I did actually sent it SSC for a health check but the folks there says everything is good. They conclude that I may not generate enough wrist movement during wear. So I bo bian take it as they are the expert in the field.

So just to understand if this is the characteristics of a auto watch. And ways I can prevent it from happening again. You can imagine adjusting the hands every few mornings while referencing time from my HP.

Get a watch with pwr res or get a manual! You are already adjustment daily what the few sec of winding going to cost

Are you refering to the Explorer series or Explorer I or II? Guess Datejust is too blingy and flashy? :s13:

I'm buying on my first visit thou...... unless no stock! But I expect to spend a good few hours at the shop before buying :D

Was referring to the 214270 :)

Not really. I like the 116234 too. But for me, it would be a fluted bezel with jubilee bracelet. Diamond markers would look good on men too. Doesn't look like a pimp at all

u have to custom make the strap. dam exp tho for shell cordovan.

For something that allegedly lasts "forever", I don't mind paying a premium. Also, Obbigood's shell straps seem fairly priced.

I have 3 straps from Worn&Wound, buy above US $100 to qualify for free shipping and then use vpost or similar to ship to sg.

Didn't think of that, thanks! How are your straps holding up? Do you own any of their shell straps?

Obi Good Label can custom shell strap for u, and use back the original seiko buckle.

Thanks again bro jonleelk. I'll drop by this weekend to check them out. I usually support local businesses whenever possible :s13:
