Tw3 391 Posted November 12, 2021 Clean looking watch, it’s a thumbs up from me. Might be tempted to get one if one pops up second hand. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
deju 2,071 Posted November 12, 2021 I like it! I’d prefer no date window…. I don’t know if they all do this to avoid copyright issues Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Aramis2288 6,346 Posted November 12, 2021 Thumbs up! What's the movement though? Automatic or mecha-quartz? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Abe Fromen 1,650 Posted November 12, 2021 Yeah what kind of movement is it that there's no battery but can store power for six months? If no battery, that's a helluva long main spring. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ferax 801 Posted November 12, 2021 It looks great, but I watched some reviews on YouTube and the dw is sunken, haha it's a great alternative to the daytona but the dw is killing me... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I had one and it was really solid. Very good value for the money, and a fraction of what the Seiko costs. Probably the name and the light charged movement that makes the difference in price. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
