      @@Talisman2 for $200 I think you’ll have an easier time finding a Seiko over a citizen but either are great, just depends if you want an automatic vs a solar powered watch. I’m not sure what fisol is, I assume you mean Fossil? If you mean Fossil then seiko and citizens are better than Fossil watches.

    I’ve got my first seiko and first automatic watch to add to my collection the Seiko watch I got is the Seiko SRPK33K it’s beautiful watch my collection mainly contains quartz watches, or solar watches. It’s great to have an automatic in the mix and I’ve definitely got the Seiko bug I’m getting some more Seiko watches throughout this year. My next seiko watch I’m getting is the Seiko Prospex Speedtimer SSC813P Panda dial I absolutely love my watches. I love Seiko watches.

My microbrand is an honest reproduction, and if I threw a Seiko dial into it, no one who ever know but me. But since I have no issue wearing a replica (but I would with a counterfeit), I'm into mine for less than $100. That leaves a lot of coin available for additional watch bands.

Usually that leaves out, clasp, movement regulation, and QC. My experience is that it is best to get Seikos that are the top line (with zaratsu and undecorated GS movements) or the very cheap entry Seikos. Avoid the middle.
