What I call the 'F' watch, got this in a trade a long while back and never wore it.

Anybody know what this is? What company is the F symbol for? There is not any info on the back. I was told these were given away with a Lexus purchase some years ago, but can't even find that.......might as well wear it.

Wow Gary, is that neat or what?! Looked around at a lot of watch brands that begin with 'F', and none of them
had this symbol, or even style. So couldn't find an answer, but that makes it that much cooler I think. Evidently what
ever brand it is, or was, it is really rare. Think that makes it even more 'F'un ! ..So sticking with the 'F' watch sounds
perfect.

Bill, this Seiko Ananta of your's is one that you always end up finding out new things about it to enjoy. I'm taken in
by those lugs, and how thick they look. The way in which they seemlessly continue the bracelet, but then are able
to become one especially incredible looking case is outstanding. Really is such a unique looking Seiko sir.

The case of the Ananta comes in two parts, the top and bottom, both are screwed together and it came wth and alligator leather strap as good as the bracelet.

That is really something Bill. Didn't even know about this. Really impressive ! ..What a strap also !
Thanks so much for your insight into this one.
