How does it wear? A bit heavy

Mostly because of the 170g weight, which feels to be at the top with bezel and crystal. It's about 2mm larger in diameter than the U-N pictured below. Although they weigh the same, and are both under 15mm, the U-N feels bulkier on my wrist. The Seiko is smooth and nicely curved on the back which fits into my wrist.

Seiko has made a number of futuristic looking chronographs with this case. This one is comparatively classic, but I love the way the functions are separated. The reported diameter is a very large 45 mm, but how does it wear?

Seiko replicate the old style font from their 1964 first chronograph for all the dial text on this watch? Nice anniversary piece you have here Mike.
