OK, since someone has posted the Crown Chronographs, let's add this one ... likely the MOST unusual and elusive of the entire Seiko line-up: Yeah, the calibre 571 8!

Not so much unusual but it is SEIKO Alba ROOX line and domestic only. Under $200 new, the case styling is nice and the clarity of the hands against the dark dial is really good for such an inexpensive watch....the original leather strap was well worn so I installed a spare strap...

I've only been collecting Seikos for a few years, but I look out for these pretty much every day. One of these days.... Well, you could be looking for a loooonnnnggg time for a "presentable" example! I've only heard about a couple for sale in my years. One was up for auction here in the Philippines a few years ago & had replacement parts and other "problems" for being a true collectible condition specimen. Starting Price was quite "hefty" as well. I didn't go for it. Heard of another FS on a forum around that time & it probably was in better shape, but not sure if it sold. Not impossible, but quite unlikely!! You may have to "settle" for a rather "frankened" example though.
