What reviewers and owners say
Reviewers
From 4 reviews we read or watched, 2 of them with a watch supplied by the brand.
Reviewers measure the case at about 39.4 to 39.7 mm wide and 13.2 mm thick, with a lug-to-lug of 47 to 48 mm and 20 mm lugs. They describe a Seiko VK63 mecha-quartz chronograph with a screw-down crown and pushers, solid links with screwed pins and a folding clasp with a diver extension. The watch has no date window. One reviewer finds the lume close to absent and another finds the caseback thin and tinny. Legibility is mixed: one reviewer likes the sub-dial numerals, another finds them far too small.
