Some people complain about the accuracy of the 6R35 movement, but most of them have the International market model (SPB249). What's your experience with the accuracy on this JDM Model? Thanks!
@fratini. Seiko tends to be very conservative about its movement specifications. For this model in particular, it's quite accurate running at less than 10 sec variance per day. 👍🏼
I have this watch. Beautiful, but the clasp on the bracelet protrudes and the lack of micro adjustment meant I couldn't get a good fit. I put it on leather, which I prefer. The 6R35 movement does not have good accuracy, Seiko need to up their game as the ETA movements used by Tissot at a similar price point are much better in this respect.
You could always to to order the Seiko compatible clasp cover from Uncle Seiko/Uncle Straps. That will give you one more microadjust hole for the bracelet. I personally didn't need it, but I've seen several people on reddit use them to get a better fit.

That would look good with a dark blue leather strap
@kashikitsune8724 Wow cool! Will try it soon, thanks for the great suggestion!
Prospex X logo means it will never even get consideration. Get rid of that garbage Seiko, make it 36mm, and you have customers.
