I think that Eyal Lalo is VERY fond of SII's NH25A, but this movement leaves me "high, but dry!" ...

... FYI, it won't hack or hand wind, but does appear to be 'high-quality!'​

Now, although E.L. 'extols the virtues' of these new SII Movements, ...

... they're REALLY made by a 'subsidiary' of Seiko's located in China (Hong Kong); i.e., ...​

... Time Module Inc or TMI at www.timemodule.com​

Anyway, IMHO, TMI is 'poised' to fill in the 'gap' that Mssrs. Hayek, 'et al', seem 'hell-bent' to create! ... :madd ...

... and - AND! - movements like their new NE-15 will simply 'blow the competition' away ...​

(NB: Ad states 'Made In Japan', but, IMHO, the 'issue in doubt!' ... )[/align]______________________________________

Regardless, I, for one, certainly DO have some concerns about their model selection criteria! ... :whatever: :% ...

Good info..thanks....I have a Pro Diver with one of these movements and it is nice....I can live without the hack & wind in a watch in this price range.

I still own a PD with this movement and I just keep it on the winder. It's the most accurate automatic in my collection. It stays right on with the Atomic clock. I only paid $67 for it. I have watches over a grand that can't do that.

I have an "I force" with that movement; one of the first with that movement, when they openly said it was a Seiko movement with no capability of manual winding, but winded both ways on your wrist. Mine does not keep good time, but I wear it periodically because I like the Rose Gold look.
