Re: SPB149/SBDC107 Seiko Diver's 1965 Modern Re-Interpretation

Wow. I could get down with this. Totally missed the SPB149 part of the Trilogy announcement just seeing the High Beat. Not cheap but at least accessible and enough in the edition to be able to get one. Will be following very closely. This exactly one day after getting a new green Sumo and already looking at next Seiko.

About +\- 25 seconds a day, which is really annoying but...it fits like a glove and looks fantastic.

If you know how the positions run you can offset. Mine is currently at -0.04 spd after 2 weeks of constant wear. Which on paper is outstanding. But positional variance is pretty bad, from +13 spd dial up to -19 spd crown down. Average while on wrist is about +5 spd.

If you use those positional variances to your advantage while resting overnight things average out. But I would definitely prefer a more stable rate.

That aside it's an incredible watch.
