"Wristwatches of the 70s are somehow appealing by the design. The 70s marked the golden years of global watch making and the surviving classics have always been the most sought-after collection by avid vintage collectors. Comparing with the smaller sizes of the 60s, the watches of the 70s are bigger, sporty, yet retro by the look. The famous classics of 70s range from simple dress until instrument type of wristwatches. That is why many watchmakers from Switzerland and Japan include the 70s design in their modern classic line.
