Lovely movement in the LUCH, but I'm not much for bright colours and I'd rather look down at the Seiko on my wrist; plus I'm very much a bracelet kind of guy, so the Seiko gets my vote.
Some people have opinions - The rest of us have taste.

I love a good 2209 - one of my favorite Russian movements, but I would actually wear that Seiko.
Too many watches, not enough wrists.

Another difficult one, but I'm with the consensus I'm afraid, usually I'm a bit sniffy about seiko fives, but this one just looks absolutely lovely. As I said before, it's got that style nailed and I'd wear it with a grin. I do actually feel a bit guilty and shallow not to be giving a vote to the Luch though as that's a near perfect example of a rarer, more interesting yet less appreciated, watch.

Funkiness and wearability - Seiko.
By the way, my appreciation to ismy and all who participate in this contest. It's a sociable feature of the forum and it puts some fascinating watches in the spotlight.

love me a 2209 but not sure on the dial colour and do like me a fighter and that seiko has had to do some fighting to get here so think I will go with the underdog and go seiko
