I initially thought the same about the silver dial, but I ended up with the inverse panda. Three things helped with my decision: 1, being a limited edition for the seiko's 100 years as a brand, that is a milestone that only can be seen each century, so they will launch around 9 watches from their entire line to celebrate it. 2. The leather strap is really good and the 3 folding buckle is fantastic for preserving the leather with no signs of wearing. I have seen such buckle design only in high end watches. See it like you are buying a limited edition and a little pricy strap for $200 extra, which in my opinion makes totally sense just because the strap and buckle. 3. I already had a panda chrono (totally different style) with silver dial and black complications. What I didn't like? the date window, but in the black dial is less noticeable. The X prospex logo on the dial, a beefy but practical though generic not signed crown (Common Seiko, it's a limited edition that deserves a signed and screwed crown ). Finally, with a change of the leather strap, with a tan color, the watch reminds me to the Zenith El Primero Chronomaster Original, another relevant watch in history. So int he end 3 watches in one
🇨🇦 Seiko always made the Best Automatic Chronographs ! Mine has an outer tachymetre bezel and an adjustable inner bezel, is totally automatic and accurate with both day and date windows ! Can you guess what it is ? 🇨🇦
Beautiful piece, a must if one is looking at sensible chrono money with heritage. Being picky in an ideal world I would have tapering on the bracelet and a signed crown. Otherwise this is my next purchase have for sure. Nice review mate thank you. Subbed.
Wait... the minute counter doesn't jump? It just scrolls along like a regular minute hand during timing? Omg that is uncalled for. Their vertical clutch column wheel chronos were jumping minutes in the 60s and 70s!
This one looks better than the limited edition, but both are in my wish list. You are the first on youtube to review that dial, thank you!
I agrée. It’s on my wish list as well. Great looking watch 🔥

And you work for Seiko, right?
This watch looks both vintage and contemporary. Love it!

This is beautiful but no signed crown again!
Wow, Beautiful Watch.
Would you mind measuring the thickness of the watch as well? Thanks

One thick boy
Not bad at all.
That date sucks.
