'On Christmas Day 1982, I received a magnificent stainless steel Seiko A 638 5000 in brushed steel, which I have never tired of admiring. As is often the case, the combination of technology and design had given birth to a classic. For me, on the cusp on adolescence, it was a revelation.' Clement Mazarian
