SPB149 is a beauty! I really love everything about this model, I have an SPB147 myself but the accuracy is not the best. It is running +30s per day. I'm not sure how the 6R55 will perform but the new dial design is messy with the 3 days text. I'm glad I still have my 147 without the 3 o'clock lume pip. I will probably send it to Seiko for servicing. I was quoted like $80 for full service. That's not a bad price.
Shame on the accuracy. I have the 213 and it runs odd in the watch box but recently I wore it 10 days straight at it gained only 2 seconds over that whole period (crown side at night).
For goodness sake’s do not sell the 147 Felix, you will regret it for sure. I’ve got and had a lot of much more expensive watches but the 147 is special I also absolutely love my 153 Willard and I wear my 147 and 153 more than any of my other watches the 149 is a nice watch and I almost bought one but after looking at both of them it was obvious to me that the 147 was the much nicer watch.
Beautiful!! Well done!
Thank you!

Couldn't agree more! The 147 , 143, 149 will be very collectible in the long term! I am not a fan of the new release
Very nice!!!
Thanks mate
Is there a mark on the 9 minute mark on the bezel or were you just dribbling over it!
Haha must be me lol

Mate I can’t argue with you, after owning the 149, I like the 147 even more
