How do you find Spinnaker’s build?

Mate I really like this one and I think build, fit and finish is great for the pricepoint, tight bezel, fine cut edges to the lugs, and no marks on the sapphire even after a lot of rough treatment on construction sites. The weakest point is the plastic bezel insert which of course shows the most signs of heavy use.

Oh I will note that the hands are probably the crappest cheapest looking hands I have seen on any watch. I may replace them one of these days.

I mostly wear it on a Strapcode Super Oyster bracelet but the strap that comes with it is still a nice one which is waterproof, sort of a plasticized leather.

They have a few models I don’t mind the look of and I dare say I’ll add one to the collection one day. 

This one is at the top of the list

Nice Rolex  [mention=34154]RussP[/mention]!
You must have too much money.....
I received a new watch yesterday, nothing too fancy, just had to scratch an itch as I hadn’t had a new timepiece on my wrist in a number of months.

Thanks mate!

This model comes in a variety of colour schemes, red and black, orange as well, and most likely others I haven’t seen.

I purchased on sale for $200AUD, pretty bloody cheap IMO.

Bracelet is the usual ‘ok’ Seiko quality, but it’s overall great! And only gained about 80 seconds in the week it was in my wrist. Not bad for out of the box Seiko.

That's a lovely watch, Reuben.

Monster-like in so many ways, but in a smaller case I'm guessing?

44.5 without crown I do believe. About as big as I like to go on my wrist.

Bit of a random buy this one, but I think I quite like it...
