Sensei Says
The specs, in plain English
The movement
Sellita SW200-1. An upper-tier movement: tighter regulation, better materials and a longer power reserve. You feel the quality in the winding and the rate.
On the wrist
At 43 mm it wears boldly, a 47 mm lug-to-lug suits most wrists.
The value
You're paying for quality, and it shows.
