Ah, memories. About 2 weeks after I was assigned to the 2nd Infantry Division in Korea in the early 70's, I was approached by a street vendor who was selling "Seiko" watches. I needed a new watch so I took a good look at his watches. Seiko was spelled wrong (Seeko). When I pointed it out, he told me they were "best quality Korean Seiko watches". I passed on the watch but I did buy a pack of gum.
