Ray is quite right. I have a number of half-decent Seikos but this is the first watch that I've been properly impressed by the clarity of the glass. Just need to not scratch it now.
Love the watch so far, especially since I hadn't seen one before buying. There were a few Ocean Ones I liked, but the lack of the magnifier over the date on the Vintage Red led me to choose this one.
There is a guy at work that only comes in about once a fortnight ish so he hot desks. This week he sat behind me and I noticed his watch. He saw me looking at gave me a closer look. It's some Rolex (not diver) that he bought 20+ years ago. the glass has scratched to pieces, I should've taken a picture but its not faint scratches, a couple felt like a chip off the surface !
The other thing I noticed immediately was the sweeping on the secondhand wasn't very smooth. I don't remember which model of watch it was but that was the first thing that struck me, how almost Quartz like the sweeping was.
p.s. he was impressed with my OB1
this time I'll get a watchmaker to have a look at it, but I was wondering if the cheap blue boxes on eBay are any good? Has anyone here used one?
