The shadow of the giant
Why the "Mini Apocalypse Now" might be one the most underrated diver Seiko ever made.
In the pantheon of vintage Seiko, the Ref. 6105 is the undisputed king. It was strapped to the wrist of Captain Willard in Apocalypse Now, traveled through the jungles of Vietnam, and cemented itself as an icon of 20th-century cinema and horology.
But icons cast long shadows. And hiding in the shadow of the "Willard" is a watch that, pound for pound, might actually be the better machine.
Meet the Seiko 2205-0760 Professional.
