Available on a certain auction site for US $475.00 (Approximately £312.51), available in grey metal or black.
Some minor differences, and the date's a nice addition.

Gizmodo's article:

Will it have an effect on the original's value, do you think?


EDIT: The 'Bishop' watch is also available, similar price.

I can't say I ever really noticed the watch in the film but I really love the looks of that watch. Tempted to get one when they come out.

Might affect the price of an original just a little, as some people will settle for a repro rather than shell out big bucks for an original.

I suspect you're right. It did cross my mind that it's possible to sell the original, buy the repro and pocket some cash. A less valuable watch might actually get some wear.

Probably won't hurt the value too much, the article says that Seiko made a few little changes to the externals so that it's easier to differentiate the re-issue from the original.

Apparently future is not Apple Watch !

I've always dug this watch. Such a cool Japanese cyberpunk 80's design. Fantastic stuff.

This kind of release usually raises the price of the original actually. By releasing this replica it shines a light on the existence of the very cool original instantly making the original a more desirable object in the eyes of collectors who may not have noticed it before.
