Wow -- where can I get a look at one of these watches? I just have the
standard watches sold by the nfb store, but they don't keep time very well.
I believe mine is an automatic and not a battery run watch however, which
aren't as accurate.
Do the Seiko watches come in varying colors? such as gold/chrome/2-tone or
other?
Thanx

I have had my current Seiko since 1998 and the first battery ran for over
five years before it stopped.  Great watch, got my first one in 1980 but
that is a long story and I won't tell it here.

 Hi Bud;
I've had one of those watches for five years and never had a bit of trouble
with it.
I changed the battery I think twice.
Did you ever change a battery in one of those watches?
