This contest is starting to look like an "Arnie" face off. It’ll be interesting (to me anyway, but I’m sure my wife won’t agree!) to see how the Arnie’s compare to each other.

Yeah they seem to be a popular choice it seems. I think it will be interesting too to see how "in sync" these Arnies will be.

I'll enter this lovely 7546 from 1978 into the competition. Edit: of course I forgot to set the date.

I forgot to properly set the date (am pm) and forgot to adjust for daylight. In the spirit of the competition (won’t touch any setting) i’ll live with the date change at noon and keeping in mind it’s 1 hour behind.

Was going to go with a beater Swiss Army quartz, but decided to enter my newly serviced 7548-7000 from '79

Wellll it's not advertised as a high accuracy quartz watch, so will I be allowed to enter . Just to keep things interesting, as I know it's gained 5 seconds over the last 5 months. It's still a piece of history. It's a double crystal quartz (Going by the quartz logo) if its got the original movement ?

All my quartz are digital so I figure I’d post my latest restoration watch instead Meet this beautiful 7009-8200 I will post on the restoration thread later Full service and case restoration There is no reason why you can’t enter a digi. I’d like to see how one fares against the analog. I’d love to see a 0634 / 0674 or similar if you’ve got one. I’m all out of working vintage Seiko digi’s otherwise I’d post one up.
