thats a very interesting date window.
looks like it was punched through rather than cut nicely.

That was also the first thing I noticed too.
Was also going to ask for a close up of the date window as to why the cut out is smaller than the square window.
Intentional? Seiko's other models dun look like this, not even the lowest Seiko 5s

The watch really looks classy, and simple.. Very different from the seiko 5 range. Congrats.. It's a beauty.

If they produce a version without date. I'll pound hard on it.  8)

Nice balance dial is so hard to find nowadays.

Totally agree. Dial is gorgeous with the red 12 hr marker. Without d date window would be awesome...

The other 500pc LE is SARW005. Doesn't have date window at 3 o'clock. But on closer look the date is a sub dial at 6 o'clock. Interesting. And superb value given the enamel dial. Think all may have sold out!

Thanks for the info. Too bad this other version looks to be more busy.
