I considered buying this, I like it but the roman numerals are not my thing.

Still keeping +1sec per day on this longines. The 2892 is amazing.

>> No.14076818

It blows my mind how inaccurate Seikos are. Outside of their super expensive models their watches are +/-40 seconds a day almost.
That's laughably bad and yet you weebs keep buying them. If I'm getting a watch i want it to be accurate

I have an SNK809 and the worst is does is 5 a day, if you're actually seeing 40 difference a day you need to hit it with a hammer.

My uncle worked in the ship yard and wore it everyday without fail until his death bed so most the marks are permanent, it could definitely do with a clean up though. Just got it back from a fix as the hands stopped working. Suprised they didn't do it then. But ah well.

Still love this watch and wear it everyday I can, it's not flash or in your face, but if someone who knows their watches comes up to me for a chat about it on the odd occasion, I'm happy to have a conversion with what watch knowledge I have I'm appreciative I was left this.
