QUOTE(kotmj @ Jul 23 2019, 11:40 PM)  I mean, just look at how short the minute hand on their bestseller is. Not only is it short, but there is very little surface area near the tip due to the syringe design. This makes the hand appear very stubby. This one looks like my watch. I guess your point is that the minute hand should be very long, but it's pretty much a preference. There's no cold hard rule to you point right? Some may like how Seiko has done it, some like the long ones that overlaps. I don't even realize this until you brought it up. Hahaha, i guess i'm just ignorant. |

QUOTE(x-1o8-x @ Jul 24 2019, 12:40 AM) i'm pretty fine with seiko's decision on their minute hands length tbh, don't see how it could be an issue  compared mine and they both look great  regardless of minutes hand length  The length of that minute hands just highlight how poor it is. |

Somehow, on their Grand Seikos, they managed to get it right.  |

Notice the Grand Seiko hand lengths conform to the canonical/historic formula:
1. The hour hand just touches the base of the hour indices.
2. The minute hand reaches to the TOP of the minute markers.
A.L. Breguet and the clockmakers of old including that of the Big Ben used this formula.
