After I look around, I found this to be an excellent deal. So far, price in this style is the best, bars non (Amazon Jomashop etc) Quartz is good, old school solid goods, I had a very old Longines that is quartz and quartz 500m divers. Solid dress watch. This thing would be so expensive if is automatic (like a patek philippe will cost more than a avg. house), and I do love this do-it-all busy as dress watch, especially Seiko thoughtfully put a alarm in it.
Pros: This is not NUMBER but simple indicator edition compare to other 2 different style (which I hate, the hideous numeral indicator.....) Price: Massdrop did it right this time. Function: I had to learn leap year and other different setting by watching videos but this is well worth it. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZbV5gsVo7Yw
Cons: I can't come up with a con, this is perpetual calendar QUARTZ watch, there ain't many option in this price range. Pair up with stainless steel watch bracelet to fit occasion. last thing I want to point out is the battery life, I don't know how long it will last.
Thanks for reading.

erichung1218It's a quartz watch for 100 bucks. Kind of expensive and it is only wp to 100 meters, so the same as any other seiko. And a 2016 or 2032 battery (not sure which is in here) would probably last a year. Maybe less because this does have a ton of movement factors (7 arms?). I would probably go for a Bulova if i were to aim for quartz movement in this price range. But why anyone would go quartz... It's 2017 man! Get a well tuned automatic or solar :)

smallbitI have always use rule of 5:
Diver-Beater (500m Victorinox Small day/date travel(Seiko titanium Dress (this, I had old Longine also quartz Utility/Sports/Outdoor (Suunto Tool watch/ beater/daily(Submariner
Since I always keep 5, and sold/gift away any replacement. I only see the quartz keep coming back, I love quartz because is accurate and easy to maintain.
Solar is ok but I only keep 1 automatic at time, I would never get a winder for multiple automatic watch, just too much hassle to deal with. My submariner is from my family so it had special meaning, I also purchase a invicta submariner homage to get used to the automatic.
