SLA037: Question about durability of the 8L55 hi-beat movement
Forgive my ignorance, I am not yet up to speed on Seiko's higher end movements. I am contemplating a SLA037 (it’s stunning) and one of the items I wanted to check on is the hi-beat movement. Specifically, its tolerance for bumps and bruises. I have the usual assortment of SKXs with the 7S26 movement as well as a few modern Rolex Subs/GMTs. In all cases I have never been afraid to swim, paddleboard, and otherwise knock about my watches. (within reason) Anything to consider with this one and the hi-beat movement? I am not an accuracy snob (I’ve never once checked to see if I am plus/minus a few seconds a day) but I do want to be able to reasonably use my divers, to powerboat, paddle, and, well, dive. :)
Apologies if the answer is an obvious, "the watch is tougher than you, wear it like you would any other diver." Thanks! |
