Seiko Chronograph SNN231

Have been checking out Seiko's for awhile now after seeing a number of nice ones here & fellow forum member Thrichar putting me onto them

 

Found this one while trawling fleabay that took my fancy

Really like the look & reviews I've read online seem to be good. I know it's just a Quartz but I'm ok with that

 

My question to the Seiko experts is what do I look for to make sure it's a gen? From the few pics in the listing does this look legit?

 

Having been recently burnt on my last fleabay Tissot watch purchase I just want to make sure

 

The fact the watch is very cheap at AUD$125 & it comes from Singapore has me a bit wary

 

Any advise appreciated

 

Thanks

Plenty of legit online Seiko dealers instead of resorting to fleabay.

 

Creationwatches out of Singapore are even listed in the forum dealer list.

Checked them and they don't gave it. Skywatches again in Singapore do, they're legit, been used by members here and have it in stock at less than the one on fleabag.

 

Read and search newbie read and search:lol:

No bother, as Gazz posted above members here have used them so they're nice and safe unlike fleabay

My new Seiko turned up today

 

Really happy with the watch. Looks much better in person than the pics I think

 

Strap looks nice but a bit stiff. Need to wear it in. Might look nice on a Brady sailcloth strap?

Thanks all for the help & advice on where to buy. Sky watches were good. Price was great. Communication was just ok but it arrived

 

Cheers
