I rather like that, despite not really understanding the point of the bezel along with the digital display!

This is lovely Chris. A timeless classic.

Not really. I have yet to see a fake dial that is very good though (but I haven’t been paying attention much lately so things might have changed?). Perhaps JimW knows more? There is some discussion about the dials here: https://www.thewatchsite.com/threads.../#post-1156410
I'd also be interested to see a list as well.
I was actually looking at these today prior to seeing this thread and saw SL's previous posts and the pics posted during its service.
I'd love to own one but it's tough to find a genuine one.
I've seen fakes with 700J etc on the dial.
Any tips greatly appreciated :)
Apart from the usual - bevel around the date/day window, length of 6 marker and the A in Japan, I think the main thing to look for is the quality, size and spacing of all the print on the dial, and the quality and texture of the lume...... and the rear of the dial, (which you cannot see unless you take it out of the case), then the bezel insert and hands need to be looked at
Ah yes, I did spot that after I’d posted and wondered if that was how it worked. I couldn’t believe that Seiko would create a piece that was only for aesthetics.
It does look good though. I do like it! What’s the model number?

Even with the big CV hanging over our heads, its hard to pass up a bargain - especially when it looks like this!!
Fancied trying one of these for a while. Spot on alignment, which was a surprise!
Recently new to this forum and after reading some posts I picked myself up one of these, now to find a nice strap

I’ve always liked a cream dial, but often found it difficult to see the hands in poor light. Seiko have got it cracked with this one.

Today my trusty SKX009 which I've had for years and my 'go to' holiday watch which is probably the most travelled of all the ones I own.
Bezel has taken on a nice sun faded look
Thanks
Mike
