Great looking watch,just slightly too small for me

I love the look of this piece, which Miyota movement you have there? I mean I know that it's 8215 but according Caliber Corner those movements were produced around 2018/19 with an upgrade of the hacking second hand. Does your second hand hacks? Also I read about the hesitating second hand due to the indirect-drive system for running the central seconds in this movement. Does it happens often on your watch?

Hi. Unfortunately no hacking seconds hand. Ive had no issues with the watch. The only gripe I have is the slight misalignment of the markers on the bezel with the hour markers. I also wish the crown was a bit larger. But I enjoy wearing it.

It's a good looking watch anyway, this misalignment is well know with Seiko as well. Many people don't mind it, neither I would. More concerned I would be with the missing second hand hacking but I could live with that
