So Joe decided to order a new Seiko and not tell anyone. He posted it on the WRUW today and I liked it so I called him tonight to ask what it was and where he got it. I found it online and added to my "cart". Went to checkout and Amazon had a "you may also like" section at the bottom of the page. Amazon was right, I found one that I liked better so I ordered that one instead. It's an skx007 and it gets here Thursday. I'll post pictures of it Thursday night. I haven't purchased a watch in years and now I've bought three in two weeks... Damn you Joe!  |

Sorry about the layout of the pictures. This is a really nice watch for the money. In my haste to open it and show it to the world I didn't set the bezel to zero but it aligns perfectly. My only regret is getting the strap rather than the bracelet but still nice and comfortable nonetheless.

The strap is great for summers and that's a classic diver. You can always source the bracelet separately. I found a site in japan a while back to get OEM parts at great prices. If I can't find it, I'm sure someone here can point you in the right direction.

I'm pretty sure I still have a bookmark somewhere for a place that sells the jubilee style bracelet for that watch.
That's a good one Luke, I've always liked those.

I have it's fraternal twin with the Pepsi bezel. Like you, I got it on the strap, then sourced a bracelet. It's a very popular model for Seiko.
