Almost 10 years back, when I was still in high school, I would wear my grandfather's Seiko watch during my exams. He would let me wear it for months at at a time and to me, at the age of 15, 16, 17, it was the nicest watch I had ever seen.
My grandfather was a professor and one of his students had gifted him the Seiko watch many years after he stopped teaching. A few years back, my grandfather passed away in a car accident and I always wanted his watch as a memory token of him. Unfortunately, my uncle took the watch as a keepsake not knowing how much it meant to me. Obviously I didn't want to ask for it and he lives in England.
Many years later, I managed to find one just like and as of last week, I purchased a brand new one.
I can't wait till it arrives!
