One of the most iconic photographs of Steve Jobs shows him sitting on the floor in this Woodside, California home while holding the first Macintosh in his lap. On his wrist in that image is a very simplistic Seiko watch that has drawn a fair amount of attention, especially since the release of the Apple Watch.

Seiko to Re-release the Iconic Watch  Worn by Steve Jobs

The watch worn by Jobs, part of the Seiko Chariot series, is very simplistic in terms of design and that trend continues with the version that will be re-released. Seiko will be offering the watch in 33mm and 37.5mm sizes, with options for black and white dials. The band will be a simple black calf leather strap.


Notably, the very watch worn by Jobs in that image was auctioned off last year for $42,500.


The image was taken in 1984 by photographer Norman Seeff and is one of the most well-known pictures of Jobs. Jobs is seen sitting criss-cross on the floor with the Macintosh in his lap and the Seiko watch peeking out from underneath his sleeve.
