Watchlords

I just pre-ordered the same Seiko watch IWB did. it was a toss up though with the Salmon dial version. There is a drop box in the right hand corner that will give you currency options. Also taking a hard look at the Seiko Presage - 39.3mm Sharp Edge series which has a snowflake style dial.

Waiting for the new Seiko sharp edge price to drop. Booyah!

Things don't seem to have changed all that much. The 1000m Tuna is the same price it was a decade ago.

I think there is a bigger number of mid-priced vs low-cost options so the perception of cost has changed.

Back a few years, Aries Lee (at the time a deputy general manager at Sea-Gull) said the brand he most admired was A. Lange & Söhne, stating "In a few years, with two or three hundred employees for a production of around 5,000 watches per year, the brand has moved to the top. This is an example for Sea-Gull."

Although my own collection, and most of my knowledge (such as it is), lies in another niche in the collecting world, I admire Seiko. They're a company to learn from. They have a formidable history, and they do a huge range of things very well.

I saw that, too. Nice looking watch. I also like that Margarita Presage.
