Originally posted by jamestkirkIn most of the world, this watch is known for the movie Apocalypse Now, with an actor playing Captain Willard, so most people refer to it as the Seiko Apocalypse / Willard. In Japan, there is a whole other person, it is famous for, as that is a Japanese explorer named Naomi Uemura. There is a whole story on a French watchforum, which needs to be translated for those not fluent in that language (use Chrome browser to open it), so you can see, that the Japanese never made it public outside Japan, for which this watch really is famous for!
