    You certainly get a lot of watch for your money with Seiko.

    @ADDIC:

    @seanocono:

    Nice watch.  I say go for it.

    @Friday:

    Go for it if you like it. Tough watch and good looking.

    I am. Don't have much knowledge on watches but I've read that Seiko is a good brand and its in my price range.

      If I were to go for a Rolex, I think I'd want a Sea Dweller, like this one

      Although, I have to admit, this special edition Deepsea is pretty choice, too

        I did some training with Patek Phillipe in NY, and they were the only company that I have ever come across that required their watchmakers to make their own screwdriver tips out of brass.  It was a pita because brass is so soft, and you are constantly having to reshape the drivers for the screw slots, but there is a reason the movements look so clean

                        Nice! I've always liked Damasko, and the full lume face is super cool.  Does that one have the new in-house movement?

                              I had the black-faced version of this watch a couple of years ago, at the height of my WIS phase - absolutely superb build quality, that case hardening really is the nuts.

                                I found a Blancpain Aqua Lung today. 😘

                                I've been eying up watches recently because I'm not really that happy with how my Breitling is behaving, but not a lot appeals. Well, apart from the WW2 German piece I posted earlier. This one, however, is special.

                                Must get saving…

                                  That one is nice.  I love the jumbo date feature; I wish more manufacturers would make watches with it.

                                  Wonder if you can get a whale penis leather strap made for it, you know- to really add something special…

                                      OK, I've found another, the Hermes In The Pocket watch.

                                      I'll have to check on the whale skin options for Chris. 😉

                                          Stop it. Just stop it! I can't afford another watch! That Lum Tec is beautiful!
