Seiko's own E6B-style Pilot chronograph. An alarm and chronograph ... or a dual time zone on a traditional mini-dial ... hardlex crystal ... 5-beat chrono second hand which looks like a traditional ticking mechanical second hand ... the nicely polished case on the Seiko's sides. Lots of aftermarket Synthetic Saphire crystals available for the Flighty ... plus a cult following, particularly for a Flighty with a French parachute elastic strap in olive green with a thin yellow center stripe. The dial just says "I'm PACKED with precision stuff!". Mine's averaging just over one second slow per month ... keeping up with my Bulova 262s! I didn't expect that from a standard 32KHZ crystal, man; that was a real surprise! And I have absolutely no problem with changing a battery in a quartz movement once every three years. Walk in the park and the battery runs $2.69. Get the Flighty ... trust Seiko!

After looking at some comparison videos about the Nighthawk and the Flightmaster I like the Flightmaster more. So I wanted to get one but it was hard to find and owners were selling for a lot more. A few months back while I was in Costco I came across the blue Nighthawk and right away liked the looks of, so I decided to buy it thinking I wasn’t going to be able to buy a Flightmaster because of the price. Then a few weeks ago I got a notification from Massdrop that the Flightmaster was available so I bought it. Just recently I received it and was so excited to open it, but I was surprised about the quality of the watch. It looks smaller than the size also. Don’t get me wrong its still a nice watch but compared to my Nighthawk, the Flightmaster was a bit disappointing.

JustBlueFish, go into your bathroom with a tripod, turn the lights off and do an extended exposure, probably 1/4 -2 second exposure would be plenty. Play around with exposure times and ISO settings until you get what you want. Most Samsung phones have the ability to do this kind of photography in the advanced camera settings. If this is too much for you, you could also stack frames from a video into a single picture that has the same effect as a longer exposure. Either way you need the camera to be perfectly still during the shot to get a sharp looking picture.

But I definitely prefer the finishing and angular style of the Citizen's case. I'd also have to think that the exposed markings on the Seiko's external bezel would be prone to wear over time, while the markings are all protected under the mineral crystal on the Citizen.

Sorry, I'm not qualified to comment on the lume as it's not something I use or pay attention to. I don't know what constitutes "good lume".

If you put this seiko in rotation with 5 or 6 other watches after 5 or 6 years do ya think all the complications are still working? I’m gonna get one of these two beautiful watches and I’m leaning towards the seiko but this question is a deciding factor??

I would expect either of them to work for 5 years. That said anything can fail. Cars, iPhones, watches, there’s no guarantee.

It was rumored that they were discontinued a while back, but I still see them for sale at retailers online from time to time, so I don't really know for sure.

Seiko case and bracelet look a bit “cheap”. Citizen looks like a better quality, more expensive watch. Citizen, with those hands, also looks easier to read the actual time. I would say for the frequent flyer, go Citizen, if you want a chronograph, go Seiko. It seems the Seiko “Flighty” has become a bit of a classic, so would probably hold a better resale value (especially if you can get hold of the rarer, sna413 or 414).

How do you know when it is made in China or Japan? I am sure it is written down so somewhere with the purchase, but is there a general guideline, or is it based on certain models/price points?

IMO the flightmaster is such a better watch that it isn't even a comparison. The Citizen looks like a piece of junk.

The majority of Seikos that are made for export I not typically made in Japan. The movement may be, but it's unlikely that the watch is, since it's not a JDM model. That said, I can't say I know one way or the other for certain.

Yeah the Seiko does have that sort of look with all the chrome polished surfaces.
