Haha to be honest, the pokey thing was a real surprise to see Seiko add it to the package.🤣 This one has been around for about a year from what I can find out, but there doesn't seem to be many videos on it, one of their better chronographs imo. Cheers mate.👍

I’m with you bro, this watch definitely deserves at least a milled clasp if not both (solid end links). Great looking watch from a great bloke and a great review 👍👍

Those Zulu straps really make those watches pop. I agree though, I always try to get on the bracelet since it will spend most of its life on it. Nice to see a different looking offering from Seiko. Definitely a little something different. Nice job as always mate.

I agree the nylon straps did look great, my issue though was mainly the they're the same price as the bracelet version, not necessarily Seiko's fault just laziness on the part of the AD's Thanks for the support as always mate.👍

I wonder if sieko put these bracelets on their domestic market watches or just export ones.?nice watch though .and you get one of the wiggles as well.a lot happening on the dial too .did it need a date window ?. THANKS Adrian.

Good question! I thought that their domestic market usually better specs than the export models, but yeah a very busy dial & I don't really think it needed a date I would normally say that would've given a cleaner look but there's already a lot to take in if anything I would say that the date almost gets lost.

Hello, I recently bought this watch. However, on the clip of the watch, there seem to be marks around the hole where the thin rod goes in (The hole underneath the spring mechanism where the thin rod goes in, which helps us attach the watch to our wrist.) as if I had stuck tape on it and left sticky residue. Is it the same with your watch, or is there an issue with the one I received?

@mustafaturkalpuslu2310 no I didn't have anything like with this one l, and not being able to see what marks you have on your clasp I can't really comment. If you've had the watch from new the bracelet would have had either a piece of usually blue semi sticky tape inside the clasp mechanism which you will have had to remove or a thin strip card/paper, either of those can be a pain to remove and can leave residue or marks, easily polished out but you would need to disassemble the catch to get right underneath to where the marks are. If it's not seen when the bracelet is secured on your wrist and as long as the clasp functions correctly, it's probably best to just leave it alone but if it bothers you take it back to the AD that you purchesed it from and see if they will replace the clasp for you.

Surprising about the lume, mine has lume on all the indices Bracelet on this is slightly better than the one on mine but yeah solid end links at a min for that price I find the hollow ones to be a real pain to put back on at least on my model I do like this one!

Well, I own this same watch for a month or so. It is indeed absoultely stunning, especially in daylight with the sun illuminating the green dial! It has hollow end links, but overall it sits so well with the bracelets on the wrist. I tried it with NATO straps quite a while, but I've put back the original bracelet it came with. I have to say, it is cluttered, as it is not a dive watch, I miss the overall lume. As of late I've turned minimalist in my watch preference. It is 3+ seconds/month accurate, and indeed it pretty much catches the eye. When I read the time, which I frequently do, I always have to look at it a second time... 😅 Great presentation, thank you!
@somewhereintimewatchreviews

It does have a very busy dial, that's for sure! Like you, I wish the lume was better, I had actually expected better, as Seiko are known for good lume, but other than that, it is a very cool watch, and as Seiko have recently discontinued these I guess it could become quite sought after and collectable. Thanks for watching.👍

As with any Seiko watch. Some are made in Japan, and some are made in Korea. The way to tell is on the serial number if it ends with "J1," it's made in Japan. If the serial number ends in "K1," it's made in Korea.

@04cosmicfighter I'm not sure that the Indian one is genuine! Could be a refurbished one, but as far as I'm aware, Seiko only produces new watches in either Japan or Korea. As for which is superior, Seiko have their own quality control system, and wherever they're made, they have to go through all the same checks, etc. Collectors will always say that the Japan made watches are better, but I personally don't particularly have a preference unless I was going to be spending over $1000 on one. Then, I would want a Japan made one
