Kwt 11 Posted July 13, 2015 (edited) I was looking at a cheap Seiko from my dad and found this on creationwatches.com. Came with no frills box, warranty book. Didn't come with even a delivery note lol. Serious bargain for an automatic 5 sports watch with 23J and 100metre water resistant. Has a nice lume and solid rotating clicky bezel. Has a see through case back. Tells the month which is a bonus. Feels real nice in the hand and nice looking being modeled completely after a Submariner. This little beauty cost me £95 including free postage to the UK. Sure my dad will love it. Edited July 14, 2015 by Kwt Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Klink 0 Posted July 13, 2015 Congratulations! That is a beauty for sure. Has your dad seen it yet, and if so, what was his reaction? The lume is impressive too. All the Best, Life is Good! Klink Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Del 4,518 Posted July 13, 2015 Very nice mate. It's a great watch - I used to have the pepsi bezel version. http://www.rwg.bz/board/index.php?showtopic=59402 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
insert-here 0 Posted July 13, 2015 Nice! What size is it? Looks a little big on your wrist. I have tiny girly man wrist, and need smaller watches. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

WatchDog21 3,345 Posted July 13, 2015 It is a great watch. Seiko just puts out some good quality at such reasonable prices. I am sure it will be appreciated! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kwt 11 Posted July 14, 2015 Thanks all! Superb pics Gaz and I was considering the Pepsi Del but decided to go for classic black for my dad who is a lot more reserved. Has your dad seen it yet, and if so, what was his reaction? Klink I am planning to give it to him on Sunday man - I can't see him not liking it although he did give me a gen datejust a few years ago - I am hoping he will appreciate the gesture as his current Seiko is dying Nice! What size is it? Looks a little big on your wrist. I have tiny girly man wrist, and need smaller watches. Hey it's for my dad who has much bigger wrist then mine. This is 42mm and I rarely wear watches above 40mm. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Genius 281 Posted July 14, 2015 Cracking watch for the price, been meaning to get myself a seiko diver but been skint recently Tells the month which is a bonus. I think that's probably the day not the month (Mar(tes) is Tuesday in Spanish) a lot of Seikos have a bilingual day feature, just advance it again and it will probably change to Wednesday in English Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dave47 6,556 Posted July 14, 2015 THAT is one serious but gorgeous looking Seiko diver, K. Absolutely beautiful. Your Dad SHOULD love it. If not, there are plenty of eager wrists out here that would love to wear it HINT!! HEH! Good luck, and thanks for the tip. dave Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kwt 11 Posted July 14, 2015 Gotta love Seiko 5. A lot of watch, usually less than $150! Shit that is so sick!!! I was looking at the gold/black version of your model on creation as that is what I wanted originally but they had completely sold out.

For such a cheap watch, telling the day is a nice touch - you only need to look at the expensive day-date watches to see how much they charge for such a complication!
