Yeah I like the IWC 7 days power reserve too, but the price is wayyy too much for me to afford.
Actually after looking at Seiko High Beat SBGH001, I think you really can't complain about that watch. top end movement, nice finish, curved anti reflective sapphire, 40mm in size (unlike usual Seiko which is around 38mm). Blued second hand, display back, etc... The price is more affordable too.

What do you guys think of this one? It keeps the major features from my current watch (atomic sync, solar power, tilt-to-light) but looks much nicer. Anything else I should look at in atomic watches?

Edit: I ended up buying it at a local store and I'm very happy with it so far. It has an amber LED and a ring diffuser around the outside of the watch face for lighting which actually looks quite nice.



What a coincidence, I just saw this at Kohl's today. Nice looking for a chrono.

Would you pay US$600 for an Eco Drive (Alterna) that has: perpetual calendar, anti reflective sapphire, titanium bracelet, and look nice?
I am thinking not to have too many automatics especially not so expensive ones because once they require service, it might not be worthwhile to do so (eg. paying $200-300 for a $400-500 watch). Do you think Ecodrive watches can last a long time?

There was a 40+% off sale on watches so my dad picked me up a Seiko Alarm Chronograph SNAA02:

I am pretty happy with it and it is definitely the nicest watch I have ever owned.
