That’s very interesting. Looks hefty is it a 44mm?

I think it's 45mm. I like it more than my Atomic clock Casio because it also automatically adjusts for time zones via GPS. I like that it's always the right time, unlike my Citizen perpetual calendar that knows about leap years and days of the month but doesn't adjust for daylight saving time. It's also much classier, but not cheap.

Editied ^ for more info - it's my one true grab and go always correct despite moving across time zones and never needs a battery watch.

Such an obvious fake.
Look at the blurry dial reprint.
The case is also most certainly polished, no sharp edges anymore

Question: what is the difference between this one and Pongster’s (2 above)? The one I have has the 21 Jewel marking and others do not. Is that based on manufacture origin? I do notice mine has Made in Japan and others do not. Or is it an age thing, or....? Just curious. Enjoying it very much, probably finally found my daily, dont care if I scratch it, watch.

Answer: J series vs K series, origin difference. Yeah, I should’ve just gone to google in the first place instead of posting an easily answered question. But for the next person that wonders maybe they’ll find this.

There is also a common misconception going around with these, stating that the J is better than the K which is false. The only difference is the shipping route and obviously, dial text. I see yours sports the "customary" misaligned chapter ring just like mine does. Is there anybody on this forum with a SKX with a proper chapter ring?
