I'm not much of a watch wearer other than wearing one when I dress up, as I'm usually a shorts and polo kinda guy. After 6 years this watch is still like new. It's the Seiko quality I remember growing up since my dad had a Seiko he purchased in Tokyo back in the 60s. This watch reminds me alot of that watch and seems to be nothing more than an upgraded version. I have friends who have Citizen watches and I think this one blows those away.
