Description

The Seiko SNA411, nick name “Flighty”. This popular watch has been made for years, but production was stopped for a few years. Lucky enough there has been a production-run in 2020 and I  managed to get a few pieces to Europe. So with a reasonably full battery. This watch has the reliable 7T62 quartz inside, it has an alarm OR a second time zone. The alarm “looks” at the time in the sub dial, I will set the watch correct for European time (Amsterdam, GMT+1).

The single domed and very thick glass is something you notice right away. Some people like it, some people don’t. The single dome makes the image of the dial appear distorted, especially when you look at it from an angle. I have flat (modest blue AR) and double domed (clear AR) sapphire for this watch, both do not give a distorted image of the dial, and both are very resitant against scratches.

Here is a review on Youtube from a Flighty-lover.

The lug width is 21mm! If you consider a leather strap, I suggest the leather strap from the Seiko SRW037p2 (black with white stitches). The price (here) is 40 euro. If you want one, mention it in the comment of the order. I will add it, with a separate invoice. The push pins are placed tight to the watch case, it is a hard watch to put a nato on, but a 1.2mm thick nato is doable.
