Pharmo 33 Posted July 29, 2013 Good morning friends, Ok I have just come from a looooong night shift and before I hit the sack I have decided to treat myself to a Seiko monster - thanks to Del`s recent pictures for making me bankrupt!! Now here lies the problem - I thought I would just order the orange and be done with it, but I cant seem to get away from the fact that the black monster also looks very nice. So I will let you chaps decide for me...I will sleep for around 8 hours and when I woke up the order goes in!! So will it be this or this Thanks for your help gents and good night!

TheSav 2 Posted July 29, 2013 It's not a monster if its not orange. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
conx 0 Posted July 29, 2013 Black. Orange is too gaudy for my taste. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Del 4,463 Posted July 29, 2013 It has to be the iconic orange dial - you'll always be disappointed if you buy the black! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
greg_r 81 Posted July 29, 2013 nah - Orange too gaudy (although it goes nicely with your fake tan, Del ). I'd never wear it. Black for me. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Del 4,463 Posted July 29, 2013 nah - Orange too gaudy (although it goes nicely with your fake tan, Del ). I'd never wear it. Black for me. Wtf? Those are real freckles! And, btw, the orange is eye-catching, not gaudy.......! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
greg_r 81 Posted July 29, 2013 Seriously, the orange is very distinctive and I love the look of it - BUT I'd never wear it. Black on order. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mbren30 0 Posted July 29, 2013 I'm toying with the idea of getting one of these too. Would HAVE to be the orange one though. Think ill probably order one in September once I've been paid my overtime from August. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Wrist-Time 0 Posted July 29, 2013 I like the orange after seeing it on holiday. I'm thinking of getting one too. bet you've got plenty of black face watches already. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
salokiN 0 Posted July 29, 2013 (edited) Just get the orange one first, when you're bored of it, just get a gen black dial from Yobokies (based in Hong Kong) and swap it in. He also has lots of other stuff available for Seiko mods. You can even turn your Monster into a Snow Monster with white dial and blue bezel insert(?). I got my sapphire crystal upgrades for all my Seiko's from him. Edited July 29, 2013 by salokiN Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
misterclean 0 Posted July 29, 2013 I vote black. Bright and loud reminds me of something a highschooler would wear. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Rusty2801 16 Posted July 29, 2013 Never seen the Orange in real life, I've got the black one and I love it, the quality is great and it wears really well. Hopefully Dels might make an appearance at the GTG Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Del 4,463 Posted July 29, 2013 Bright and loud reminds me of something a highschooler would wear. I can assure you that I am far from being a highschooler.......! :P Let me just say that when I received my Orange Monster while on holiday I expected my wife to tell me that it was ugly. However, to my great surprise, she said that she really liked the orange dial (she very rarely comments on my watches at all!) and then, to top it off, one of my sister-in-laws said she loved the orange dial too (she never batted an eyelid at my black Seawolf or Hamilton Khaki Navy GMT though!).

Ianp 0 Posted July 29, 2013 I'm not keen on the old black face but I like the newer black face with red http://www.amazon.co.uk/Generation-Monster-Stainless-Steel-Rubber/dp/B009DP9EHS/ref=sr_1_6?s=watch&ie=UTF8&qid=1375097052&sr=1-6&keywords=seiko+monster but otherwise, go orange.
