Anyone who is interested in vintage lcd watches will have heard of this watch but there seem to be many incarnations of it.
I purchased one of these watches when they were first issued over 25 years ago and Im positive it was an A202 model but having trawled around the internet the only vesions I can find any information about are :
AA85
AA86
A201
My original got stolen and I managed to pick up another Mod103 (cant remember which model it was but the face was very similar to the A202(?) that got stolen) from a secondhand shop but it had an octagonal case instead of the original round one that got stolen. I subsequently lost this replacement and have been searching for another one ever since.
There have been offers on ebay, but some of the prices are just stupid due to 'collectors' - I want one because I love the watch and want to wear/use it. I have managed to finally get hold of an A201 model for the sum of £35 from a seller on ebay, but it appears there may be some malfunction with it - hopefully not. This is the one that resembles the original watch that I purchased.
Does anyone have any real information on these watches. I mean which came first? The AA85, AA86 or the A201/202?
These watches are infamous for their use in the movies:
Blue Thunder
48 Hours
Back To The Future
Anyone who has one to sell for a REASONABLE price, please PM or email me.
