Those look pretty good, and $199 is hard to beat.

But the alignment in the renders.

Perfectly fine date at 6 in the renders. Then 3:19 in the production model?!?

EDIT: Saw the note about the photos being the old model. Good! That is nuts.

Anytime you see miss alignment, close one eye and check again. They seem pretty good to me. [emoji106]

As long as they don't order their other catalog parts from Seiko, they should be fine for production!

agreed on previous comments, nice deal for $199. If the bracelets are straight forward decent quality, this deal seems like a winner for a lot of folks.

Oh, I do miss the days when I had room in my watch cases for $199 watches. I do love to shop still though!!!
