Here's one of my favourites from January 1965.... 5717-8990 single hand chrono:
Not sure about that but in terms of production numbers I have a couple of other Tunas which should be much more scarce on the market than the SBDX005. That said the SBDX005 as part of the "Year 2000 Historical Collection" is probably deemed as very collectable and many sits in static collections, few are being sold.

^^^ Oooo, i like the red on black colour scheme!
Not worn this for a while. Struggling to understand why not. Just wish the bracelet fit me better.

SBBN015, the only Tuna that works on a bracelet for me.

I was too slow to grab that beauty. Love it! If you ever 'lose the love' Andrew drop me a line.

Cheers Pete. I had to offload my other Sumo when this stunner arrived.
If I lose the plot, and decide to offload, I know where you are.
It is a good timekeeper too at +2 sec/day
The great daytime lume that Seikos excel at.

Apologies for bathroom shot, best lighting there. This is my first ever Seiko, I can see myself getting a couple more at least. It is true the quality to price ratio embarrasses the Swiss. This is a sarw015 JDM model from seiya, great service.

Just wonder without the sub-dials, how does it tell the leap time?

Lovely strap. What is it? Looks a bit like a BP one.

Here's my all original silver dial 6139-6002 from 1973:
Originally Spring Drive movements were offered on watches branded Seiko. That practice stopped several years ago. Spring Drive movements are now available exclusively on Seiko's high end brands e.g. Grand Seiko, Galante, and Credor.

Isn't there a current Landmaster and some Tuna also offered with Springdrive movements?
Yes, I think you are right. These are the exceptions.
