Playboy Y480-6490 by Seiko
One of the most traditional Japanese watch brands, Seiko. Known for its craftsmanship and distinctly Japanese design philosophy made an unexpected choice in 1979: a brand collaboration with... Playboy. Surprised? You're not alone. And yet, Seiko produced Playboy-branded watches for several years, including this particular model from the late 80s, early 90’s.
Housed in a elegantly sized 25mm base metal bezel case and powered by a Pulsar Quartz movement, this version displays the iconic Playboy Bunny on the dial. Fortunately, the original owner must have felt this watch was just a little too bold so it's remains unworn, still sporting its original tags and buckle. A curious time capsule from an unlikely partnership.
