Thank you for sharing. I lost my dad to Covid early June, one week later my daughter was born. To comemorate life this way, remembering moments and gone people looking a watch, this is so me right now. My dad left an vintage Omega Seamaster TV with day complication, it's not working, and I'll leave it that way, so I can always remember the way he also did not fix it, as a part of my life is not working properly when he left this world so soon. I was not much a watch guy, now I'm into it, just to remember time is precious, and I should keep track on it.
There has just been a major change in my life and that is why I was looking for something special - thank you for this video. To me, the open heart represents my illness and my openness about it - the entire dial is smooth, but there is that one hole that really shows what it truly is, no hiding or pretending. Sorry for your loss, I am glad you had such a strong connection with your father.
I did not know your father, but I'm sure he would have absolutely loved the Presage open heart. It is a beautiful time piece at any cost. My condolences to you, and your family, and thank you for the excellent review, and equally excellent watch story.
A very fitting tribute both to the Man and the watch. I have a Cocktail Time Skydiving dial which my wife bought me for my 50th birthday. They are beautiful time pieces.
My grandfather taught me what a watch means.....he always had Seiko and citizen , so I had all of his 70-90s seikos refurbished......and I said that to say this....I bought his house....and I ended up meeting the love of my life and having to let it go, because I'm staying in Italy now, so the profit I got on his house I bought a speedy, not a watch I can normally afford but I put it on my wrist as a tribute ......also my brother , gave me an skx that he served in (I'm AF) but he SERVED.....and I just got his skx back from servicing...finally I bought my grandfather a beautiful white and blue citizen and had it engraved..."hold on to this for me" ...he passed away....but I videotaped me giving it to him and the moments of the unboxing that I will cherish forever ......bottom line .......I agree about buying watches for someone that you love.....watches....they're simply timeless.....
Beautiful, you captured the bond between the father to the son and embodied it into a stunning and elegant timeless timepiece Thank you so much for sharing this most beautiful story in your life ❤️
This was a great review and helped me to decide to go for this model over a few other Seiko's I was considering. RIP to your dad, you seem like a lovely guy and I'm sure he'd be hella proud of you!
very beautifull watch! the watch looks more expensive than some overhyped diver watches that look cheap. it looks sophisticated and elegant and you did a great job picking that one out. its gorgeous! i also own a Seiko mine is called: " Sakura by Night"
I thank you for such a great review and in turn for sharing a little bit of humanity with me. New to your channel but found this video after purchasing an open heart for myself after starting a dream job in the same week as bringing our second daughter into the world with my wife. Keep on ticking brother
This is a wonderful video and review and personal. Good for you my friend to get this watch. As a Canadian I’m looking to buy the watch and was looking for a review and glad I found your video. Looks beautiful and seiko makes amazing movement. For me it’s omega that my father got while in the army and happy to say that the watch is with my brother.
Hi Maurice, Your insights on watches are truly enlightening! I’m from India and occasionally visit Japan for business. Could you recommend a buying guide for Seiko watches? Also, what deals are available for someone like me? I have a small question: where can I buy the ‘Presage Automatic Watch - SSA405J1’? Love from India 🇮🇳
Enjoyed your video. The first watch I purchased was a Citzen Fiore AW1690-51E. Purchased it as statement piece for my life as I just graduated from high school. I personally viewed that transition as me entering a different chapter in my life. Anyway I will keep it short. I do like the watch shown in the video but I would change the band for a different colour band or a bracelet.
I can totally relate to your story. I purchased a Seiko SARX033 as my late Dad loved Seiko. I’m thinking about getting a Grand Seiko to replace it but in two minds. Thoughts would be greatly appreciated.

RIP to your father. I. Sure he was a class act, to raise such an upstanding young man.
I am perpetually trying to get my life organized. I also wear watches because I love the precision of a watch. Sorry to hear about your father.
What a beautiful timepiece. Thank you for sharing your father’s story, a very fitting memorial piece.
Great story, I'm glad you found a watch that has such a meaningful representation for you. Wear it with pride!

Love this video. Stumbled upon it while looking into a Seiko presage as a retirement gift for my dad. Thanks for the details!
Sorry about your father but I appreciate the story and meaning, you did well picking the watch.

A beautiful story and a beautiful watch! I always like a watch with a story behind! Well done.

I am going to present this watch to my dad on his birthday tomorrow. Mine has a metal bracelet.
Sorry for your loss, really good video, you seem like a good guy.
Whats the different between this one and the SARY155?

That was beautiful, thank you for sharing.

If possble, if it couldn't be change I am also oka with the blue band.
Beautiful my man
Beautiful review thanks for sharing from Australia 🇦🇺
I love the cocktail time watches I have 2
How is your routine when maitaining your automatic watches? What you do by yourself and what do you use services from third parties?
God rest you father’s soul ✊🏼
excellent review. thank you
The picture at the end? Is that real? Did you find that after you found the watch? What a beautiful story!
I can totally relate to your story. I purchased a Seiko SARX033 as my late Dad loved Seiko. I’m thinking about getting a Grand Seiko to replace it but in two minds. Thoughts would be greatly appreciated.
Great video, thanks.
Nice Balisong
The glass on this watch pops out so It will scratch unlike your other seiko
