When we learned that the Seiko Watch Corporation (SWC) had plans for a revival of the 1979 Credor Locomotive wristwatch, we were surprised – we wager most of the watch world was too. The craze for Gerald Genta designs seems past its prime but the designer is part of a class of just one when it comes to creating watches that look and feel distinctive. The Credor Locomotive serves a special function for us this issue because it lets us talk about Credor; in years past, any major feature story about stealthy watches from brands known mainly to collectors would have included Grand Seiko. Those days are over now that Grand Seiko has taken such a prominent role in the mainstream arena but Credor still qualifies.
