@@MrLENrok I was able to put a 20mm band on this Seiko, so unless I squeezed it in, I think it’s a 20mm lug. I don’t wear much. I did a quick search to answer your question, and honestly, I have no clue what the difference is. Perhaps the provided reference is the JDM reference? They appear the same; just different references. It’s probably just one is for the international market, whereas the other was JDM.
@@RabbitWatchShop thank you for confirming. I’ve been told the band size is indeed a 20mm. I’m about to purchase one on eBay with a band and want to add a leather band to it myself.
@@MrLENrok no problem. The thing you should know is that it’s a tight fit, because the springbar holes are close to the case. Also be weary that gold plating will come off, especially if worn often. I don’t wear mine much because I want to preserve the plating. When the bezel gives away, I’m just gonna have my watchmaker install a solid gold bezel. You can always find two-tone jubilee bracelet replacements. Just keep the original unique shaped ends and have them replated.
$400-$700? Which markets are you looking at? Across various online platforms (eBay, Etsy, Mercari, etc) I’m seeing it for way less - max $300 to as low as $80 pre-owned. I’m all for pre-owned since the design hasn’t changed in decades. That, and to save a bit of coin too.
I'm not sure what you're looking at, but probably different models. Currently, there's two available. One is being sold for cheap because the dial is custom and the caseback is engraved. The other is starting off on a $200 bid. That's it. And I just seen an all gold tone listed for $700.
@@SaSpursFan yeah, that’s a con. You can find two-tone Seiko jubilee bracelets with clasps that have micro adjusts. Just search for two-tone jubilee Seiko bracelet. And use the end-links that came with the watch

Does the bracelet pull hairs?
I wouldn’t be able to tell you, because I don’t have hair on my arms lol
Yes very slighty
@@user-vp6ej3hp3o you have this watch?
Got this watch and I love it! Dosent pull my hairs. Only down side is that there is no micro adjust so I can’t get a good fit.
