How about an oldie but goodie?

The 1976 calibre 1611 Chrono-Quartz Albatros which was the world’s first digital/analog chronograph. It has a analog display on the right and a dual LCD chronograph display on the left and was modeled on the scoreboard at the 1976 Montreal Olympic Games. The back has both the Seamaster and the Olympic logos.

I went to those Olympic games in Montreal and when I returned to NYC I fell in love with the watch and immediately purchased it. As you can see it has has been worn, has some scratches on the case and the band but it is still running strong. It needs 2 batteries which usually last a little over a year before needing replacement.
