Just now saw where Seiko came out with the SPB151 which is a reincarnation of the "Willard" 6105. If you're not familiar, "Captain Willard" is Martin Sheen's character in the movie Apocalypse Now and he wore a Seiko 6105 in the movie. Seiko addict that I am, I've always lusted for one, but the $4K and above price tag on the original 70's issue watches kept them out of my grasp. Even the first reincarnation, the SLA033 being a limited edition was unattainable. Now, with the mass-produced SPB151, I just might be able to finally get one!!
