Sensei Says
The specs, in plain English
The movement
Sellita SW300-1. 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 38 mm it lands in the modern sweet spot, a 48 mm lug-to-lug suits most wrists.
The value
Fairly priced for what it is.
