the only 2 non complication no-date watches I have, a simpler watch would be a 2 hand watch....my favourite simple watch however is the GS which is used as a dinner watch


Grand Seiko 130th Anniversary hand-wind 72 hr PR, Limited Edition Cal 9S64 (300 pcs outside Japan)



Archimede Pilot Original Limited Edition (POLE) with Junghans vintage hand-wind movement Cal J 87 (90 pcs production only)

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

Seiko 5 seems to have a huge fan base. Unfortunately I bought one for my sibling and after few months, the hour marker fell off and movement kapoot. So, no more Seiko 5 for me. Repaired through AD and still didn't work. Thx for the pic.

This is a very classic and clean looking GS. Very nice! Love it.  :thumbsup: imagine it came with an enamel dial, squeaky white enamel dial.

This is my go anywhere watch  which does keep on ticking .The blue is quite unlike any other shade of blue I have come across.Biggest bang for buck watch if I may add.

Nice one Foowy. Master ultra thin. Is the small crown difficult to wind? Nice looking.

Thanks Kenny


Surprisingly for such a small crown it winds very smoothly and easily.....thus adding the pleasure of wearing it. Unlike my other watches with slightly bigger crowns and a bit harder to grasp them to wind

SEIKO SUMO SBDC003, what a great pleasure of it, with 6R15 caliber and known well as the scuba diver has made the most fav watch of Seiko. beside it the blue one which is very rare in the market.
