Post pics of your watches ***Please NO QUOTING PHOTOS***

Wearing a real favourite today (my wedding watch).

It's a Seiko SBGX063. Inside is the astonishing 9F quartz movement, based around crystals which Seiko grow in house, age for three months, and select the most accurate for use in the Grand Seiko line (at this time at least).

It uses twin pulse motors, so the second hand actually moves twice per second (you can see it in super slow mo), and this gives it enough power to drive the full size Grand Seiko dauphine hands, as you can see. Each hand is mounted on an independent axis, for precision/smoothness.

It also means the battery changes are every three years, which is great for such a small unit. And, if you can't get to a Seiko service centre, it will accept any brand battery.

It has an "anti-backlash" feature. Most "standard" quartz movements can be seen to produce a bit of a wobble when the second hand stops, again in slow mo if not in real time. In a 9F a regulatory wheel is installed to stop the second hand dead, without vibration. This also assists in ensuring the second hands hits every marker dead on, to the naked eye although mine is presently a little off in one sector.

Rated for accuracy at a phenomenal +_ 10 seconds a year. Mine is well within that spec.

As a throwaway "why not" they got the date change down to 1/2000th of a second dead on midnight.

The movement itself is preserved in a sealed cabinet, preventing entry of dust/debris. Seiko recommend servicing about very 50 years or so. I take this with a grain of salt, because I can see the second hand of mine missing a couple of its marks here and there.

I love everything about the watch (ok the bracelet and clasp are not really top of the class - the design is basic but good quality, and works "fine" - just there have been advances here over the last 10/20 years, and there is no micro-adjust).

Seiko do this style of gents sports watch so well. You can put this watch on a leather strap and its as close to a classic dress watch as doesn't matter, or you can wear it with jeans and a t-shirt. It's a good example of how a 37mm dial can wear, when the proportions are right. It has lots of presence on the wrist. The champagne dial is a stunner, and is the same (but smaller) as is used in the spring drive model. The hands, indices etc are all finished with the same precision as any other Grand Seiko.

I also like that this one has the old school GS and Seiko branding (albeit on my SBGA2011 I prefer the cleaner dial design, which allows more of the dial to be exposed).

TLDR: Here is my watch. It's just a quartz.
