trailboss99 994 Posted July 29, 2013 I got my sapphire crystal upgrades for all my Seiko's from him. A sapphire crystal is NOT an upgrade on a true diver's tool watch, they shatter so much easier than a Seiko Hardlex. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Pharmo 33 Posted July 29, 2013 OK, just got up as couldn't really sleep with the poll hanging over me TBH I am quite surprised at just how close the poll is on this, at the moment 11 votes for yellow and 12 for black. It just shows that they are both beautiful watches. I remember looking at the same poll on watchuseek from a while ago and the orange had 64% of the votes. I have just voted for the orange as it just slightly has taken the edge on the black - ultimately I already have a lot of black faced watches and there is something classic about the orange monster. So just going to order orange from Amazon and will have it in my hands tomorrow @greg-r, I noticed you went for the black version. When u get bored we will need to do a swap @Del - valid point about your lovely tanned skin. Reassures me will go nicely with my soft brown tone! @Richard from Miami - Seiko custard, more like Seiko vomit! Not a great fan of the yellow to be honest. Must admit the only watch to pull off yellow imo is breitling. @BCK - thought about ordering both but where`s the fun in that! Thanks chaps - some very interesting comments. DAMN..............now I ordered the orange, already missing the black Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

SSTEEL 0 Posted July 29, 2013 I voted for black, as I plan on getting one myself before Christmas, but I have to say, Del's outdoor photo shoot of his Orange Monster almost converted me. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
