I have only just really started the journey into watch collecting/appreciation. I this point in time my biggest focus is in the microbrand & Seiko sphere probably because this all started after I had my late fathers 6139-6002 refurbished.

bugger that you've had that experience. I have 8 seikos and 7 are reliable and accurate. I must say though that I find the old warhorse 4R35 bomb proof and I'd take a 6R15 over a 6R35 everyday. (the 8th is a 6R35 of which i have owned 4 - all were less accurate than any of my 6R15's and 4R35s.) On Seiko QC - its not very good to be honest I wouldn't ever buy a seiko sight unseen excepting vintage. My bugbear movement is the SW200 - I've had 5 watches with this selita movement and all but 1 were horrible. Crunchy winding, inaccurate, poorly set crowns and stems. I prefer the Miyota 9000series movements over the SW200. I think we all end up with our nemesis brand/movement.
Picked this up on the presale thingy for 98 bucks can't complain. Does have a wierd thing that there are two sets of spring bar holes on the lugs for thick and thin straps. Never seen that before.
haha - was posted on my nightwork shift on a Sunday, welcome to the 24/7 club. Yes the SPB333 is really a beautiful watch. the fit and finish on mine is superb.
