My new Seiko (I blame seclark007)

Recommended Posts

greg_r

Sean posted his Seiko snzg83 NSD wannabe and I just couldn't resist - especially given the ridiculously low price that Creation were asking (£96!)

 

It's another fairly standard Seiko 5 diver, but a little bigger than the snzh5x series at 44mm. I'm planning to put this on a decent thick leather strap which I think will suit it more than the bracelet does - but for now I'm enjoying as-is, having worn the thing two days in a row (which is unusual for me).

 

Here's a couple of pics:

Well, not yet anyhow ;)

 

Seriously, I'd have trouble finding the time to actually build one right now. I'll get there in due course, however :)

Hey, I started out wanting a Day/Date. Just one day/date.

 

Then I ended up with 40+ watches and running a fucking forum! You think you've got problems! :rofl:
