QUOTE(x-1o8-x @ Jul 15 2019, 01:19 PM) that watch is a great exception cause the dials are really great and the polishing on it is equal to that you find on a stainless steel model. i own the baby snowflake SARW041 and when i compared it to the GS hi-beat weeks ago, i was both disappointed and glad, cause the differences in finishing are pretty minimal with the GS having a little more refinement, but glad cause for what i paid for, there really is nothing else equal to my baby snowflake in the same price point. but you're right, looking online alone can't tell you much, i've yet to try on any citizen because they just aren't my type. the turtle sure doesnt feel cheap to me, though it really looks so cause of the lack of multiple bevels which i generally expect to have in higher tier watches QUOTE(x-1o8-x @ Jul 15 2019, 01:21 PM) try fully winding it via the crown and see if it still stops after 1 day (24 hours) if it does then you should go send it for warranty claim. QUOTE(andrewhtf @ Jul 15 2019, 01:44 PM) manually wind it in full then leave aside and see if it stop within 36hours. anything less, send it in. thanks bro, shall try |

now i know why people say "buy a rolex to impress others, buy a seiko to impress yourself"
i owned the mm300 (SLA021) and a month later i bought a submariner (T<25) granted the sub was an old watch circa 90's, i also did try on the latest sub-c (114060) and i am actually amazed by how solid and premium the mm300 feels compared to the sub. |

QUOTE(andrewhtf @ Jul 16 2019, 12:05 PM) LOLwell MM300 = premium pricing but still unregulated movement. i find this very unacceptable. some grand seiko models also still feature the misaligned bezel and seiko JP considers it "within tolerance" bottom line is that phrase is just seiko fanboys trying to bash on rolex, when both brands IMO are great, no need to bash others. |

Well, TBH my STO turtle’s chapter ring is misaligned. No choice as it’s a purchase through the net, but seriously it doesn’t bother me 1 bit. It’s not like I can’t tell the time from looking at it lol.
