Seiko Brightz SAGV005 - Yes or no?
Greetings everyone, new member here I'm buying a new watch soon, and one of the top candidates is Seiko Brightz Kinetic Perpetual SVG005. I don't know anything about watches, mechanisms etc., all i know is that this is the kind of watch i've always wanted. So, before i shell out a lot of money, i'd like to hear some of your thoughts about this watch, and should i buy it or not? I'm a one watch man, and i'd like a watch that'll last me a lifetime.What's it like compared to SNP003? Is it worth the double price or should i get SNP003?Also, i need a little clarification - what exactly is the difference between SNP003, SNP003P and SNP003P1?Thanks!
