Here's some info on the 8T23: http://www.gmtplusnine.com/2007/02/25/thoughts-on-seiko-kinetics-part-ii-the-8t23/ There is a Seolp watch that I've been meaning to do a quick post about that's an ANA relative. Keep your eyes peeled over the next week...I'll try to get it up. Here is an old writeup that included the 7T62 Speedmaster: http://www.gmtplusnine.com/2007/09/13/death-in-the-afternoon/ I suspect that the timekeeper does have a regular watch funtion but I'm not 100% sure. Thanks for reading! petew Hi Mark,

There were blue and black dialed watches styled like the one pictured in the auction as well as some GMT models with compass bezels as well. The GMT models came with blue black and I think green dials. One was a SSASS special edition. I don't know of any comprehensive writeups on those models, so unfortunately, I can't point you to a resource. Congratulations on winning yours and thanks for reading! petew Hi pietporsche,

I have come back to it 5 or 6 times since it first went up, the auction list is probably the most interesting single watch related thing I have found - it always leads to more questions than it answers (and adds more watches to the list I would love to find) : More background on the 8T23 or the Yura 7T? What was the ANA relation you mean to write about? Whats the Time Keeper about: stopwatch only or a conventional watch? I know you cant answer all that here, but thanks for the auctions posts please keep up the good work. Pete, I had been stalking the site for a weeks looking forward to this, it doesnt disappoint.
