      @Chris:

      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.

      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.

                      I've never liked square/rectangular watches, but the Reverso is the exception to that rule.  Beautiful, classic watch.

                                Giles, very interesting watch. Looks smaller on you than I expected. Really unique and detailed looking face. How's it lume? (in a few days, obviously)

                                  Perhaps a better angle for size reference….

                                    the watch isn't too shabby imo…nice and clean looking it is.
