This impressive, features-packed pilot's watch from Seiko is a sophisticated blend of function and style. The solid steel case and bracelet highlight a round black dial with luminous hands and markers, a red sweep seconds hand, and a date display at the three o'clock hour. Three chronograph subdials register up to 60 minutes of elapsed time in 1/10 second increments. The dial is capped with a highly scratch-resistant Hardlex crystal and framed by a matching black bi-directional rotating bezel with a rotary compass and a slide rule for rapid calculations and conversions, including multiplication, division, speed, distance, fuel consumption rate, and fuel conversions. Other notable features of this watch include precise quartz movement and a screw-down locking crown. This Seiko watch is rated water resistant to 100 meters. About Seiko
In 1877, at the age of 18, Kintaro Hattori set up business repairing the Western-style clocks that were becoming increasingly popular in Japan. By 1892, Hattori was manufacturing his own clocks in a factory he called Seikosha, from the words "seiko" meaning "exquisite," "success," or "miniature," and "sha" meaning "house." The company grew and prospered, producing its first wristwatch in 1913 and launching the Seiko brand in 1924. Technological innovation has always been a driving force in the company's history. Key milestones include Seiko's introduction of the world's first quartz watch in 1969, and its successful launch, in 1988, of the Kinetic, the world's first battery-free watch with quartz accuracy. Recognized for its technological excellence, Seiko has provided timekeeping services for the Olympic Games and the World Cup Soccer Championships. Today, the Seiko brand continues to stand for state-of-the-art technology, as well as superior quality and refined design.

 Great watch, better price! May 11, 2008
I lucked out and got this watch for $40 less than it is now!! I don't know why, but Amazon had it on sale for about a day at $95 and I snatched it up! Great watch!! It looks like a $500 watch easy. Keeps good time. Nice weight and feel to it. Can't recommend enough.
Seiko creates a timepiece that is stylish, affordable, and versatile May 6, 2008
I've had this watch for about two years now, and I don't think there has been a day since that it hasn't been on my wrist, mainly because it is so versatile. I wear it with jeans/t-shirt outfits as well as my most expensive suits.
The watch is very stylish, and the quality, looks, and features are what you would typically find on watches in the $300-$400 range. As evidenced in the picture, the watch is a classic black-faced chronograph. There is also a nice, red second hand that counts off the seconds when the chronograph is activated.
The timekeeping has been excellent, and I am still on the original battery. The documentation that came with the watch was very good, and I was pleasantly surprised to see that it came with a decent-quality case (though I wear mine so frequently that I don't bother storing it). I haven't mastered the slide-rule calculator, but there is the capacity to do some rather advanced mathematical calculations.
It is quite possible that you will need to have a link removed to get the watch to fit properly. All of this depends on the size of your wrist, obviously, but even if an adjustment is required, it will not cost much to have it done by any jeweler. Of course, if you have the time, tools, and inclination, you can do this yourself.
If you're looking for a high-quality, accurate, and stylish timepiece at a great price, it's tough to do much better than this one.
 Great watch May 6, 2008
Extremely satisfied and it looks awesome.... the only problem I found was to adjust the date and time,but would definately recommend to anybody
Very beautiful watch, must know about "screw-down locking crown" May 1, 2008
Very beautiful watch, 40mm dial is not to big its looks great. Only complain I have with it's help book because It doesn't explain how to set the time I spend more then 3 hours to pull out it's crown, actually it has "screw-down locking crown" that mean you can't pull crown directly as we do in most of watch, it's crown is screw bases so first we have to rotate the crown toward bottom of the watch then only we can pull the crown and after setting date and time we have to press the crown and then need to rotate it towards top of the watch.
Above faction is not written anywhere in booklet comes with watch, that's why I am going to give it 4 star only.
Great watch...band is problematic April 25, 2008
I have no complaints about the watch itself, however, I had to pay an additional $12.95 to a jeweler to have the band resized. I've worn Seiko watches for 40 years and this is the first time I couldn't unlink the band to resize it on my own. Apparently you need a special tool. Now it fits. I'm happy.
