Fantastic to see a RU-vid creator not being a gatekeeper of watch collecting. Someone who appreciates watches across the spectrum of prices and brands. It’s refreshing. Also - I believe that the Wolbrook is not a homage of the GO. Plenty of skin divers from the 50s and 60s had this design language - including the original Wolbrook brand. SeaQ has simply been the one brand to bring it back successfully and popularised it again. Don’t quote me on that though!!!
Great variety in your collection, and nice too see you’re upfront and honest about the homage watches. I’m a bit of a Seikopath myself and i find that SLA023 so beautiful and one of the most charming dive watches out there.
Thank you very much for your kind feedback! Much appreciated. Yeah, the Sla023 is an awesome piece and definitely THE Seiko diver to get. The blue is one of the best if not the best on a watch I’ve seen so far.
Hi! I just bought my first automatic, a Seiko SRPE57, and I noticed that the rotor makes a subtle sound when it spins. Is it normal? Is like a subtle bearing sound
Yes, in this case the rotor seems to wind the watch only in one way and not bidirectionally. Other movements provide bidirectional winding without this „noise“
