Gotta agree.............the power meter should be moved and centered under the 12 and over the seconds sub-dial. Case is very nice and basic dial is fine. |

Eh, at first glance, it looks like a frankenwatch. While I like a power reserve indicator, this one dominates the dial too much. Would like it a lot more without the PR... |

It looks like something Bill Gates would have designed. You know, he tried to copy someone else's watch but just didn't get it right. :D |

But, the fact that the "10" is half erased is enough to keep me from buying this piece. Either make the PR a bit smaller, or make the numbers smaller... but for heavens sake, a cut-off number is unacceptable... |

Dammit, I'm right and everybody else is wrong!!!! |

I think it is more like 85% and growing. Just because everyone uses one product over another doesn't make it better. Better marketing perhaps? But that is changing. Don't get me wrong. I have nothing against Bill Gates or microsoft. Heck, if it wasn't for him not many people would have a home pc. He delivered a product that made home computing attainable to us common folk. Things have changed though. Although on the surface a windows machine is less expensive it can rack up charges in upgrades, support, and software. Not to even mention time and frustration. I use both operating systems. My mac has given me far less problems than my pc. Well worth the extra dollars I spent. I think people are catching on and Apple will continue to steal market share. Apple leads the mp3 market in which they really deliver inferior product. But boy did they market it right. Guess i'm in the minority.... I like that watch. Although you guys are right about all your points about the dial. Something about it, to me, is attractive. |

Mac is very good. They have the market cornered in music editing. like protools. Its just that I'm so used to windows, that it takes me a few days to get used to the mac. |

Actually, the more I look at that watch, the more it looks completely fake. Would Seiko put out something like that? Attachment: attachment.jpeg (Downloaded 12 times) |
