SPB441 - Simply a joy to wear

May 01, 2024,22:20 PM
 

Picked up the Presage Kintaro Hattori LE SPB441 recently and it's been a real pleasure to wear.  Stark white enamel dial, blued hands, 35mm (looks more 36mm in person) pebble-ish round case, slightly domed sapphire crystal, large crown and killer bund strap.  For me, just one of those pieces where any criticism is easily ignored due to how it feels and looks on my wrist.  Happy to add my first Seiko to the collection.

Great watch and dial

Has an old miliary vibe on that strap

I liked this a lot at announcement. Classic presentation on a unique bund.

The smaller size was only issue for me. Looks excellent on you πŸ‘πŸ½πŸ‘πŸ½πŸ‘πŸ½

unusual subdial!

very curious release: would be keen to try it!

Just for reference, my wrist is 6.5". This 35mm case is the smallest I would go plus the bund strap gives it more presence on the wrist.

As you guys know, the sub-dial is a day/night indicator. Some people have commented that there should've been a seconds sub-dial instead and that a day/night is pointless but I think it adds a harmless function and a more visually appealing dial.

Looks good - really like the blue hands πŸ‘

Had to do a double take on subdial though. Cheers JML

I’ve never seen this watch.

It’s beautiful. The breguet numerals are well executed. And the hands are majestic. Well done. Thank you for sharing.
