Alba Y789-6180 Vintage LCD Alarm-Chronograph Digital Watch, Seiko-Made, Japan You are looking at a genuine vintage Alba Y789-6180 Alarm-Chronograph, a highly collectible LCD digital watch produced by Seiko's Alba division during Japan's golden era of digital watchmaking in the late 1970s to early 1980s. Alba was Seiko's domestic Japanese sub-brand, and pieces like this one — featuring the same movement and build quality as their parent Seiko counterparts — are increasingly sought after by serious vintage digital collectors worldwide. The watch is confirmed running and keeping time, as clearly shown in the photos. Case & Display The case is a classic squared cushion shape in brushed stainless steel, measuring 36.3mm wide as confirmed by the digital caliper photo. The display is fully functional, showing time with seconds, day of week, and date. Function labels across the top of the dial read Light, Select, and Start-Stop, with Mode, Set, Lap, and Reset along the lower edge. The bold "Alarm-Chronograph" designation appears in a separate panel at the very bottom of the dial face. Two side pushers on each flank control all chronograph and alarm operations. Bracelet & Clasp The watch is fitted on its original stainless steel integrated bracelet, stamped AA80B-L on both the top and bottom bracelet sections, confirming it as the correct period-correct matching bracelet. The folding deployant clasp is intact, functional, and opens and closes securely as shown in the photos. Case Back The case back is engraved with the movement reference Y789-6180, serial number 2D0893, "Water Resist," and "Stainless Steel," all clearly legible in the photos. The smooth snap-back case back shows no damage or tool marks. Condition This watch presents in very good vintage condition for a piece of approximately 40 or more years of age. The display is crisp, bright, and fully readable with no dead segments or fading observed. The stainless steel case shows light surface scratches and age-appropriate patina on the case sides and lugs, all clearly visible in the photos. The bracelet links are tight and show normal wear. The crystal shows some light surface marks but remains fully transparent and does not detract from legibility. Overall, this is a solid, honest example of a hard-to-find Alba alarm-chronograph in working order.

I have made every effort possible to describe the item in this listing accurately. All the items I sell are authentic and in working order unless otherwise noted as parts. By bidding on this item, you completely accept these terms. I pack items I sell extremely well. I make no statement whatsoever about support for watch function after the item has left my warehouse. In addition, every watch that I list on eBay has been photographed extensively and been videoed. This means that once the watch leaves my warehouse, it is in the same identical shape as described in the listing. I will not take back a watch and return especially one that has been tampered with previously nor falsely declaring that a watch is not working, when the proof says otherwise. Do not leave negative feedback as a means of leverage over me. I will willingly work with every buyer to assist with issues that arise, or if by chance a 30- or 40-year old vintage watch decided to be unstable. If you choose to leave negative feedback as a means of gaining leverage over me to mischaracterize the accuracy of the listing, you will face overwhelming proof on my side that the item listed was in the shape as described in the description and I WILL CONTACT eBay WITH OVERWHELMING PROOF THAT THE ITEM WAS ACCURATELY DESCRIBED AT THE TIME OF THE LISTING.
