Seiko Ananta Spring Drive Titanium Chronograph GMT Limited Edition Watch
2010 sees three new Seiko Ananta watch models. The fanciest and most exclusive of which is this great looking limited edition Spring Dive model in titanium. Functionally, it has the same Seiko in-house made Spring Drive 5R86 movement as last years Ananta Spring Drive Chrono GMT model - but this new version is in a 46mm wide titanium case with gold toned hour markers and hands. It is limited to just 150 pieces world wide.Titanium offers a new look and feel for Ananta. The weight of the watch is very light. Amazingly so actually. While the steel Ananta watches aren't exactly heavy given their size, the titanium case and bracelet feel like the steel model would if it was on the moon. Of course the color is a bit different and so is the finish on the case. Steel Seiko Ananta watches have Seiko's beloved "blade polishing." This high-grade polish doesn't exactly work the same on titanium, but at the same time, Seiko polished titanium very well. I recall when titanium was first used on watche

Seiko Ananta - A Review
After spending some quality time with these superb Seiko Ananta timepieces I’m left with the over-riding feeling that Seiko have been a victim of their own success. Allow me to explain: There are literally thousands of watch brands currently in business around the world. These range from the horological hand crafted master pieces from such luminaries as Messieurs Greubel and Forsey to the throw away market fodder watches from which you’ll get change from a fiver. However, to the non-initiated there are only a few brands that everybody has heard of. Rolex is the immediate example that springs to mind but also most people will probably have heard of Seiko. In most regions this is because of their high quality quartz watches, which they produce over 3,000,000 per year. Therefore, getting back to my opening line, Seiko are mostly recognised for their quartz movement watches and are not known for their high end mechanical masterpieces. Seiko do, in fact, produce about 10,000 mec

15400 on skinny wrist
I've been deciding to add an AP to my collection and currently leaning towards the 15400.

So I just wanted to see some pictures of the 15400 on skinny wrists before I make my final decision. Let's see those skinny wrists!
