When was the first time that we heard the word DIGITAL? Remember?
In 1973, if I may recall, a relative of mine who used to frequently travel to Singapore, returned from one of his trips with an unusual gizmo on his wrist. He had picked up a new watch, SIEKO, the world’s first digital wristwatch. Seiko changed time from being displayed as analog, to wristwatches displaying time in digital. The first wristwatch showed stunning 6-digits. Later on, complex displays included date and other details. Digitally displaying time was a breakthrough and it happened about 44 years ago.
