What's The Story On These "Wired" Watches?

[trandy]

I keep seeing these "Wired" brand of watches that are supposed to be affiliated somehow with Seiko.

Can anyone enlighten me?

I saw this new limited edition digital offering from them....looks interesting.

thats a very cool watch and looks to be a sort of G757 re-issue, the Wired brand is Seiko's equivalent of the citizen Independent brand aimed at young Asian markets mostly

Definitely a Bond Octopussy "homage"



For all of you saying Seiko should do a 6105 reissue take a look at how they "interpreted" this one and picture the same makeover on the 6105 design

I just came from a recent trip to Japan. Spotted this at a train station while transferring tracks. Quick check and told the guy I was going back for it, had to see first if bic and yodobashi still had them. Quick search also says these were 2008 models? Last day shopping day in Japan we jump from track to track to go back for it and man I'm so glad it was still there when I came back

Thanks Sir, love the vintage feel of it. Case reminds me of a vintage seamaster?

I had time to resize it earlier. It also came with a tool for the bracelet pin.

My "wired XYZ" that I bought in 2005 during the Tokyo motor show, I loved it until the day the bracelet is broken. it is time to search for yahoo jap to return it from time to time.
