I Usually Get Bored of Digital Watches… Not This One

In this video, I take a closer look at the Seiko Rotocall — a modern reissue of one of the most unique digital watches ever made. Originally released in 1982 and worn by astronauts, this watch completely rethinks how you interact with a digital watch. Instead of confusing menus and endless button presses, the Rotocall uses a rotating bezel to control its functions — time, chronograph, alarm, GMT, countdown, and more. It’s simple, tactile, and honestly… kind of addictive to use. As someone who’s owned multiple Casios and G-Shocks, I didn’t expect this watch to stand out — but it completely changed how I think about digital watches. That said… it’s not perfect. At around £500, there are some compromises that are hard to ignore. So is this actually the best digital watch you can buy right now? Watch till the end for my honest take. Let me know in the comments — would you pick this over a Casio or G-Shock? 00:00 Intro 00:52 The Seiko Robocall 02:40 The Rotating Bezel 04:32 Specs 05:33 Cons
