- Let's talk about Seiko and Miyota movement. They have a lot of similarity, including their price point. But these small details mean massive difference in watchmaking. Let's find out!
I heard unregulated Miyota 8215 is more accurate than NH series
It usually is.
Seiko is a favorite of microbrands for the bi-directional automatic winding and the visible ball bearing of the rotor, that makes it feel (and look, in a displayback) more "high-end". But, as they come out of the factory, the 8215 is a better movement in every other respect.
You didn't even address the elephant in the room. Seiko 6R movements in their $1K watches keep crappy time. A veritable lottery of whether they are going to gain +/-15 seconds 'a day'....not a week or a month.They are unregulated. Miyota movements all keep better time.
So you're expecting seiko full mechanical movement to go +/- 15 seconds "a month"? LoL. Not even a rolex going to get that acurate.
My laco worked miyota keeps +2 seconds a day … very accurate.
Seiko 6r bad.
@DestroyTheMindless if they spent time to regulate their watches, they would be within 5sec a day. Steeldive regulates the NH35 to around 2sec a day. It's completely doable, but seiko doesn't want to spend the time to do that.
hello I am a beginner. I'm interested in an 8n24 but I can't find anything about it! Is it compatible with NH35 boxes? where to find adapter ring?
We do have watch kits with 8N24 in our store, like this Mosel here: shop.diywatch.club/collections/watchmaking-kit-skeleton-watch/products/copy-of-pvd-skeleton-vintage-dress-watch-kit-miyota-citizen-8n24-anthracite-movement-mosel-series
Usually the watch case is designed specifically for a certain movement. So watches with 8N24 are usually not compatible with NH35. And adapter rings for movements aren't really a commonly seen thing.
Citizen Eco-Drive.
battery powered and electric watches are shit .automatics and mechanicals are the best .everything quartz 😂sucks
@@nicholasdeaconu6881 Like comparing a horse drawn carriage to a Lexus (Eco-Drive) 😆??
@@nielwilliams4687I agree with your analogy, but I would never compare automatic to digital movement. They are for completely different functions. Plus I would never buy another citizen anything. I bought a $250 ecodrive watch like 6 years ago. It would not keep correct time. I thought I was setting the time improperly. I was not. When I tried to return it a Citizen rep reaching out to troubleshoot the problem, when he told me to do the exact same thing as the manual I told him I had already done that and wanted a refund. He never responded. I never got a refund.
@@nicholasdeaconu6881watch snob here😅 quartz are still great watches. Get off your high horse. You can’t even use grammar correctly😅
The horse has a soul 🤪
Seiko movement is better. But exterior quality is better in citizen watches than seiko
I currently have a Seiko 7s26 powered watch and looking into a Miyota powered one.
I’m sorry, not an expert- am I the only one that finds comparing skeleton movement to an open hearth pretty mismatched?😅
They're both skeleton movement. Open heart seiko are NH38 or NH39.
LIGE , MACHINE????
indeed very obvious 4r35 is superior than 8220
