Thread: New Seiko Watch dial just looks wrong...

  1. #1

    New Seiko Watch dial just looks wrong...

    Is it me or does this Limited Edition Seiko SLA031J1's dial look like its been done in crayon's by a six year old??? For $4298 it should be looking a little sharper than that...

    You can't judge the quality of a watch on a bad image. The design is awful but the quality of the print is fine:



    The problem I have with Seiko is that I can't tell if it's a £150 model, or £4000 model.

    The image I had came off a watch sales website, its looks shocking, I totally agree with your comments about seiko prices tbh...

    I quite like it, in fact I think it looks pretty darn cool.

    Pretty sure there was a post about this and a couple of other new models a few weeks back.

    I like the green version but wouldn’t pay the asking price...nowadays the price of Seiko has gotten crazier every time they release something new

    This is a 40th anniversary Gundam themed model. There are three LE models.

    I would have to say that it hasn't photographed well.

    I had a look at both this and the green version.

    They book look better in the flesh.

    As mentioned, both limited edition Gundam models.

    The third is a spring drive GMT. (Which is far nicer, but costs twice what these do).

    The only real issue I'd have with them though is the pricing. The Spring drive version was cheaper than them. (Though not a limited edition).
