Thanks to Neil and Neil! Stunning for sure, but I am not sure this one is for me. Rose gold and yellow gold together? Plus, I have had enough cocktails for one lifetime already! Cheers, Jody

The gold/rose gold combo give it a faded-vintage look, which fits the sipping whisky cocktails in the reading room dressed in your velvet jacket vibe, like a well-worn watch handed down from your grandfather. That's a compliment btw, we don't always have to be bold and brash and modern.
@dewaynehowse231 9 ай бұрын
The colors are fine together. They play well off of each other. They probably made 10 versions of the case color to match the best one to the dial. It would have been amazing with a bronze case.

That's a gorgeous watch. I was in Tasmania back in 2004, I was half way through my 14 month round the world backpacking trip and what a, beautiful place it is. Tahune Airwalk was great, climbed to the top of The Pinnacle, saw the monument to Louis and Joe, Antarctic explorers, and many other great places. Unfortunately I never saw the distillery, though I did get to see the Cascade Brewery 🍺🍺

This is almost exactly the same design as my Cocktail Time Starlight. The only difference is the colour. That dial looks far more dynamic though. Mine is quite muted until it's in full sunlight.

@benjaminvis 9 ай бұрын
That dial gets instant love from me. I think it has taken the right things from both of your versions. That date does stick out though. Not hideous, but more of a nuisance than an asset. Considering the seconds hand, they might have tried a dark red date wheel. Pity that they sized up for this one, as 38mm is plenty. The style of case construction on these is not my favourite, nor are the cost saving features of hardlex crystal. All in all, I guess the shortcomings absolve me from sourcing one from Australia, but yes rose gold on gold fumé works pretty well for me thanks to the texture and the faceted hour markers all around. The handset also seems made for this dial.

When I first saw the Seiko adds for this I loved it, but I'm not so sure now that I have seen a few real world photos and videos and I agree, rose gold and gold don't go together really well. I do love the brown croc strap though.

I rather like the rose gold-on-yellow gold look. It shouldn’t work, but it somehow does. I just returned a Zodiac Olympos because of poor legibility, but if it had the faceted hands and indicies and longer minute markers that this one does, that would’ve made a difference.

@danielleclare2938 9 ай бұрын
I do not understand the date window on a cocktail watch. You do not need to know the date for having dinner or a dress up day. For regular wearing it is probably the least practical extra. A totally clean dial with 3 hands is much nicer than that sort of ok looking date window. Less is more with a dress watch yet I must admit to appreciating the day date on the ones I have as being retired from day to day working I forget it is Sunday sometimes. Thanks for the show.

Beautiful looking watch but forgive my nitpicking, I wish, like many of the watches of the 1950's and 60's that this watch was inspired by, that it had little dots of lume just outside of the hour markers on the dial and some lume on the hands. Plus the obvious spec of sapphire instead of hardlex (Seiko speak for Hardly Better Than Mineral).

It doesn't need a date complication and the white background of the date wheel looks terrible against that beautiful dial.

Without the numerals, (and without the date) it could have been much more elegant at 39mm but that is a gorgeous dial...

Although not my style of watch, I admire the colors and design very much. Very attractive. Except... ...that glaring date window. I just don't understand the logic. Since the watch isn't designed to be ultra-legible anyway, why not color match the date? (Not that a date is needed anyway. for me). Surely Seiko could make, say, 20 different colored date wheels and use an appropriate one for each dial variety.
