1975 Seiko 5 Sports Speedtimer Flyback Chronograph (Ref. 7015-8000) Green "Fume" Dial

Depending on who you ask, the original Seiko 5 Speed-Timer, which came out in 1969 and featured the famed cal. 6139 movement, was the one of first automatic chronographs ever brought to market. That's quite a legacy to uphold. And while this model from 1973 doesn't feature that famed movement, it does feature the upgraded cal. 7015. Featuring a super cool flyback chronograph function, along with date and date complications, and retaining the automatic winding system, the cal 7015 is no slouch in comparison. Add to that, an incredibly unique, flying saucer-like case shape and a fume-green dial and you've got a real winner on your hands.
