Seiko has their own Lume brand, Lumibrite, they don't use Super-Luminova and that's pretty much standard Seiko, their lume is insanely strong, regardless of price point. They have some Walter White cook cookin that Lume up.

I think Seiko is just being humble and if your Seiko ever reach +45/-35 s/d as it is mentioned on their manual book, then it is time for service. I have like more than 10 Seiko(s), none of them was that inaccurate *touchwood*. Even the vintage one.

+45/-35 is really bad. That basically means that you'll have to readjust the time on the watch every 2-3 days.

Japanese days and dates are almost a tradition by now. I believe it's because they sold mostly for the average middle-class worker of the 70s and 80s that wasn't a collector, not only in Japan but worldwide. But i agree that many dials would benefit if they didn't had day-date functions, and not only from Seiko.

If you get confused, lost, or scared in restaurants, maybe try getting hungry and deciding what you want to eat... BEFORE going in? Of course everything is more difficult for a heavily dyslexic person, but I believe the method I am suggesting will make it easier for you. Similarly, try doing the same thing with Seiko (and watches in general). First decide what you are looking for, then begin looking for it.

What bothered me of the previous generation was the bezel construction of coated aluminum and painted markers and numerals. The mear fact they look engraved now, even though it's not ceramic, removes that cheap look and you get that "punch up" in terms of quality. The King and Save the Ocean versions were so much prettier and still available from the previous versions. At least now, the standard model looks much better and smaller (not too small) and is a viable option unless you want that ceramic and sapphire treatment.
