    Hi Curt,
    The dial texture on the STO1 is actually based upon the skin texture found on blue whales and not a wave pattern as is often assumed.

    • @minitwatch

    Happy Saturday Curt! For some reason the OG Save the Ocean just clicks the most for me even though I really love the face of the 2nd Gen more. If there was only some way to mismash em together. As far as the old gym bro, once I was at a Gentleman's Establishment where young ladies practice their dancing skills for your tipping gratitude and this old guy was straight up with no shame wearing silk pajama bottoms as pants. It was obvious why he was doing so and then he disappeared to get private dances. Godspeed old pervy silk pajama pants private dance man! I have a lot of gentleman club stories.

    • @Foxtrot-jr5qu
      @Foxtrot-jr5qu 4 роки тому

      I think it's more like a personal preference and the Seiko just has more clean dress watch feel. The roman numerals and the power reserve are the things that I don't like about the Orient and I can't say which one has better finish, because I have to see both in person. The power reserve isn't that practical as some believe unless the mechanism isn't automatic. Why? If the watch is on your wrist all the time then it's always fully charged and there's no need for you to look at the power reserve and if it isn't then it's either out of power or it's still working and once you put it back on your wrist it will get fully charged after a while. For me it's more like a cosmetic feature rather than a practical must have feature and some people hate it while others like it or simply don't mind it. Also, the price difference is around $100 for the Seiko simply because it was discontinued and as everything discontinued the prices are going up. Just like with everything, people should buy what they like, not what others like so if you like the Orient go for it.

    Mine gains 30 seconds per day. Qhay kind of quality control is that??? For a watch this expensive I expected more quality control. My Casio Oceanus T200 is solar, satellite, pwrpetual calendar, super lume, always exact ro within 1/1000 of a second and is slightly more beautiful. Oh, it also has a button to buzz my phone if I lose it.
    Es bonito pero el mío gana 30 segundos por día lo que quiere decir que una vez a la semana lo ajusto pues para el domingo ya va mal casi 4 minutos. Como puede pasar esto con un reloj tan caro que compré hace un mes? Que control de calidad es ese? Mi Casio Oceanus T200 es solar, satélite, calendario perpetuo, igual lumen e igual belleza, pero no falla. Ha sido un poco decepcionante.
