    Is that a Big Bang? I haven't seen registers like that on one before.

            Which would YOU get?

            Seiko 5 Sports automatic (7s36 movement, 43mm case)
            or
            Citizen Eco-Drive (quartz movement, 43mm case)

            They are both around the $150-200 price range and look nice. I already have a Seiko 5 w/ 7s26 and 37mm case (very plain) but these bigger watches with a decent bracelet are what I'm looking for.

                Personally I'd get the Seiko. But I'm a little biased. I have a few Seiko mechanical watches and love them. Citizens are great too. I will say that if you are looking for an absolutely accurate watch, I would go with a quartz watch. 7s36s aren't the most accurate. Accuracy aside, I do prefer mechanical movements, but thats just my personal opinion.

                If you want a fairly accurate Mechanical watch for cheap, I would recommend a 2nd Gen Seiko Monster. I got my 2nd gen Orange Monster on Amazon for $168. It is a great value. Love the bracelet.

                  Fairly sure the Monsters still have a 7s movement in them, As with all 7s (or any Seiko mechanical other than the Grands, really any non chronometer mechanical movement for that matter ) its luck of the draw, some will run +/- a few secs a month others will run +/- a couple of mins or more in a week. My 7s26 runs about +2-5 secs a day, my far more expensive and advanced 6r15c is about 5 mins slow a month

                    If you are looking for a bigger face watch I picked up at Casio Edifice 5276, by no means anything special but is the most accurate watch I have ever had though it is quartz watch and get compliments on it all the time.

                      Just to reiterate ITT, Quartz will always be more accurate than a mechanical if its dead on accuracy you want get a quartz......... just remember they have no soul, Casio makes a great digital watch and a Ecco drive from citizen is hard to beat for maintenance free daily wear.

                        Totally came here expecting a r3vlimited watch. Why hasn't this been done?

                          I always liked this model. Big Bang steel, right? Is it a rep?

                            Because making a new line of watches is really expensive and r3v is cheap as fuck (myself included).

                              Looks like it to me. The registers are incorrect - at least I've never seen them in that configuration.

                              In any event...rocking my Speedmaster today.

                                Yeah it's a rep, gotta love having a dad who lives in China lol. But my uncle has a few real ones and the weight is spot on and materials. The only difference I've found is the registers.
