For all the technology that Seiko has in it's repertoire, this is the best they could do?  Would an atomic chip have been asking too much?  Not the easiest watch to reset when you have to move it to the next month when the current month does not have 31 days in it.  The vendor was great, and got the product here quickly. I needed a watch, I got a watch, it does what it's suppose to do.  As Dom DeLuise said in "History of the World, part I", "Nice... nice... not thrilling but nice."
