But less is more, as far as dress goes.

Thank you for the reply.

I agree completely . . .

Any opinion on the quality?

You're probably right. My woman has a headache so there's some trickle down.



That said, there are dress watches and there are sport/tool watches.

Does anyone know the strap size for this Seiko? I'm going to order it from Roachman, but also want to order a leather band at the same time, because I don't like bracelets and don't want to wait to measure it myself. Thanks a lot.

I'll also re-post this photo by sanrensho, which confirmed that I needed this watch as my first automatic, and needed it to have a leather strap.

I just double-checked my watch. The strap size is 18mm. Also the buckle size is 16mm.

That's a damned handsome watch. I have problems getting my cuffs around those wrist beasts, but I love 'em.

I like leather straps with this buckle. Do they have a special name for this type of strap?
