For the Ricoh fans out there, the Lightning Bolt arrived, the other Ricoh version is still waiting to be shipped. It's not running currently so will investigate but here are a couple of better pictures of it You got the Bolt watch- I was wondering if there was some fancy design on the back, but nope. I still have an old BOLT hat- Probably from late 70's early 80s..? Misaligned Bolt patch and all, probably why I didn't wear it much. Seiko must have hired the old Lightning Bolt QC team...? Cool hat! 😎

twhp101What's the caliber number? If it's 580, you did very well! It's a nice and solid movement.

I popped the back and it has a 640 7 jewel movement. The model numbers start 643 so that tallies. The new arrival is running which is good, and has quite the battery change record! (Excuse the sideways photo).
