User reviews
Despite claims that this watch is discontinued, I was still able to order one as of 8/11/2010. However, it is hard to find outside of Amazon, especially at this price.
Also, the user's photo showing this as silver/dark silver are incorrect. The watch is black! Even under intense light it never looks silver. Seiko may have changed the way they darkened the watch though since 2007, or J Lee may have received a different watch variation. But I'm happy with the darkness as it looks exactly like (if not darker than) the Amazon product image which is what I was looking for. The best way I can describe it is as a very dark charcoal gray.
Some things to keep in mind:
- The face of the watch has black dots
- The alarm is single use only and must be set again after it goes off.
- The alarm rings for 20 secs then stops (unless you push a button of course)
- The alarm can only be set in a time frame 12 hours from the current time. So if you wanted to set an alarm for 8 AM you'd have to do so after 8 PM.
- The glow-in-the-dark elements aren't the strongest. My older Seiko from 2001 has a stronger glow.
I wanted to have a persistent alarm, and it wasn't clear from the description that this was a single-use alarm, thus the one star detraction. However, everything else about the watch is fantastic, and I absolutely love the way it looks.
I have thin wrists, but after removing several links the watch fits and stays snug.
