Yes, seemed VERY light when I tried it. Absolutely lovely finishing, my friend swears by it and I’m pretty sure it’s his favourite watch too.
I am not quite sure what I’ll get next, I’m down to 3 “cheapish” watches for now and I want to enjoy them more. -
Always a pleasant surprise when you surface here.

Tell you about it.., how long have you got?! I can’t replicate all the Google, but it’s just as lovely as a Grand Seiko, with less bling. It has all the zaratsu you can want, but the case is hardened Ti, so a little less shiny, and less prone to scratches. It’s accurate. I got mine in October, set it to Winter Time, and on the change to BST, it was 2 seconds out. Date is correct for the next 80 years. Mine’s on a cheap plastic sailcloth strap, so it gets scrubbed once a fortnight with a toothbrush under a tap. It’s as light as a feather, so you never think about it, unless you nerd on the internet. It’s made all my other watches redundant, and you can wear it anywhere, in any company, and it won’t stand out. It looks like a cheapish, solar powered quartz.
No-one wants crown guards on a dress watch. Well they can feck off. If Rolex got their shit together, and made a modern 1016, it would be exactly like this.
