This watch is nearly perfect. Light weight titanium construction, solar-powered, radio syncs with the atomic clock for perfect precision. Size is moderate at 38mm. The dial is beautiful. In low light the sunburst pattern swirls around the dial, but in bright sunlight it looks pure blue, and even leans toward a shade of brown (seeing the solar panels under the translucent dial?). As always, Seiko's hands and applied indices are polished beautifully and sparkle like gems. I also have the same watch with black (purple?) teak wood patterned dial and gold indices... and it is even better! Love them both. Blue for jeans, gold for Sundays.
