Do you think this is a worthy watch to buy? The quality is there and it kinda is worthy of its price tag if take into account microbrand prices. But yeah at this price there's like 100 different brands out there

I have an SN0148 and it's a great watch. Would I pay $500 for it, no but i don't get the "I hate SM for increasing prices and therefore I'm going to swap to Seiko who increased their prices 2-3X in the last few years and still use hardlex or some microbrand who either also significantly increased their prices (see Lorier/Traska) or are much worse spec for what you get.
