Nowadays though, the material used by Seiko, aka the people who made this watch, has been developed to perform far better versus scratches, often better than stainless steel. The only other thing to bear in mind is that the numbers and the date window appear a little smaller relative to the face of the watch than they do in the illustration, which might be due to a distortion of the enlarged image. Received the Lorus RXD425L8 Titanium few weeks ago and it's becoming quick one of my favorite watches.I've owned this watch for 18 years, since 2002, and have given it some very rough military treatment, yet it's still totally accurate. Can't comment on how good it is for waterproofness because that's not why I bought it, but I can wear it playing golf, which is one of the main reasons I bought it.

So an excellent overall watch, a true Field Watch, a true Outdoorsman watch and if this had a sapphire with applied indices - with longer minute hand - I'd gladly pay 5x as much for it.Grey titanium round case with cream dial, clear easy-to-read numerals, interesting feature hour, minute and second hands, date function, green fabric with leather inset strap, quartz movement.
