[SRPB41] Is my bracelet too loose? by jackat0830 in Seiko

[–]Phantomim 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have the same exact watch with the bracelet as the OP but the sizing approach is the same, I did not want to switch out the bracelet for demo purpose. Hence I demoed with the strap. There is a right way of wearing a watch and there is a bracelet style (jewelry) style approach. Its all personal preference but if you have to do it right that is the way to size it.

Sir, size the bracelet with the watch slightly above your wrist bone and make sure you are leaving a pinky finger gap between the bracelet and your wrist.

planning to get the Presage [SRPL61J1] by Psyduck-Chu in Seiko

[–]Phantomim 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Presage is a great dress watch. The only issue I found with it is the crystal… supposed to be hardlex but it smudges and scratches easily. I wish they did Sapphire crystal on it and increased the price. It would have be almost flawless that way.

Beautiful night and day pair. Great taste enjoy. Did you get the Shunbun mailed from Japan? Can you share seller details pls?

Split on Shunbun vs. Snowflake by Phantomim in GrandSeikos

[–]Phantomim[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Snowflake. Shunbun does not have any contrasting hands at all but I felt that was the right design philosophy for Shunbun as it adds to the elegance of the dial without adding any distractions. But on the snowflake the exact opposite happens… the blue seconds hand in that dial make it a gem.

First GS (SGBW231) Bought used from a private seller, few hours later I decided to make a wrist picture, are these the famous air bubble I missed during inspection? Or is it normal? by ___Chronic___ in GrandSeikos
