below. The design looks like a small alligator which wraps around your wrist and eats it's own tail to fasten.
The full model number is W240-4120 which is the same as the normal Frozen Wani but also the original Safari Zoo alligator (so doesn't help determine if this is a separate model or not).
