> there's something about Seiko designs that just doesn't do it for me

Totally agree. When it comes to solar-radio the best looking I've found is this, which I bought:

Junghans released a solar-radio version of their Max Bill:

... but apparently the hands aren't self-correcting like the Seikos and Citizens and that would bug me way too much because they wouldn't line up perfectly with the markers.

> I still think you get more for your $7,500 from a luxury mechanical watch

I used to agree and then my mind changes; can't say exactly why but I sold my 2 Rolexes and haven't wanted a mech. since.

Anyhow, all my teasing of mech. fans aside, it's all frivolous fun!
