In my view, nothing to understand. They are a cheap, fun mechanical watch with distinctive (some say polarizing) styling. :)
That last part is the issue. :lol:

these are pretty hard to find these days.

I hate Monster's with a passion and JR made it even a stronger hate.

Also I hate Jap watches :banghead:

Oh and that GMT is 38.5mm, the same as my SARB which I thought would be too small for something with a bit of sporting style, but after wearing the SARB for a couple of days exclusively the size feels right. At least these watches wear light on a bracelet due to their size, because some of these large divers on bracelets were ruining bracelets for me due to weight. The smaller Seiko stuff is too dressy to not wear it on a bracelet with jeans and a t-shirt. The dressy Spring Drive at 41mm and 13mm thick would probably be perfect on any strap with the size of my wrist. Love this one, but not the price.

The GMT is pure class. Love the red GMT hand.
