Alba ViViDiGi Track Tech W151

For a person with so many running watches, I do surprisingly little running.

Today's watch is another of my watches aimed for sports use, and particularly running, and this time it is by the Seiko brand Alba. The watch is called the Track Tech and is part of the ViViDiGi line which was released in both the Alba and Pulsar brand names.

The design is quite curvy with a raised section around the LCD display. The LCD panel has 2 lines of digits, both with 6 digits. The top line is used for day and date, text describing the modes, and some timing features, and the bottom line is for time and the main functions. It uses the W151 module and was made in 2001 (-the calendar doesn't start until 2000,so it can't be a 1991 model). The functions include chronograph, 100 lap memory, timer, and alarm.

This particular watch had been given as a gift for someone who had reached 5 years service with the Japanese engineering company Meitec and it has thus engraved on the back plate (surprisingly in English).

The full model number is W151-4A00.
