Hey mate great vid! Congrats again! Seiko fan here and owing the spb147, I always wanted to pick up a Willard, I tried on the green and the blue LE both great but this spb301 is truely the best so far unbelievably dial, you can see how they are slowly gradually showing their craftsmanship (dial like GS), 2 things I wish this spb301 has..1) no lume on 3 clock position. 2) lume color change to blue same as the spb147, not sure why the lume changed color . Great piece mate!
I have a special place in my heart for Seiko fans. It's the brand that started it all for me and one that will be with me for the rest of my life. Ooooo the SPB147 is the one with that lovely chocolatey gilt dial , such a great choice!! Agreed, I was on the same fence as you. This SPB301 finally sent me over the edge to pick up a Willard. Love your suggestions for improvements. Would definitely prefer the off-blue lume on the SPB147 over the lumabrite green on this SPB301. Thanks again for watching!
The shade of the stainless steel on the case and bracelet is due to the diashield anti-scratch coating. My spb143 has the same coating and I agree- I love how it looks- almost titanium like- 😎
Oh man, it was sooo hard for me to choose between the 313 and the 301. The 313 reissue is gorgeous 😍, congrats! This Willard barely nudged it out but I still long for the 313 sometimes... must resist!
seikos are notorious for being a good deal. The 6r35 is a workhorse. the fact it's 6 beats per seconds, means you need to service it 20% less than an 8 tick. probably why the Swiss use 8 ticks...
Thanks for your review. Recently purchase the SPB237, a bit « vintage » vibe Willard, I just love it.. First time I ear some goods critiques about the bracelet. I think I could like it too. Mine was supplied with 2 good nato strap
I just looked up the SPB237 and... Damn! I must say I really like it. That matted gray dial looks sooooo gorgeous. It goes really well with those vintage hour markers. These willards are fantastic on Natos and rubber. Makes an already comfortable watch even more comfy! Congrats on your pick up and thanks for watching!

The Willard, with that dial & the bracelet looks so cool. Great video mate. Just suscribed, to your channel, as well..👍.
Appreciate that Rahul! 🙏 ❤️ You have great taste. I agree, Seiko knocked it out of the park with this one!
Lovely!! Thanks 😊 It look awesome on your wrist
Thank you! 😀
Gorgeous

Truly a beauty... If I didn't have the 151 I would buy this... I went for the 313 slim reissue

@@watchhunt9600 we can always buy them down the line... Haha
@@kikomachine8276 exactly! Lol.
Hilarious I was trying to find a review for the bracelets on my breitling superocean 44 … and this video nailed it and compared directly to seikos.
Awesome! The angled Breitling SO bracelets are great. My only point of criticism is that clasp. Glad to see they're upgrading them on the new models.

The colour of bracelet is due to the DLC coating. Nice.
Nice 👍 content hope u do a state of the collection
The white dial superoen is a killer, not the blue dial.
The combination
Need advice on geting the SPB301 or the SPB333
How is your watch running now
Hi bro when u going to do the next watch review 😊
Pin and collar system is the most secure system ever. The screw system is the worst
Good review nice watch, get some decent lighting
Thanks, will need to work on that.
Is that Willard 44 or 42mm?
Hi. It's a 42mm but sometimes it feels like it wears more like a 40mn due to the short lug to lug dimensions.
Nice watch but I hate the rattle noise of the bracelet 👎🏼
Quick video….16 mins later….
