I recently had one of my Seiko chronographs serviced. The day wheel got stuck and I had not brought this watch to the shop since I acquired it in December 2020. This didn't have a strap as I removed it and used the leather strap on another watch I planned to unload. Since I was already at the shop to get it last weekend, I purchased a generic stainless steel strap so I could wear it on the way home.

Unsigned clasp for the generic stainless steel strap. The day wheel is working well and is set to Kanji days. The photo shows the day to be Nichiyobi or Sunday.

For completeness, here is the back of the watch showing the serial number that indicates this to have been made in July 1971.

Wrist shot for the last day of October - I wore the watch for my Sunday morning walk. That gave my usual watch for our walks, a Seiko AGS Landmaster, a rest.
