Seiko Flighty - sold, regretted, bought again

Last year I sold it in a scaling-down frenzy, seller’s remorse kicked in, bought it again. Not gonna leave my collection again! Too special and beautiful!

Wow... Shame on you... Now I need to order one for myself!

Is it a prerequisite that all flighty's hate have a marine national nato?

That is the thing with Seiko watches.

every time i sell one, i end up buying 1 or 2 new ones.

It looks great on this watch, it’s 21 mm and it’s the most comfortable strap ever 🙂

Very cool looking watch. Love the yellow seconds hand.

I scaled down from 11 to 7 last year, now I’m back to 12 and I’m planning to get a quartz Islander diver later (isl-100).

Wanted to add what I like about it so much:

1. ⁠Design: I really like the design, it’s very unique and I find it beautiful. Domed Hardlex is also something special.
2. ⁠Chronograph: I also like (although don’t really use) the chronograph function.
3. ⁠Accuracy: this is the most accurate quartz movement I’ve ever had.
4. ⁠Value: incredible value for the price.

Same with me, but in front I knew I could buy a second one. Great watch and I'm using the slide tule bezel almost every day.

We have the same date shown 😁 picture was taken November 5th.

Very nice! What do you calculate with the bezel?

Simple calculations like the product or devision. And some conversions of units. From US standards to Metric.

Even a tip in a restaurant (%).

It's fun to do, but you need good eyes to read the numbers on the bezel.

Good eyes, for sure 😄
