NWA: King Seiko

Took long enough! Not at all what I thought I'd get, but this is a 30th birthday/new job watch, won out over Oris, Tudor, Tag, etc. Clean and classy, with a hell of a bracelet. Shout out Royal Jewelers in Andover with my man Bill, straight up G.

Congratulations! Nice King Seiko.

So the bracelet is good? Looks comfy but we all know how that usually goes with Seiko. 😄

Yeah weirdly enough the bracelet may be the best part. Soooo much nicer/well finished/more comfortable than the Oris and Tudor I was looking at

An excellent choice.

That looks awesome! So many watch YouTubers dismiss this model because of the movement, but the design is hard to pass on

Yeah Idk what they were expecting, a GS style hi-beat movement for well under $2k? It's well finished with a classic design and the higher end of their normal line of movements. Weird to expect KS of the 60's/70's but at a price point significantly lower than GS autos. Some reviewers acknowledged this. Overall very happy with my purchase
