but I had recently picked up a Seiko X (similar priced) diver that kept terrible time... losing/gaining 20 sec's a day... (which btw is within specs which makes it worse!) even as much as I loved the watch design, size, comfort, lume, and everything... it gave me pause about lower priced -cool as hell' watches that were not chronometres... you are taking a big chance on these 'cool as hell' watches that may keep terrible time... so I didn't bite... I love DOXA... (cool as hell) but gotta know more owners who let me know how time keeping goes... much love!!
