Seiko 5 SNK543 under the microscope

Today we take a closer look at the Seiko 5 SNK543
This watch catches the eye at first glance with its playful green dial, which is dotted with Seika 5 logos. These logos only stand out in certain lighting conditions. The movement is the most basic piece from Seiko with no hacking or manual winding options. The case is simple and really small by modern standards, and in the position of the glass we find the classic Hardlex, which, however, has not resisted scratches. The case is simple and quite tall, which is the toll of the transparent caseback. This watch sold for literally a few dollars a few years ago and managed to welcome many a collector into the world of mechanical watchmaking. Well, here's what we find under the microscope.
The hands and dial printing are perfectly fine for me, as is the printing of the date wheel. Unfortunately, the playful dial itself is full of scratches, dust, and even remnants of "something" by the logo itself. The mess on the dial, however, is a classic feature of even much more expensive Seiko watches. The indices are surprisingly complex in shape, however the application of the lume layer is truly awful. The cut of the indices is also far from regular.
Overall, and considering the price, I find the details still passable, however the execution of the indices and the utter mess on the dial is the worst I've seen so far.
As always, excuse the quality of the shots, which were taken with a kid's microscope. At the same time, keep in mind that due to the lighting and extreme magnification, even those flaws that are otherwise hidden to the observer's eye will stand out.
