Should I order the Seiko Ripley?

Recommended Posts

KarmaToBurn

Last year I picked up the limited edition Seiko re-issue of the watch worn by the character Bishop in the movie Aliens (although in a different colour)...

This year Seiko is doing a LE re-issue of the watch worn by Ripley in Aliens. I've been in touch with the usual JDM suppliers and I can order one for $270 USD delivered. I like the watch design quite a bit and the only thing that's holding me back is that it's a fairly steep price for a quartz watch (especially with the crappy CDN dollar) and that I can get a cool new rep with the same money :P What do you guys think? Should I just make the order?

I like the first one better.. the one you have already. I'd pass on the Ripley one.

Is that a laser beam attachment on the side? You could zap aliens in the eye with?

Really hard to say. You could say it looks retro and cool (as with anything retro these day) or you could say that is one ugly ass watch and you forever in your mind would want to keep straightening the head up.

 

I am really on the fence about it. Would I wear one if given to me....probably yes.
