Congrats Rolf! Nice looking piece I must say! Yes, alignment day/date seems to have a trouble....Strange that it repeats itself on other watches: Must be a serial defect Seiko should have correct.Thx buddy:0) Regarding the day/date misalignment, I might have been a little hasty. It seems that the movement starts the date-change sequence already at half past nine, and is not completely done (changing date, day and kanji/english) until three 0´clock at night. So when I took the photos, it was actually started changing, hence the misalignment. As I look at it now, at 16:50, the day/date is close to 100% perfect.
I hope it will not affect your mind on it: Can be an irritating little detail sometimes...
I still don't understand why Seiko don't make this version with automatic movement: As a cheaper version of the "Darth Tuna"...
So the others I have seen on web, having the same "problem" might also be just this ...
And on the auto-version of this one, I totally agree ...They would sell A LOT of them I think. But then again, Seiko wouldn´t even sell this outside Asia, so maybe they just don´t need more money?
