SUN015

Post by Torrid » Mon Jan 20, 2014 4:17 pm

Thoughts? I think I like it, but it is Kinetic and like most Kinetics it has ugly hands. 44mm, sapphire AR coated crystal. I saw a couple selling under $500.

I like it. GMT hand is my least favorite of the 4 but I don't hate it. Don't think I've seen that hand set from Seiko before.

Supposedly a new one. I like how they used the GS GMT as inspiration.

I knew I should have posted that version. One site has these for $313 shipped, but out of stock. They offer the black on a leather rally strap and that one was $298.

It seems to make the Sumo look small though.

Not to bad looking just that GMT hand looks like it was a after thought. The other hands look more refined than it does.

For the price it has allot going for it.

The hands seem too stubby too. If they reduced the size of the whole watch to 42 then the hands would be the right size.
