Beautiful Watch (despite Amazon's photo)!
By P. Kowalsky
The Seiko Coutura SNL036 is a gorgeous watch for a semi-complicated guy like me (heh!). With it's sophisticated looks and beautiful stainless finish with subtle gold accents, this watch is easily the nicest watch I've ever had. The instructions are comprehensive, and leaves nothing to the imagination as far as button / crown operation goes. The back of the watch is pretty cool to look at as well with it's see-through window. I wish the face had a light for low/no-light situations, but that's pretty minor issue for me. Also, Seiko gives you plenty of links in the band to take out for those of you with uber-thick wrists. Heck, I could have worn mine around my ankle when I took it out of the packaging! A short trip to the local jeweler quickly resolved that.Amazon's photo here is pretty terrible, and does not do this watch proper justice. Check out the Seiko USA website (or the other sellers listings here) for a proper rendition of this sharp-looking timepiece.Amazon had the best overall deal, and I got mine the next day. With the return policy, you cannot go wrong: if you don't like it, Amazon will let you return it within 30 days for a full refund. I've never had an issue with an Amazon purchase that I could not satisfactorily resolve. With a deal like that, what do you really have to lose?Mine's a keeper -- I'm definitely NOT returning it, unless of course a problem develops (highly doubtful with a high-end Seiko like this). Besides, I've already gotten several compliments on it and my wife really likes it too. Buy it!

Elegance and Style
By John J. Tucker
ProsI spent some time looking for a watch that I like. The watch is not only visually pleasing the crystal being made of Sapphire it's scratch resistant. I also liked the kinetic feature which never requires a battery change. My last Seiko operated on batteries and I didn't know that the battery had to be changed in the factory and then vacuumed sealed. Going to a Mall Kiosk for a battery change ruined the watch and it never ran right again. With the kinetic feature this is no longer an issue.Cons:The dial that actually tells you the time is quite small compared to the face of the watch. The other thing is that the picture shows a watch face that looks more green than it actually is.Comparisons:I had debated paying an extra $100 or so for the next upgrade of the watch with the perpetual calendar feature that remembers the date and time up to 4 years of inactivity, however I didn't like the look of the watches.
