SRP773J1 question re: date wheel in Japanese
So........The Japanese version of the SRP773J1 has come to my attention (thank you, Springer (John)!).
To what does the "V" refer?? |

Day of the week. Friday, I think. Most Seiko watches come with two day-language options, or one language plus Romans.

Depending on which is chosen, the wheel will jump to the next day in the chosen language. In other words, it skips the intermediary position. The day wheel will be printed like so: Sunday “Sunday” Monday “Monday” ... etc |
