Very impressive watch
I have a Omega Planet Ocean GMT, a Tudor Black Bay GMT and a Rolex GMT. So far this Seiko is the most comfortable to wear, very legible and more accurate then the Tudor Black Bay. Still comparing it to the Omega which is phenomenal in its accuracy but a big heavy watch. Biggest difference is the Seiko lacks the "quick set" hour hand which is very handy for international travel as I use the GMT had as reference time and use the outer 24 ring as the "quick set" to offset GMT to a 3rd time zone. On the Seiko have to set the hour hand then go back and re-adjust the GMT hand. The Rolex is at this point just a waste of money that OK, gives you the prestige but I have so far had the 24 hour ceramic ring, a) fall out completely and then when replaced, b) develop a crack and Rolex and the watch shops just shrug and say well for another $500 we will sell you yet another ring....Money ahead to trade in the Rolex, invest the money and purchase this Seiko...!! Other realistic item to consider is with a Seiko on your wrist you are not a target for thieves and if it breaks, fails, gets lost or stolen, just buy another. Good luck doing that with a Rolex...!!. Rolex have done an excellent job of making their product Veblen good (look it up) whereas with this Seiko product you get incredible value for money that does everything the Rolex does except for the hour hand quick set function. So it takes me 30 seconds longer to adjust my watch when crossing time zones but for a difference in price of around 3,000% between the Rolex and 1,100% to the Tudor Black Bay that is way less accurate then the Seiko, take this Seiko. If you want all of the features of the Rolex GMT, go for the Seiko Spring Drive GMT. More accurate and 1/2 the price. Read moreVer másVer menos
