My first Seiko post - incoming
Thanks to fellow Purist Ambos, I have finally got my Seiko Presage 60th Anniversary Chronograph with white enamel dial and I am very pleased with it. Took out my camera & lights immediately and here are what I shot.
It's a very well crafted piece . After looking at Thevenin's and Ken's post and beautiful
pictures,..the only question remains, Should I also get the Urushi
version? 
best regards,

Huge admirer of Seiko, especially GS, Ananta, and Credor..

I'm not an expert
BUT I think it is EXTREMELY difficult to apply it over an edge/ rim and to make it stick on a vertical surface... Expert input needed please! Usually, the Swiss/German luxury brands enamel dial have mostly NO cut outs in the dial, guess to purposely avoid...
Thanks PJS and Ambos for comments,
My guess too, that for the cut out of the date aperture, it is unavoidable to have the dark markings. But I think some other samples will have have less dark marks than this. Some more. Keen to hear from expert/owners and to see some pictures of other sam...
Hand-made dials vary, of course
BTW - welcome with your new Seiko Presage. Here are an assortment of images for your inspection, from my pair of white and black dial watches. It's HARD to get the black dial without reflections, even in a little home-made light tent with a towel over my ...

Thank you for your kinds words and for sharing your photos. Wear them in the best of health my friend. I agree, hand finished dial varies in condition. I did some research - I googled "seiko presage enamel" and saw the samples given to reviewers like Mono...
