Thanks, it just has arrived and I am starting to like it very much.

The bracelet is for GS SBGM021, this number was on the packaging:
D3E7ABR

It‘s a bitch to put on.

It's hard to choose. I'm a Seiko fan.

I somehow prefer the older dial with the words “Seiko” on it. I know they wanna move away from the regular line to a more uppity one like Toyota and Lexus. But I guess I’m old school...

Can anyone explain with certainty why Power reserve indicator shows empty when it’s pointing up? I’m sure it’s a design consideration and the PRI will typically be full / horizontal while wearing the watch.

What a fantastic photo. I loved reading your defense of this watch in the WUS forums. Some people over there are pretty thick. Ha

haha thanks. I am all for people speaking their mind and sharing their differing opinion....if it has validity to them or in general. I am the first to talk about the crappy second hand used on all SLA models, but other than that, value is in the eye, and I feel I should share being an owner. But I certainly won't allow trolls to bring down the perceived value of my purchase, no way hahaha
