Great spot. Had the 655 for a while now. It sits neatly for such a big watch thanks to the well curved case back and lugs.

I thought this was a good deal, a new Seiko 'baby tuna' SRP653K1/SRP655K1 from Ernest Jones for £299, £200 off list. I couldn't find it cheaper anywhere else. Links below:-

Also, at the moment you get a £50 voucher for every £150 you spend so I've got £100 to use. I think there's a £150 minimum purchase to use them, but just in time for Christmas when you're thinking of presents for the other half (or yourself haha).
Anyway thought there might be some other Seiko fans interested...

Yeh I saw the price in-store last weekend and thought it was a good discount, it was only when I remembered to take a look today that I realised how good it was. I've gone for the 653, just thought it looked a little less stealthy.
When I bought mine, only the 655 was available at a good price. Really don't know which I'd have gone for had I the choice. Both look rather cool.

Thanks for the heads up, what a great opportunity to get a good value iconic watch.
Darn too big @ 5 cms face

No arguing, it's big. Worth trying on if you can find a localish supplier; you may be surprised at how small it wears. I'm presently on an 'anti big watch' campaign yet this model has not been involved in the initial cull. I have a puny 17cm wrist to give further perspective.
Went to pick the 'new' watch today and spotted some swirlies on the back of it. I've asked them to get another one in, although they did look a little flabbergasted, maybe I'm too picky?
The back usually has blue cellophane sticker to prevent such issues. Makes me wonder if it was a return.
