Nope.

The 4 default are as follows:
Black dial black bezel
Blue dial blue bezel
Green dial green bezel
Black dial green bezel

You can play around with the above configuration.

1) j series is just made in Japan. K series is others. But are using same movement. It depends on the quality control and assurance already. Made in Japan would so call be better.Some dial maybe different from J and K like the skx007. If not nothing Much.

2) skywatches and k2 usually are parallel import. Thong sia don't service them if I am not wrong. I just got my Seiko from Japan and it's warranty is from thong sia. Local distro

Thanks for the reply. Learnt something today. And you are right - the skx007 dial is slightly different with small imprints at the bottom. Otherwise, both look the same.

Didnt managed to find out the price from K2. I had bought the skx007 at Skywatches. Comparing the price at another watxh shop, it was actually a good bargain.

Thanks for the advice. Very much appreciated.

My first Seiko watch was bought from skywatches. In hindsight, I believe K2 is the cheapest place in Singapore to get Seiko watches.

I used the receipt to send my Seiko watch back because of an issue (although the service center couldn't find it and solve it), so you don't have to worry about that.

However, the receipt ink may fades away in a few months so you might want to take a photo of it with the watch.

Noted on the receipt and gonna take a pic to safekeep it. Skywatches had a pretty wide range of SEIKO watches. I bought the skx007 and now with good advices here on the shop authencity, I guess I gonna add another one or two purchase :)

Thanks for replying and advice.

Skip to 3:15 to see the differences. There's Made in Japan for J version, and 21 Jewels.

Skywatches price is usually quite competitive, apart from getting online and K2. Ya but I didn't get warranty card if buy on the spot, just the receipt. Not sure if get from them online would get the warranty card.
