Yeah I loved the Snoeflake when I first got it. But Seiko killed it for me by just making SO MANY limited release dials with all those silly names. Whit Birch, Cherry Blossom, Green Birch, Diet Birch. It just got silly and I can’t take the Heritage line seriously anymore. The snowflake was the OG “cool dial” heritage spring drive. No longer.
The Santos, however, was the first ever wristwatch. Timeless yet still kind of edgy. For me it was a must-have.

Yeah it’s a thing in Japan to have several limited editions. Doesn’t take away from the OG snowflake for me, but that’s personal.
