Review: Amazing watch - I had been considering this watch for 3-4 months before I bought them. I read customers' comments, watched reviews on youtube, and learned all the pros and cons of this watch. You definitely won't be satisfied with its luminescence, moreover, you won't see the time when it's dark. But this doesn't bother me at all. When I first opened the box, I was astonished. They look amazing in real life. Photos and pictures can't show how they are beautiful. I have been wearing them for 7 days and can say they work perfectly. I wind up the watch every day (Seiko suggests 20 turns, but I do 10 turns) and wear it for 3-6 hours a day. Correctness is also at a high level. They are 5-6 seconds faster for five days. I think it's a good indicator for a mechanical watch. The strap band isn't symmetrical. One strap is shorter than another. So it was slightly difficult for me to put on the watch for the first time because I got used to the band of my shock watch. I've read some comments about the unsymmetrical position of pointers and lume. If you look at the watch from different angles it can seem that they are displaced. But when I change the angle, every item stands in its place. I guess it happens because of the form of glass. As far as purchase is concerned, I bought this watch from Electronic Express for the most affordable price among all offers. The delivery was fast, within 2 days.
Review: Looks Smaller Than It Is, Horrible Band - The watch is very nice but like others, I was shocked by the small size; I thohght I had been scammed. The bezel does measure 42mm but the face is 29mm. It is an heavy, beefy watch that looks smaller than it is. I like the watch but that NATO band has to be the ugliest, most uncomfortable, ill-fitting band ever made. Of course I knew that going and like others, I ordered replacement straps at the same time.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: What length is the nato strap?**
A: Good question.  The strap lengths vary greatly.  They assume that a watch this size in mm diameter is going on a big wrist like 7” and beyond.  If your wrist is 7” diameter you can bet it will fit well.  Mine is 7.25 inch and this watch fits perfect. 

Note the lume brightness is almost non existent on this model.

**Q: Are they original seiko watches?**
A: yes

**Q: Can you see the dials at night?  Can't tell if the hands illuminate.**
A: This watch does have lum but because of the blacked out markers and hands the lum doesn't last that long. The bezel doesn't have any lum either.

**Q: If it has an automatic movement, why does the description say it requires a battery?**
A: This watch has the Seiko in house automatic mechanical 4R36 movement.  It has a 40 hour power reserve and operates at 21,600 beats per hour.  You can see from the case back that it is all mechanical and does not utilize a battery.
