I kind of like it but I'm not sure about the crescent moon on the left side of the dial.

It's different. I'd have to carry around a photo of the samurai helmet that inspired it so I can explain its reason for being on the dial.

The Ananta is another Seiko I would love to see IRL. Even just one, doesn't matter which model.
Although I'm not crazy about the looks of that moon crescent on the dial, I feel that my opinion might be different if I saw it IRL. Especially knowing the significance behind the design.

Call me crazy, but I like the crescent moon on the side. It gives it something extra, just enough to make someone ask about the design!

Although it looked really strange to me at first, I do feel it will look better in person. Also, for a watch this special (300 pieces) it seems to fit right in. Seiko really has a rich history behind them.
