I don't really understand why buying a seiko generic movement for the same price or more than a real seiko...
I know, all the "K" series are made in China, like Orient, BUT in some way, when I buy a 200m WR seiko I feel safer to swim with than another lambda pseudo watchmaker...
DoctI think it'd be durn near impossible to find a similarly styled/built Seiko in that price range. If the build quality is worth even half of the MSRP (Amazon sells this watch for 350, fwiw) then it'll be fine by me. I love the color selection....I just need one of those fence-sitters to mash the "BUY" button so I those of us that are interested don't get skunked.
