It says titanium on the dial... is the case polished? I like it but if the hands and makers were white metal or blue, I'd like it even more.

8F movement (actually do not think you can call it a movement for quartz, they call it a moduale or something) is a great one. High frequency 196khz quartz crystal not the standard 32 khz and accurate to +/- 20 sec a year.
But I opted for the seiko spirit because on the watch pictured, the top crown is not screwed down. When I saw it in the store if you bump it, it will adjust the hand. Very bad design if you ask me. They are only Japan only watches. And good prices. Retails for over $400USD but can be had for $350 or less with the current exchange rate. |
