[quote="phantom150"]anyone can tell me the actual box they give for this ltd ed blue sardine??



from the sg fb page, seems its a white seiko superior limited edition outer box, inner blue white seiko superior limited edition box.



anybody didnt get this, got something else or the normal seiko box??

both my sardine and monster come with the box u mentioned[/quote]

Reason i asked, i got a normal white seiko inner/outer box, when i got my limited blue monster of 500 with bracelet at mustafa,



Got home feeling happy, but i saw the boxes posted, a bit sainzzz,



Went back mustafa, showed the staff the pic of the limited edition box,

he looked in both seiko counters, none, referred me to the watch department supervisor, took my details n said will check with day shift counterpart.



day shift ppl called me mid afternoon, says they spoke to agent ppl, i assume TS ppl , say theirs comes with normal box, explains could be for internet purchases or pricier shops that sells higher price..... crap shit, i told him, nvm, u cant help anyway, i take it up with TS.



concurrently while i was waiting for mustafa's reply, i email TS to confirm what boxes it should come with, 1st reply from a lady says its the limited edition white outer box, with blue limited edition inner box.



With the reply i had from mustafa, i reply to the TS lady, saying my incident with mustafa, and was disappointed, blah blah, lamenting why should i pay for a TS set if they give normal boxes, while some get limited edition boxes.



the weekend went away and i got replied from the lady to refer me to the sales manager.

MANAGER was polite and apologetic, says due to some arrangement btw TS and mustafa, boxes was not sent on time. will keep a box for me but i need to pick up at kallang ave, arrangements will be made by the lady.



well at least its a outcome i was glad of. and improved upon the previous experience i had with them in orchard.



Ppl who bought from mustafa or anyone else selling the TS sets, didnt get their limited box, can email TS, btw, manager says Usually all limited edition should come with special box( his exact words).



Ps for the lengthy post

Hi guys,



My 1st post here as I got my 1st ever seiko, a blue sardine while on holiday at Taiwan.



I just have a quick question, in the manual, it's stated that this 453k caliber is capable of manual winding at position 1 (normal position) of the crown. I've tried but feel that there is now way of winding it in its usual position.



Ill be glad if anyone has an answer to my newbie question.



Thanks :D

the crown is a screw-down type for sardine, after unscrewing it you should be able to turn it clockwise to wind it.

Hi thanks bro gasmancc.



So after the crown is winded down. I just have to wind it clock wise. But does it have an end to how much it can wind like my other hand winding watches. E.g my other watch has a maximum 40 wind before I cant wind it anymore.

There is no end to how much I can wind AFAIK. I usually wind my watch about 30 winds to charge up from zero power reserve.

Those are hand wind watch I believe, for auto there is no limit of winding

For auto, when you reach the maximum, it will just slip. So u can wind on and on and on. Typically, it is advisable to just give it 10 turns to kick start the PR and let it be charged up as you moved.
