willy Skrev:Come on john this is the first completly new watch movement since Quartz.A lot of parts for a movement in some watches but not in others.I have read absolutly nothing about any problems with this caliber.Give credit were credit is due Seiko have proved once again that the swiss watch industry have a tendency to fall asleep.I think also it is because the swiss brands do not have the rescources of Seiko.I do not think spring drive is the only new idea that will come from Seiko in the future.It has always been a Swiss problem they are fucking greedy <img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/icon_lol.gif" alt=":lol:" title="Laughing" /> <img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/icon_lol.gif" alt=":lol:" title="Laughing" /> willy
I do give credit and also wrote that - but why 400 parts in it self should be so great is where I (maybe) miss the point.
The technology - Seiko as innovative in this regard - full respect. I would have been happier with fewer parts in a non-chrono and with serviceability locally - but button line - respect for the innovative approach and I do believe it is a great movement.

The spring drive is a unique movement, great technology and as I have understood from tests - very accurate. This may be what qualifies the 400 parts? Anyway - respect for the accuracy also.

I think maybe also the 400 parts will disqualify it from "spilling down" to the lower price-lines of Seiko, which is also an advantage in my eyes - anyway for people spending a lot of money on one of the now.
(you see - I AM trying )
