So far so good. As mentioned above, the strap is better than expected with a contour pattern texture to the underside, logo’ed tip, decent suppleness and signed buckle. It’s quite long so would fit over a wet suit if ever worn for actual diving.
The bezel insert is really nice, a sort of ceramicy satin finish, the edge is very easy to grip and the bezel action is very “clicky” in a good way. No misaligned bezels from the Orient dept of Seiko Epson at least!
Crown feels precise, no looseness to it and again, nicely signed.
The dial looks “flat” for want of a better word which gives it a modern, crisp look – a bit like when Apple went to flat icons on ios. The lines above the day/date add a certain something as well.
It’s 44mm so not a small watch but I’m not a fan of the fashion for smaller watches so tend not to go much below 42mm anyway.
All told, I’m pretty pleased with it!
