    Totally agree with your sentiments regarding the circular date window. I rarely notice it on my SPB333 and I prefer the greater dial symmetry.

    Good ole Seiko. Adding another 100m of water resistance will bate many of us into the "must have" camp. The 3 days text will become collectable? Can't see that staying

    I think the updates for the Seiko are great, I had the SPB143 for years and I think I will get the new blue one

    I might be in a minority, but I think details like date windows, rivets on bracelets, snowflake hands etc. are really prominent when looking at macros - but when you actually wear the watch, it becomes a part of the package.

    The biggest change for me on the new Seiko MAS range is the ever so slightly smaller numerals on the bezel, which allows the full scale to be put on there. This sounds ludicrous but I think it completely changes the way the watch looks for the better. I thought the numerals dominated the dial slightly before.

    5:07 Great video. I like “almost 3 days.” That’s a watch I would buy. But you know what’s better? “3 Days mas o menos “. Tell me it wouldn’t sell out…

    Yeah, Seiko is (trying to) improving evrerything... except the accuracy ! By the time you empty the power reserve, the time is off by about a minute. 🙄 So what's the point ?! 🤨 I have the small lum at 3 version, and I'm selling it.

    I really hope the updated Seikos are lighter than their predecessors. I have an SPB143 and it’s surprisingly heavy. Mostly due to the bracelet. It’ll just help the watch wear better in general.

    Stop with the 3days bashing , get over it, it’s here to stay, it’s not worst than the 24 jewels text. 72 hours is more power reserve than the Sub and the BB58

    I more grateful for my spb143. The round (much prefer square) 4:30 date is a deal breaker and I don’t like the 3 days. I also prefer the sunray grey dial and brushed bezel than a matte black dial that’s been taken out of the willard spb317 and matte black bezel.

    Studio Underdog and pizza watches? Call me conservative, but we are all-in on trinkets here. And to the “it’s a bit of fun, don’t take it so seriously” people, tell that to yourself when you find it in the bottom of a drawer in five years’ time, between the emigrated belly button fluff and an old ballpoint, and ask yourself why your brain malfunctioned. 😊
