Had extra free time this afternoon, so I took some quick pics of 2 watches for a review

The Seiko Golgo 13 Limited Series comprises of various models most of which are quartz, either digital or analogue. These are only available in Japan.

However I came across this 400 pc Limited Edition Golgo 13 Fieldmaster with a mechanical 6R15 calibre in Tokyo by pure chance and got it on the spur of the moment for under RM 4K, as it looked unique. Since early 2013, I've been into black cased casual watches.

The 6R15 calibre is a better performing calibre compared to the older 7S and the current 4R series. The 6R is used in some Presage models and in the higher Ananta range.
I've calibrated this watch to within +4 secs/day depending on actual conditions so it is capable of very creditable performance, if carefully regulated.

An unusual combination of a Fieldmaster watch in a tuna can.The Seiko propriety black coating is very well executed
I love the recent tuna-cased watches esp in black.




The S signed crown signifies the Superior range


Cute tuna can case design

Personal taste and preferences evolve over years, hopefully not 1 full circle otherwise it means we haven't learnt a single thing.
