Looks great on the Isofrane. I feel the same way about the SBBN007, I think it works best on rubber straps. I wear mine either on a flat vent or this orange Bonetto Cinturini:Originally Posted by S.L

Very good. And I'm not a bracelet fan in general.
Just make sure to stay well away from their MM300 oyster bracelet, horrible end link look & fit.
I've not had a Seiko for a while, since I sold my SNZH53K last year
just taken delivery of this yesterday, first impressions are positive although bracelet was soon changed for Zuludiver rubber
I believe Unkleseiko is producing a reproduction of the Z199 for 7548/six and new srp

So £30 and a spare Hirsch from the bits box got me this.
Not worn this for a while, but it's my favourite Seiko.
It's probably somewhere earlier in the thread already, but I love the way the dial can look almost black one minute and a greyish-blue the next, the step between the chapter ring and the dial, the way the subdials cut into the chapter ring and the yellow chrono hands.
£125 well spent!

PS Another example of a watch that had a phase as a forum favourite, but seems to have mostly vanished from sight.

My one and only Seiko. Blue lagoon turtle on yellow rubber nato.
SBBN039
I agree, had the 007 and 009 and the 7 works so much better
I'm considering my third 007, I wear a 009 for work and rough stuff but the black is nicer IMO.
Congratulations Stefan. My all time favorite Tuna. May I ask for the first two digits of its serial number?
Thank you Mario!
Serial starts with 53. It should have a "no M" dial originally and I also received that one together with the watch, it had been mistakenly swapped during service in Japan and when discovered they returned the original dial but did not ask for the other one back. Will see when/if I get around to switch them.
Really is particularly nice that one Stefan... :)
Thats a very early one. Should you ever switch the dials and consider selling the m dial please let me know as I have a 59xxxx 6159-7010 with (slightly) damaged m dial.
Duly noted Mario!

Very nice Jimlad! 62MAS looks super.
Same watch different colour scheme. My fav out of the bunch is sne441Looks like a very similar model
Wasn't sure whether to post this here or on the "renovate" thread, but since I know very little about Seikos can anyone tell me whether this has the original hands and/or dial? I am presuming it is a first generation 7002-7000, but as I say I am ignorant of most things Seiko.
It runs well, and I do have a replacement sapphire crystal and crown in the box somewhere.
I posted this image in response to a thread about replacement straps for a field watch.
What I really like about Seikos is that they can be picked up for a reasonable price, minor repairs can be carried out at home (the white-faced Seiko has a replacement crystal fitted) and they come in a seemingly infinite variety!
Some Orange to brighten up the classic 007
Original. Looks good and always nice to see a 7002 that original as so many are given fake dials and aftermarket parts. Lume is usually quite green, depending on how the light hits them, hands are similar to the skx in shape, meatball second hand has a wide border, not too thin but beware there are other fake hands that have quite a thick border. Dial code is correct, print and size, lume box next to date window is the correct size. Seiko logo print is perfect. 12 o'clock lume triangle has correctly shaped edges. And yes 1st gen. Second generation have a unidirectional rotating ring and Diver's 200m text much the same as the skx that came just a year later.Wasn't sure whether to post this here or on the "renovate" thread, but since I know very little about Seikos can anyone tell me whether this has the original hands and/or dial?

SARG009, love it. Hadn't added any Seikos since the mid-90s

That's great, thank you.
Yes, love the 7002.... Here's a lovely example of the 2nd generation 7002-7020 with the less common blue dial:
