I've been eyeing up this 'flightmaster' for many months and then finally pulled the trigger and I'm very glad I did. It's one of the few quartz watches highly respected and sought after by watch geeks like me and indeed a review by a popular blogger led me to fall for this model. It's surprising that seiko have managed to give this watch a 200m water resistance rating at this pricepoint. The screw down crown and Stopwatch timers will no doubt have helped toward this. For those that care and are capable (not me), this watch can calculate all sorts of measurements such as mpg/ speed etc utilising the bidirectional bezel. This watch takes design cues from the Breitling navitimer. So it is a busy dial but that shouldn't put you off. The lume is fantastic. In the flesh the quality is exceptional for the pricepoint and will get you a lot of compliments. In particular the online pictures do not do the gorgeous 2 tone bracelet any justice. There's no point commenting on the accuracy as you will take that for granted with this tried and tested seiko quartz movement. I own a few of the seiko classics including the skx and the orange monster so I appreciate quality and I make no hesitation in recommending this beauty. Please note that this is the sought after 'flighty' with the model number sna411. Other adverts are labeling some similar watches but different models as flightmasters but you will be disappointed if your after the future iconic collectors 'flighty'. Also please note that this is not a large watch. I'm very pleased Seiko haven't followed the trend of upsizing their watches to the current grotesque size of so called designer watches. This keeps this watch looking classy. The stats are all available online but please at the same time don't think it is too small as it certainly sits nice and comfortable on my medium sized wrists.

Very good value quartz chronograph watch, packed full of features. Being Seiko it is also very accurate and reliable. Perhaps three things to be aware of; the dial is so packed with information that you need an eye loupe to use the slide-rule bezel (unless you have exceptional eyesight!), the tachymeter scale is disjointed due to being positioned between the hour index marks and the alarm is very faint (unless you have exceptional hearing!). But these three small niggles shouldn't detract from what is a superb chronograph watch.

Initially I wasn't sure how I felt about this watch as it wasn't the style I usually go for but within a week I'm blown away. Lots of compliments from strangers too which I've never had even when wearing watches that cost 10x what I paid for this (300gbp). Alarm and GMT feature are great and screw down crown/200m water resistance are incredible bonuses at this level of cost. Looks great on a £10 nato strap too so am saving the steel bracelet. You won't be disappointed in this watch. I broke my no quartz rule for it and love the watch.

Really high quality Seiko watch. Pros: - Chronograph up to 1h - Alarm - Date - Sliding rule bezel - 200m waterproof - Good readabilty of the chronograph due to the yellow hands - Good lume Cons: - Chronograph only up to 1h - Due to the busy dial it isn't as readable as many other watches - The non - chrono dials are a bit harder to read due to the chrome hands - Setting the alarm is a bit complicated, so not something you'd like to use often
