► SELLER'S DESCRIPTION
For sale is an ultra-rare vintage Seiko x Playboy men’s digital wristwatch, reference Y749-4000. Produced exclusively for the Japan Domestic Market (JDM) in the 1980s, this model is a standout crossover collectible, combining Seiko’s early digital innovation with iconic Playboy branding. The watch is partially working correctly. For an unknown reason, it does not enter the chronograph mode. Aside from this issue, all other features and functions of the watch appear to be working properly, including time display, alarm, dual time, day/date, and backlight. All parts of the watch are original, including the case, crystal, metal bracelet, and the extremely rare Playboy-signed clasp. The watch is in good physical condition with signs of use and age. Photos best describe its physical condition and originality. Functions include alarm, dual time, day/date, and backlight, displayed through a classic LCD layout. The black and gold color scheme paired with unmistakable Playboy branding makes this one of the most visually distinctive and culturally iconic digital watches of the 1980s.
