Jeff MooreThe eminently practical Seiko Astron #SBXD009!
There's little not to like about a GPS-synchronized watch in a tasteful size and shape and in titanium, with a nice ceramic bezel. The only thing I fret about with this one is the potential for the black coating to scratch off the base titanium bits, but so far 🤞that hasn't been an issue.
I have to say that I like this generation of 3X22 Astron better than the most recent I've seen, where they figured out how to abandon the ceramic bezel and presumably still get decent satellite reception. I really like the addition of the ceramic part's subtle variation in tone and finish — and of course the extra-good scratch resistance.
See also the #SBXD003 (maybe posted here soon) for a rounder sibling of this in steel and blue.
