Reply With QuoteThat power reserve looks lovely. Do they do one with a handy toenail clipper on the front too? The two plain dial ones look rather nice.

I'm the opposite. I would really like that watch if not for the power reserve. But then I guess I'm not the target market as I can't stand any on-dial power reserve. Really love the way the blue dials look though, very attractive.Originally Posted by Foxy100
For the sake of clarity I was being sarcastic about the power reserve. And the toenail clippers.
"A man of little significance"
Ah, gotcha ;) job hunting has turned my mind to mush, didn't know what you were on about regarding the toenail clippers.
Oh, so long as we now know.
I must be weird, I rather like the power reserve!!!

Damn, and here I was thinking the toenail clippers was a good idea.

I'd hate to be with you when you're on your own.
I've seen worse on a seiko. I prefer the PR model here.
Really like the dial on the date only versions, however the crown seems a tad too large. Maybe it’s just me.
Also someone commented that the minute hand is a bit too short, and now that I’ve seen it it can’t be unseen.
It is a shame they down graded the movement from the original cocktail time but the price is the same..
Love these non-standard dials, now just need a Presage version of the GS snowflake
I'd be perfectly happy with the movement they've fitted, but then putting them at the same price as the old ones is a bit cheeky to say the least.

I like the look of the white dial without the port reserve.

Actually like the power reserve on the blue dial!

A bit like this..

4R calibre behind a pretty dial and at these prices = all fur coat and no knickers.
I'm another fan of the power reserve! The blue dial looks fascinating and I'd love to see one in the metal : the renderings always make it hard to know if one will like/love the real thing. Sadly the movement change seems to be yet another step in the wrong direction w.r.t. value-for-money from Seiko.

Sounds rather enticing!
Very nice! Though this looks more list frosted glass rather than snow flakes.
I like your spell check.
Thinking about it, imagine if your watch had sub dials showing wine cellar, port, cigar and so on stock levels. Much more useful than a power reserve you can stick on the back of the watch instead.

Oh stupid phone! I do fancy a nice port myself, the colour would be nice on a dial for sure.

The bracelet looks nice with that squared link effect . I’ve seen that on Sarx or sbdC’s

Or a frozen lake
that could be very nice - interested to see real life pictures, and if it's presage, should be easy to pick up
That's a nicer and better quality one though, not a standard 'cheap' Presage. Retail £875 + VAT.
They release these press statements, but any idea when its actually coming out? and will it be available here?
Scottie
Absolutely stunning. Seiko continue to knock it out of the park at 1/5th the price of everyone else.

The white dialled presage with the interesting dial is currently available on a few Japanese retailers for around 130,000¥
Me too
Yep, here too: prefer the power reserve to the date window, looks wise. The movement selected is a real annoyance though, makes the package seem quite cynically over-priced. The blue one available from 17th November apparently.
These are currently for sale on iguana sell UK
I'd presume they'll be here in a few weeks, and the Presage is an export range rather than JDM only.
Only criticism is the hands are too short

Other than that it’s pretty spot on for the price

Really?
If you say so.
I found the power reserves on other presages I've had confusing and affecting the dial legibility, quite frequently requiring a double take so as not to confuse the hour hand. Particularly when they are in that same window of time in the afternoon where they are in close proximity.

Not these particular ones, not yet.
