Hey guys need some help. Looking to purchase a similar looking black watch like in the spoiler. But the thing which is bothering me is with the casing and bracelet being black stainless steel and all will it be prone to scratches and colour fade over time?

Just got myself a Seiko Sportura Dual Retrograde Chronograph for everyday wear.

When I first saw the pics of this watch it looked pretty weird to me but it was love at first sight IMO when I saw it at the shop. Pictures don't do this watch any justice.

Haha sure, to be honest I'm not too sure about the functions myself LOL Haven't had the time to go through the manual. Will have a look at it and post it up when I post the pics.

Btw does anyone know if Seiko's warranty cover poor workmanship? A colleague of mine bought a Seiko the same time as I did which was around last Saturday but after just a day wearing the wording on the watch's crown is already chipping off. Poor lad IMO. I have examined the watch myself and everything is in pristine condition apart from the chipped wording. Couldn't have been caused by impact or anything because if any impact is strong enough to chip off those wordings there is bound to be a mark or two or maybe even scratches. Wordings as in for example the word "Tachymeter" on the crown with an alphabet or two with a part missing.
