Pics of bi-lingual Seiko.

The watch is a bargain, absolute 10 in the value department. Corse movement and nothing special finish. Feels OK on the wrist provided you change the POS rubber strap. The reason I had bought the watch was

A- First Bi lingual date watch I ever saw.
B- I needed a watch for diving-hiking-camping and any other rough situations.
C- it was a 130 USD from the AD.

Main advantages:
1-Price.
2- Built like a tank. This one has been banged, submerged, and worse and it still looks good.
3- Price.
4- With a nice band can look decent enough for everyday wear.
5-Price.
6- After wearing it for a day and straping on a Ling, Rolex, Omega etc you remember why those watches cost so much.
7- Price.
8-Value.
9- Did I mension it was CHEAP!
10- Sweep movement is pretty good, much better than its price would indicate.

You usually get what you pay for, with this watch you get WAY more. If you thought about it just get it for beating around.

This particular issue has the option of displaying the date in both English and Arabic. Pretty cool!
