hmmm I have always wanted to know why seiko markes some of the automatics with a different colour in the bezel (sometimes on the face) from the 12 O'clock to the 4 O'clock? just like on the Seiko PEPSI's and even some Seiko 5's
What does the marks mean? example of the SRP155K1  This post has been edited by fariq_azad: Nov 9 2011, 11:51 AM |

Agreed with you..black is quite common the black too mainstream and "safe".

QUOTE(fluffy6640 @ Nov 9 2011, 12:49 PM) @ fariq_azad & walikard; Thanks fluffy learnt sumthing new today...but the one from the picture I posted does not have a rotating bezel so I guess marking it red is purely for design sake?its always been a diver/submariner thing. but i did a little googling, and i found the below:- » Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... « the more here ---> http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diving_watch#Bezel_markings @Nitheon dang! that's a nice collection! hehe. and yes, i would love to have the seamaster as the GRAIL! Nitheon : Nice collection... and Nice box too where can I get one of those boxes? That box would be perfect for since I only have 5 watches at the moment.I have a CASIO for my Beater... errr does GRAIL mean that the watch hardly sees action???

oh yea, that does not have a rotating bezel..could be like u said, purely looks
by grail it means its the watch in your collection which is most loved,normally the most expensive (hehe) and worn on special occasions (to some ppl). |

Fariq - I got the watch from the House of Leather in Mid Valley. The irony is that it isn't leather but PVC. Cost me RM160. Good, sturdy case. Just have to overlook the PVC.
And yes, like Fluffy and yourself have said, the grail sees less action than the beaters since any injury to it would result in some form of cardiac arrest! |
