    The original is so beautiful. Easily reminds me of Omega Constellation and/or Sea Master of the same era.

    Watching this due to your metronome video blowing up, keep up the good work!

      That's awesome, thank you! There's good and bad, I kind of miss being able to upload anything without worrying about it. Now I have a standard to live up to.

    Really love the Kuroshio, but really wish it had a sapphire crystal for everyday wear. Please review the Corso you were sporting, would love to see a proper review of that beauty.

    In my opinion, the Citizen of this era are more beautiful and more interesting than Seiko. So many Seiko of the era all look the "same". The script and the nomenclature on the Citizen dials really make it feel more "period". Seiko is more timeless. But I want vintage in my vintage, not something that looks like it could be sold today.

      The reissues are all generally in the $300 to $400 range. They were less at lunch but they aren't made any more so that's what they run for.
      I think at that price you are buying them for the uniqueness and not feature set.
