The story behind this watch is the "electric blue" Seamaster was the first Seamaster I can remember seeing, trying on and liking. I've probobly owned a dozen Seamaster variants, but this one is the most attractive, IMHO.
I bought this one new 2 years ago, sold it to a buddy a year ago, and recently traded a couple of lower-end watches to him to get it back.
I also just got a 2nd Orbita watch winder. For those of you who don't know, mechanical watches with an automatic movement will stay wound as long you keep 'em moving (like when you wear them). A watch winder just simulates the motion a watch receives while its being worn...and serves as a dandy place to store and display your watches:
Here's my other Orbita - the Quatro Executive with built in digital clock which syncs to the atomic clock radio signal...perfect for setting your watches too. :rocks: I call it, "the Rolex Condo."

OMG, how funny... the last poster revived this thread in order to ask for advice on a $150 watch and you somehow can't resist showing off your latest acquistion with your infamous wrist shot..
P.S. To the last poster, for your budget I would defintely go with a Seiko..Citizen would be my second choice and fossil is probably the worst in terms of reliability.IF you do decide to go with Seiko, try Ebay, you might be able to find a new Seiko Knetic for around $150 and you'll never need to buy a battery for it
