This one obviously gets a lot of wrist time judging by WRUW. How is it holding up after long term wear (bracelet etc)?
Actually, I'm just trying to even out the wrist time of all my watches. I've been wearing this one and 2 other pieces more often the past few weeks since they got less wrist time last year. But overall, I wear each piece in my very small and humble collection at least once a week.
Performance wise, it's doing well so far. It's 2nd "birthday" is coming up on Nov. 17th. The Seagull ST6 automatic movement inside is such a reliable engine, running at approximately -5 to -7secs/day.
Had it serviced late last year as it had a thin film of moisture under the dial crystal. The watchmaker I go to (who is certified by Seiko and Tissot) cleaned and checked everything, and was quite impressed by the simple yet robust movement. He then changed the gasket in the crown, and sealed the case back with a silicone sealant. You might see some tiny bits in this photo.
It's stock bracelet has solid links and end links, and is quite comfortable on wrist, showing also very little wear and tear. See 1st photo above. I did get at least 10 more bracelets to rotate the watch on.
