To whomever it was, thank you so much for your kind and generous act of making me a Benefactor! What a great forum this is, Wow! Well deserved! It has been great to see you back, and so active on the forums, once again. Well, off to the pub, sporting my new Seiko. I just realized, too, that this is the first Seiko watch I have owned. Carl

Hey, Ian! What great taste you have, and what a great gift. Now Carl and I both have an orange Monster. We've always had similar taste in watches. Just got in from my grandson's 3rd Birthday party, so I'm a little late to this one.......here is MY OM:
Congrats, Carl. Cool watch, and a cool color.....

Just got in from my grandson's 3rd Birthday party, so I'm a little late to this one.......here is MY OM: Yeah. Here we go again! This one is definitely a keeper! And I don't say that very often, at the rate I flip watches. Well, off to the pub now to celebrate. I really am quite excited! Now...if I could just find a purse and a pair of shoes to match that gorgeous dial . Cheers, Carl

Found a "new" strap for the Monster! Actually, a Hirsch strap that I got long ago for another watch. I had to trim it from 22mm to 20mm, but it looks great on the watch IMO. I did trim off a bit too much, so some bits of spring bar show, but hardly noticeable. I will get some better pics later: Cheers, Carl

What a wonderful tread. Congrats on that great gift. It seems the Seiko Monster has become the 'forum watch' ? . . . . I might begin hunting one down

It's also become the darling of my instagram feed. Possibly too much even but what the heck, at least I'm having fun with it.

Have y'all noticed that we, as a group, get stuck on certain watches for a couple of months? I think it's kinda cool. Monsters, fleigers, speedmasters, swatches, aerospace.
