Seiko File: Inside a Grade Seiko......Quartz!

The finish work is evidence even there. Seiko has amazing attention to detail.

wow, thats an amazing quartz movement!

. . . That seems quite large for a quartz movement Doc. I'm used to seeing them " float " in the centre of the case somewhat. I know that the movement in the Sawtooth i just ordered is not that large . . .

here's a 7N36 in a Sawtooth . . .




and here's a 7C46 in a Tuna




' ' ' ' Heck of a difference there . . . .

. . . . Man, you are . . . . well . . . . .

That's really something to see Doc ! A quartz movement that
looks NICE !..Seiko never seems to forget about perfection. Even
with these movements they make sure the quality and performance
is there !..The gold of the movement also has kind of a sunray effect
happening as well ! Thanks again !

Hey Spanky, they used to make good watches. I would love to own a Scooby. Or an SAN II. Okay, that's only 2 watches.

Well folks, remember it is a Grand Seiko and the movement is one of their highest grade Quartz movements. Brought to you from the company that introduced the world to Quartz!

The article linked to goes over more details about the movement and the GS its in. I thought that it was interesting for the reasons you guys have pointed out - high precision in its manufacture, attention to detail, and we see so many cheap quartz that are "floating" inside the case.
