ThelawlnessNot a sapphire crystal (mine actually fractured against a door frame, see previous post), noisy movement, time +/- not great, the leather band is three piece and de-laminates. I'd rather have a used Seiko over a new Spinnaker. The case and extra band is a nice perk but I just think you can find better at the price. Or, write it off if something happens to it.
MrCleanI believe the bezel "crystal" is different from the actual mineral crystal (my bezel cracked from a tap, but I've knocked the face of the watch harder and zero damage). It's only $130... haven't seen automatics with sapphire crystals at that price point. Would jump if I ever did.
MrCleanMaybe I got a good one but mine is holding pretty accurate. I keep it on a watch winder at night and haven't had to adjust it much more than +/- 2 seconds every few days, though honestly I don't check it ever day but it seems to be always in the ball park. I wear it just about daily and have had no issues with scratches or cracks in the crystal. My leather band is holding up fine and no issues with it delaminating though the second floating strap band did break off. Personally I don't need it anyway as I have a thick wrist.
