Seiko has made many different 'ring' watches over the years. I remember a member on the old SCWF(about 10 years ago) who collected these little watches. I had one for a little while that I fixed for someone; not a forum person. It had the old Seiko 11 calibre hand wind movement. They're kind of cool if you like this sort of jewelry

These petite ring watches are meant for the lady. I'm pretty sure most of them would look silly on a man's hand. Some models came looking like a sphere and they would probably catch on everything. Ones like in the pic above are probably the least likely to cause troubles; at least no more so than a diamond ring.

I think it was supposed to be for golfers! Can't find it but it was similar in style to this one...
