QUOTE(tallrice @ Jan 20 2011, 10:51 AM) yeah... compass is just 1 of the function... Very complicated indeed according to the manual here it is called ROTARY SLIDE RULE it is designed for those who are a profession of a pilot there are many functions and calculations to use it... speed, time and distance travel calculation... calculation of fuel rate consumption, fuel quantity required and remaining cruising time... calculation of climbing altitude, climbing rate and climbing time... conversion of mile, kilometers, fuel pounds, us gallons and etc but i dun know how to use it... i just like the design... very nice and awesome... SEIKO! |

QUOTE(iamadrianlee @ Jan 20 2011, 06:44 PM) Nice. Guan Huat is virustar's shop rite? Been there once. Really? Airasia pilots are wearing speedy?I think N is supposed to be rotated between the sun and the direction you're heading. Pilots used to use watches like these as a backup in case their instruments failed but nowadays I doubt that is the case. I'm currently working on a project at "Now everyone can fly" office and I noticed most pilots there are wearing Omega Speedmaster. That's good to know Any chance to snap some pictures? |

QUOTE(xenothrix @ Jul 9 2011, 06:37 PM) Side note: I wonder if it's normal for an automatic watch to loose precision even worn daily. I notice my 7S26 Seiko 5 is slowing down over days of about 5 days with each day slowing down by approx 1 minute. I have always used to setting my watch to be 5 minutes ahead of actual time. However, over the period of a week, I notice the time goes back to actual time. -1 min per day is abit of usually.from the spec it should be at -20 to +40 seconds per day appx http://watchotaku.com/pages/viewpage.actio...ngVersions=true |

QUOTE(entryman @ Jul 13 2011, 03:24 PM) Hi, can anyone recommend a good service centre with reasonable price for normal servicing of a Seiko 5? Thong Sia is the best place, less than RM100 I think.It's a mechanical watch, used to run for longer time without any movement, but now that time is shortened. I've thought about Thong Sia, but wonder if it's gonna be expensive? Also heard that it might take more than a month? |
