I have been looking for a nice watch for some time. I am quite picky and have never paid more than for a watch. I am hard on them. I first looked at a Casio Eco-Drive. They did not have a nice sapphire crystal.
I finally came across the Seiko Dual Chronograph, SPC043. It had the blue face, sapphire crystal and metal band. I figured to give it a try.
I ordered it from Jomashop. It arrived five days earlier than thought and was well packaged. Bravo Jomashop. It has one of the concealed clasps. I am a big guy and the watch just fit out of the box. (I am trying to order another link, but Jomashop is not responding.) The watch has a nice weight and feels nice on the arm. It is quite nice looking. It works well and keeps time well.
Two issues. First, I really have to angle the watch face or tilt it so I can see the primary hands. With everything being blue or silver, the hands do not pop out very well. They blend in a bit. Second, the band is not very adjustable. The concealed clasp is very nice and works well, but there are no fine adjustments possible, at least that I have found. A link is a little less than 1/4". That is actually a lot.
That said, I really like the watch. I have gotten used to tilting the watch face to read the hands and I will find a link. I would rather it a little loose than too tight.
