An actual bargain
I posted some time ago about this watch that I thought looked rather good but knew very little about.
Recently, a thoroughly decent member of the WC community @rossonero89 signposted me a link to the WatchGecko "nearly new" Web page where this watch (and many others) is available for a whole heap less than RRP.
At £549 it's not particularly cheap despite the very decent specs... but at the nearly new price of £199 it's an absolute steal.
I'll do a full review of it shortly but suffice to say at this stage that it came with all stickers and protection in place and, as far as I can see, is flawless.
I'm a happy Gasworks.
A self-confessed Seikophile who spends far too much time looking at bits of watches under a microscope. Probably the finest restorer of vintage Seikos in my house. https://www.ebay.co.uk/usr/gasworks
I bought one for my son, the case is spot on for the money, his is the g2 version with the revised bracelet, but the bracelet felt pretty cheap and jangly to me, we replaced it with a brown leather strap and it looks spot on
The price has always kept me from grabbing one of the Forzo models. They are $300 watches being sold for $600.

I don't mind the bracelet tbh but my expectations at £199 aren't that high. £549 might be a tad expensive but the case and the specs are well worth the £199 I paid

Agree... not worth it at RRP but definitely worth it at less than 38% of that
Great to know that you gave it a chance @GasWorks . I'm eager to read about your experience on your review. Cheers.
Great looking watch, was on my radar as well, but the bank manager prevailed😪. Cool watch enjoy.
