Great looks, great quality,

This review is from: Seiko Men's SNDA65 Chronograph Strap Watch (Watch)
Pros:
*Accurate. Haven't had to adjust it since I set it 6 months ago.
*Excellent quality. At this price, the quality and finish are very good. Haven't really tested the water resistance.
*Black Ion Finish. I am really surprised at how well the black ion finish has held up after 6 months. I thought for sure it would be really dinged and scratch up by now. Rubbing against metal doors and desk, it's held up well. You can see the dings up close, but the black finish is still intact. Haven't yet tested concrete, as I'm sure it would get gouged, but hopefully I won't have to.
Cons:
*Chronograph fun to watch, but don't use much
*No perpetual calendar
Overall, I'm very happy with the watch, and am surprised at how well the black finish as held up. Great looking timepiece.

This is a great, manly watch with good size (big watches are "in"), excellent build quality and nearly perfect time keeping. I haven't lost a second against the atomic clock since I set it a week ago. My automatic self-winding Baume & Mercier loses about 5 seconds per day for comparison.
The Seiko SNDA65 looks a little like an IWC Top Gun, but also has a fast moving chronograph sub-second hand that behaves like a tiny Tag Heuer Mikrograph that makes one revolution per second. With this watch's 1/20 second resolution, you can say your car goes 0-60 in 5.75 seconds and I love how resetting the chronograph makes all the hands quickly spin clockwise back to a vertical position. The sub-dial at the 6 o'clock position looks like another clock so I'm guessing the chrono can time up to 12 hours. Sorry, I did not RTFM.
The strap is actually pretty nice considering it's made of backpack strap stuff and it fits well on me along with the big case, even though I don't...Read more

Seiko Men's SNAB65 Alarm Chronograph Leather Strap Watch
I have owned this watch for approximately 2 years and wore it daily for the first year and now wear it several times a week. It has remained fully functional, its quite durable, and remains very accurate. The nylon strap is hefty and comfortable. The case is brushed stainless and has been exceptionally durable showing no signs of loss of petina. For a casual watch that looks nice and last long, you cannot go wrong for the price!
