Any chance of a no-date linen dial?
xx deleted xx - sorry missed the boat there!
You can watches with the day on too, you know
Unusual serial number - "Number Zero of Seventy Five"??

To hide the fact that they bought it less than a week ago, possibly?
...
I should add that I have always found these higher grade (?mid grade) Seikos to be excellent value, and first class quality. I currently use a Seiko Spirit bracelet on my Tudor, because the quality...
I have bought from Seiya on more than one occasion - the service is excellent; if you have any questions beforehand he gets back to you quickly. Delivery to the UK was a matter of days, but there...
My 8 year old has an MWC (I know!) G10 which suits him well. He needed something in a rush, and this was all I could find in the house that would fit him, due to the Nato strap. It is easy to read,...
Seiko's much more classy in my opinion, but then I really dislike those windometers.
Had just seen that - is there any other make/model of watch that has shown this degree to appreciation - it's better than property as an investment!
I'm not sure the phoo os straight, but it certainly looks crooked to me.
Compare the 11 marker and the 1 marker: both markers aligns their right hand edges with the lug, whereas if they were...
It seems to be harder to get water resistance with a battery hatch - although I can't see why a hatch can't be properly sealed with O rings.

Fixed bars and 36mm. To be honest, I preferred the more oval shaped cases...
I moved my Tudor back an hour when the clocks changed, and it damaged it (possibly temporarily, as it seems to have settled down now). The hour hand started moving on at the same speed as the minute...
Of course, wrist watches are frowned upon in the clinical setting now anyway ('naked from the elbow down'), and so I find this watch very satisfactory.
...
I used to think these would be a good idea, but now I think they just complicate things. With a small amount of experience it is possible to estimate the pulse within satisfactory limits within five...
Country and Western song more likely.
Comes complete with dirt in the crown knurlings too - if the new owner washes it will that devalue it?

I had wondered what all the double entries were about, but now I see that I've got one myself...
Seems to be a database/software/gremlin glitch when 'replying to' or 'quoting'.
Not my cup of tea, but I can still appreciate an attractive design when I see one. Well done!

Nice looking watches - particularly the Eugene Meylan - until you see wrist shots, when you realise they're laughable.
Andrew
I thought that was the whole point of wrist watches?

You may have heard of Smiths??

Jura watches have them for £780.
Incidentally, they also seem to have problems with their model numbers.
