Spotted a Seiko JDM
« on: January 28, 2010, 08:48:27 PM »
The watch is a Seiko Brightz spotted in a well known watch shop in KLCC last weekend. It was heavily discounted. Hint, this is the same shop that had the Seiko MM.

It was an odd looking piece sticking from a bunch of regular Seikos.






Case and bracelet is titanium. Very light. Played around with the crown and pusher. Couldn't figure out how to get it to work. Guessing it's around 38-40mm so it's quite small for most people. Has an exhibition caseback and the movement inside is really beautiful. Regret not taking a picture.

Interesting but does not really appeal to me. Not something you see everyday. Hope this piece goes to a good home. Maybe one of our MWF members will take a liking to it  ;)

The one you saw is black or white dial?
Should have taken a wrist shoot and show us haha....i always politely ask if i can take one for consideration at home hehe...

Anyways you can check out some video on youtube and find out how it works. But i think the one they reviewed there isnt this model.

Mind to PM me how much and wht kinda discounts they giving.

very rare piece... n i hate you, hush!!

the shape bit like PP jumbo imho, with a smaller case (38mm) n a circular rim instead of a curvy-square found in PP jumbo.
interesting auto GMT movt. 4s27... hack and manual wind possible, dual setting mode on the GMT setup. either you move the GMT hour hand and it synchronises with the normal hour hand or the other way round.

ar coated sapphire glass, full titanium case n bracelet (the color look like normal brushed metal), retrograde day indicator!! at a hefty rrp at close to rm10K!

some real life shots via my bb.
