Nice review, Terry! Glad you dig it. I've enjoyed it for a while but just haven't had the time to do a proper write up.

Anyway, I think it's a great value for the money. It's all the little details that make it so nice and its solid as f$ck.

It hacks and hand winds. It so freaking smooth it doesn't feel like it is winding. :cheers:

I know it's only 25% of your monthly spray-tan budget.

Love the clean dial. Wish it was at least 42mm. Price seems a little steep for a Seiko movement.

The bezel measures in at 41mm and the case is 40mm. The overall finish of this watch warrants the price imo.

I've been wearing a Sinn EZM3 - virtually same dimensions - and have no issues on my wrist (just under 8"). IMO, since this Uno has 22mm lugs, vs 20mm on my Sinn, it should wear just fine for most folks.

Agreed. Love the very simple dial and the narrow look of the bezel insert.
