    ‘Historically important’ might be in the eye of the beholder.

    But it was a real contender for dominance of the quartz watch market in the early 1980s. I tried to buy one at the time but couldn’t find a UK retailer.

    hmmm well seiko was first with astrons then you had hamiltons and then pulsars then citizens and also texas instruments then of course casio they was the big players then you had a load of swiss player and Japanese but they was common low quality fair you see a lot in joblots so dominance of quartz market hmm that to me would be casio and as I say seiko..suppose some pulsar citizens and timex was the players for £20 I would think ..

    mean of course you had the likes of omega ,hamilton etc etc but be a wow to get one of those for a score

    so what am I missing ...

    say a pulsar spoon ?
