The Alba Y823-5000 is a neat little digital watch I picked up at a flea market in Osaka Japan for about $10. Beside the usually quartz watch offerings, this one had a button that will read the current time to you in Japanese with a button push.

    That is a nice find! I love the old Alba/Seiko digitals.

      I didn’t know about Alba before but after doing some reading I’m really liking their vintage watch lines. I wish I had paid more attention to the buckets of “as-is” watches in the markets.
