Found one of this Seiko Quartz (15 jewels!) chronographs for $150 - told my folks about it, and it's now my early birthday present.

What do you think of it?

Thanks! I'm going to get a green or red suede strap for it to replace the bracelet - think it'll give it a more modern look.

Happy birthday!! Gold on suede is a beautiful combination and does indeed dress down a watch,

I just looked at your pics again and it looks like the bracelet is captive on this model- as in you can’t swap it out for a strap.
Regardless, rock that 80’s flair like you mean it!

Here's the back - I thought the same, but the bracelet just sits a bit deeper under the hooded lugs. Here's a pic of the back (you can see the spring bars)

Bingo! That’s what I was hoping to see- carry on with the strap hunt!
