hannover_dk Skrev:Very well worth reading
thanks
Citat:Thank you jhon.But there is room for improvement.I could have gone more into detail but i felt that others on the net had done this better than i could.I am not a watchmaker and for me to go into detail on a caliber well i would just be repeating the words i have read by people better qualified than myself.I just tried to do something a little bit different.I will be better next time

Flot review Willy. Seiko kan virkelig noget de ikke formår i Schweiz. Specielt når det kommer til at producere flotte ure til fair priser. Her kan japanerne noget mht. produktivitet og produktionsoptimering, hvor de schweiziske firmaer slet ikke kan være med. Seikos uheld er så bare at 95 % af forbrugerne forbinder pris og kvalitet, samtidig med at de ikke kan vurdere et urs kvalitet. Det bevirker så at de automatisk forventer at de schweiziske ure er bedre og finere end de japanske bare fordi de er dyrere

jacob jensen Skrev:Spændende læsning willy et godt heads up indlæg
kan det vinde seriøs armtid over dit Deep Sea
Citat:The Deep Sea is a fantastic watch in many ways.I would not compare it with the Seiko Marinemaster.They are two completly different types of watch.I have sold my DS.Because as i said in my piece it is just a very expensive watch that i could not relax with.
I have nothing negative to say about any Rolex i just think it is matter about what you are going to use it for.That is the point,and that i think is where a watch like the Seiko can fill a hole left by many watch brands.And would i buy a Rolex again? Yes of course i love them. Willy

willy Skrev:The Seiko is maybe a little more in house than Rolex they even make their own oil
Rolex makes their own oil too, and done for years
willy Skrev:The crown on this watch is in my opinion not as well made as the Rolex.But it works and Seiko have used it for years.Agree, this is probably the only thing that Seiko should improve. (sapphire would too, in my opinion)
willy Skrev:.It cannot really be compaired to anything in the market today when you look at the price and quality of this watch it stands alone.True, and this is even in-house.
Re: Seiko Marinemaster .V. Rolex - willy - 29-01-2011
Len Skrev:Very interesting to read your review Willy. You have clearly used some time both writing this review, and to read about Seiko before you bought your Seiko..
Citat:Thank you Len.I tried not to repeat everything i had read.I think many do that on the net.I think it is important to say what you think about a watch and you do not have to be a expert to do that.When i read all the reviews of different watches i learn something from them all.After all a review is just one man or womans meaning nothing more.

Re-reading it - and not often I care to - I am even more impressed - with the review in its fairness - and with the Seiko - bucker - that I am not into new watches - I think the conclusion that it is VERY hard to find better value for money in that watch is absolutely correct

Citat:Hi magnum.Rolex still buy certain parts out of house Seiko do not.But i think we are nit picking here <!-- s:lol: --><img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/icon_lol.gif" alt=":lol:" title="Laughing" /><!-- s:lol: --> They are both of course maybe the most inhouse you can get along side Citizen.I am not sure about the sapphire.I am not a expert but Seiko have said they use mineral because it cannot shatter.But i have heard that seiko are using sapphire on some divers now.But is this just catering to the public taste over the reliabilty of the watch in extreme situations?I hope not.I will wait until my glass is well scrached and then maybe put a sapphire in it.I am not a diver

Re: Seiko Marinemaster .V. Rolex - alsendk - 29-01-2011
Hello Willy, and thank you so much for your informative and enriching article about these two watches. Neither am I a watchmaker, or an expert in any way, when it comes to details about watches, calipres etc. I just love watches, how they look, and the histories, connected to each watch brand.
I am not quite aware if you are capable of understanding written danish, so I am giving my school english a try here, in hope not to offend you in any way.
Greetings
Allan
