1971 Seiko Calculator Chronograph (Ref. 6138-7000)

$ 1,500

Indeed, this is quite possibly the nerdiest watch out there – and we mean that in the best way. It featured an actual, fully functional slide rule bezel designed for those who needed to do mathematical calculations on the fly. How cool is that? 

Aside from that incredibly unique design, this piece also features the cal. 6138 movement, which was the follow-up to the legendary 6139 and the brand's first dual register movement.

If you're looking for a watch none of your friends are going to have, this is a great contender.
