I see a lot of people saying good things about this watch but there are a few things I'm disappointed with personally. For reference I got the Green/PVD version. The leather strap is WAY too thick and the material feels really cheap and plasticy, also when I pulled mine out of the box the fixed loop on the strap was stretched out too large and not straight. There is also a LOT of slop in the bezel, for comparisons sake my Mako USA II has absolutely none.
Perhaps the biggest issue is that the watch came with a warranty card but the card did not have the date of purchase or the dealer stamp filled out, meaning the warranty is useless. That alone is extremely disappointing.

msnyderI got the black/rose gold
While I agree with some points like: - warranty card not stamped - leather strap too thick and not straight from sitting in the box
I disagree with: - leather strap cheap - this strap alone is like $25. It's thick, well made and water resistant - the bezel has a great feel to it, really firm and like spring loaded, you don't get this kind of firmness even on $150-$250 Seikos
The watch overall feels very sturdy and has a decent weight to it.
This thing is an ABSOLUTE STEAL at $99 SHIPPED! Automatic, hacking, Manual wind, Glass back, screw down crown... I don't want to spoil the surprise for others by uploading pictures of it... I had my doubts and even buyer's remorse after some time... but it's amazing!

msnyderSeiko often come with a blank warranty card too, it is not uncommon. This is not a dress watch, and the leather strap is well depicted as being thick in all the photos. It is definitely decent quality for the price-point. Yes, the bezel is sloppy. It is well noted in just about every review and mention of the watch I have seen, just like the weak lume. As Micky pointed out, it is a ton of watch for the money.
