Both Citizen and Seiko toyed with electronic watches --- here are two of Seiko's offerings!
The first three photographs shows the EL-370 from 1971. It is probably the most common of the Seiko
Electronic waches but, frankly, I find the styling of these two watches a little boring
compared to other electric / electronic watches of the period; in fact, Seiko's calibre 6138 and 6139
chrono automatics from a few years earlier are much more interesting!
The last two photographs show the much rarer Seiko ELNIX from 1973. This had a frequency of 4 Hz. and
features the 0702 calibre.
