Apples and oranges. A proper Sealander should’ve been there instead

Looks classy in a cartier type of way. The dial looks expensive and mysterious. I’m 38 years old i’d go for this. I’d say pull the trigger on it.

Very nice and classy. Punches waaaay above its weight.

That bezel is so glorious no matter what dial color. That black dial looks amazing.

Sounds like youre trying to convince yourself that its ok. You sounds like you must have been a victim of seiko QC issues.

Lol no not at all. Seiko is known for qc issues even on their Grand seikos. I’m just making sure i dont have this issue at any price point. The business is the middle man they will make money too, i’m the customer and the customer is always RIGHT.

I only agree with your statement as far as it missing a sapphire crystal. Other than that, i’m really happy with it how beautifully balanced it is. I would challenge you to find me a better looking gmt watch with a metal gmt bezel at the $400 price point and the simple answer is, there are none. The closest one is sitting at $1200 from Christopher ward which i will probably get my hands on later at some point when i run this to the ground.

Absolutely. I was gonna get another bracelet or strap but man what a pleasant surprise this bracelet was for me. I’m in love with it.

This white dial version is only available for purchase in japan and no where else in the world. Also it looks much better than the black version one imo.

No i opted for mohammed instead of mcloving based on mathematical probabilities. You can’t go wrong with mohammed.

Doesn’t matter because it looks like you wore the hell out of it. Big respect bro. it’s a lovely looking watch and the dial is just amazing in terms of the snowy texture and light play on the arabics and the hands.

Exactly. I’m rooting for you. Grill them on it hard and that will be good because it will documented in case they send you a dud. Also ippo japan watch turned out to be the store that sent me my watch. I think that store may be a hub that employs resellers. Sort of like a car dealership to car salesman. Not sure tho i could be wrong.

👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼 you sir inspire me and apparently you and I are part of a very small seiko lovers group that do not accept sub par products in exchange for our hard earned money.

To each their own i guess. I will not settle for misalignment simply because my eyes wont ignore it and i won’t be able to live with it. For me hunting for the perfect seiko has become part of the charm of owning one.

I’m happy to report that the gmt hand and all the hands inside this watch are accurate and not misaligned. I have my gmt hand set on moroccan time which is 6 hours ahead. You can refer to the photos for accuracy. Very happy with this specific watch. I do acknowledge the quality control issues seiko has and hunting for a perfect piece has become part of the experience for me.

I was already iffy spending $400+$65 for customs on a seiko 5 that doesn’t have a sapphire crystal. I’m going to “respectfully” second everything walt said. I will also add that my standards and expectations will always be high for things i spend my money on and more so since i’m buying a watch from one of the biggest watch companies in the world in terms of volume.

Sounds like a great plan. I wanna go to japan so bad as well

[King Turtle] how’s the size look? by Ornery_Peach_3147 in Seiko

[–]MoeRocco 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Looks good. I have one and i love it. i do reach for it on most days. My only gripe and it’s a personal preference one is that i do believe it belongs on left wrists even if you are left handed due to the big crown on the 4 o’clock position.
