Convinced me to buy another Black Monster. For $139 bucks, how do you say no to this ugly face.   |

LOVE waiting on shipping from Singapore!  Sometimes, buying an inexpensive watch can stave off the inevitable expensive watch purchase. |

OK, so I want one of these. Can these be bought in stores in the US, or do I have to go the net or eBay route?
Went to the Seiko USA site to find a local dealer and the Monster isn't listed on their site. This an Asia only watch?

Ben.... While I've heard of the rare occasion where someone found a BM or OM in a local store, your best bet is probably eBay. There are several reputable sellers on eBay that are in Asia. Do a search for "skx779*" and you should find plenty of Black Monsters. I have bought 2 watches from the seller "watches59" and had no problems. Also know a lot of people have purchased from "pokemonyu". Just check feedback and buy from one of the larger sellers and you'll be alright.  |

I've purchased two Seiko's from reputable dealers on Ebay. I figure over 28,000 feedback and 97-98% positive can't be too bad. Jeff |

Ebay is a great way to go, the only problem is no box or papers and no warranty, but its not like it really matters on a $150 dollar watch. I have heard of various Seiko outlet stores, I know their is one in Las Vegas somewhere, that offer the monster at a good price with box, papers and warranty. Also the watch commander has them for $200. I got mine from ebay with no problems and would recommend that, but just giving you the options. |

If you could get one with box & papers that would be nice. I wouldn't pay much extra though. At $139, if it breaks just buy another one.....and I highly doubt you'll ever have to worry about that anyway. |

Hmmm.....orange or black....orange or black....orange or black.  The black is a classic color. But the orange....ahhh, now that's just an in-your-face color and this looks like an in-your-face kinda watch. Decisions, decisions... -Ben |

That IS the question Ben. For $300 bucks you could have both! That's what I did a few short months ago....then I sold both of them....now I miss them so I just bought another BM. Both are oh so cool though!   |

Well....decided to go with in-your-face orange. Just did the deed on eBay. Thanks for everyone's advice. Can't wait to get it. -Ben |
