Watches - another OCD problem

Great choice Ben, IMO way beyond the datejust

Apparently it's super light as well, which is a plus in my book…. I think that I might be able to check it out near me so I'll definitely stop by if I can

Mineral crystal's harder than hardlex right, or not?.. I like the slightly bigger and heavier black'un a bit more I think…

The orange one.

If I feel bold enough I just might

Orange

Orange.

Hardlex is Seiko's proprietary version of mineral crystal.  It's supposedly a bit harder, but I don't have any personal experience with it.

Orange gets my vote

IME Hardlex is a (little) bit more resilient than generic mineral.

Orange it is. Cheers lads.

It'll go great with me avatar…

And ordered… My brother's paying me 100 € for the Weil as well, so this is a cheap purchase

Post pics when you got them.

I like the look of the orange so much I ordered this today.

Might consider getting a maratac strap or leather strap later on.

Thanks Chris. This was helpful. I'm used to sapphire so I hope I don't crack this fucker within a week…

I think I've seen this one mentioned in here before but fairly cheap. I like a lot though

I wore my Riki auto yesterday. Simple, accurate, and keeps my attention as well as any of my watches. And btw, thanks a lot Ben now I think I'm going to sell my PAM 380 to get that Grand Seiko….

Well, even if you do, one of the nice things about Seiko is that parts are generally dirt cheap, and virtually any watch seller/repair shop can swap out a crystal in no time.

In fact, you could probably find someone who will put a sapphire crystal it for you.  They're not that expensive, really.
