That shouldn’t be used as a slight, as Seiko & Grand Seiko are an incredible watchmaker & show up some of the Swiss classics.
I do hate how snobbery infects people’s opinions, watches from all walks of life are incredible in 2018 and the complications and technology that power them would stun people from 20 years ago, let alone 50.
I’m sure there’s an R&D team who’ve tried a similar technology at Rolex and favoured against it. As someone else said, do we know how reliable these Spring Drive movements are, over 5-10 years?
