Nice watch!

Thank you... Here's another shot of the Seiko SDGZ013. Limited edition of 500 pieces to commemorate 50th Anniversary of chronograph.

Thanks for reply!

Oops, I didn't see if the watch would stop completely, cos I put it on after.. Maybe I should let it run down. Some people online say that Orient Star's real power reserve is more like 48 hours though.. Whereas the indicator is 40 hours. I always thought the indicator was connected to the mainspring though.

Yes, when I wind/move the power reserve meter will charge as well.

not sure about orient real power reserve, but I always thought there should still be some reserve left even the meter indicate empty. that's why I believe it is the "reserve" that is working (just how long can the reserve last)

Good to hear the power reserve meter will charge/move. don't think any wrong with your watch.

I free I try out my orient star and let you know.

Just a question - is it possible for a power reserve indicator to be at zero and the watch is still running?

Should be ok as mentioned by reiziki it should be ok. It should run for a while (no sure how long) when the power reserve indicator hits zero.

I'm letting mine run till it hits zero before checking how much longer it will run.

K I'll just let my Star take a rest first then.

Thanks slow_mo and reiziki for your replies.

if you can secure a near mint omega 2254.50 for each of those here who has expressed keen interest (say from one of your japan trips), I'm sure you'll instantly become their bff.

haha it was chanced upon by luck. wasn't even looking.
was actually finding for mm300 and i got it.
the 2254 is a bonus

to be honest, if looking at 2.5k and below, sure can get. anything above is kinda overpriced at the current market

for local market, yes.

seems ang-mo market is higher... (eg wus ads...)

even at this prices, it's relatively affordable.

haha, you're also a lucky dude like me to chance upon the desirable and elusive 2254.50 ... goes to show that this watch with a cult following is 名不虚传, able to maintain its price in resale market now matching or sometimes even exceeding its retail price when it was still in production!
