Can’t wait picking mine up tomorrow.
There’s one on eBay for £599 flipper
Picked up my Black Turtle today - very happy with it. Didn't think i would get on with the vented strap, as the pictures of old that I've seen seem to make them look to wide. I find this to be very comfortable, and looks good as well.
Pictured below in extreme stealth mode!
Mine got returned. It just felt a little flimsy.

My wife has stolen mine since I put it on orange rubber
Happy with mine too.
Very nearly bought the grey sunburst dial Turtle yesterday after seeing it in the Seiko shop, really nice.

The black turtle looks great! I wasn't sure when I first saw them but they've really grown on me.
Quite interested in one of these myself. The main reason I didn't jump all over it was that I wasn't sure a turtle would suit my wrist, but I've recently picked up an SRP773 and really love it so am definitely keen on the black one now.
Really liking mine - surprisingly legible for an all black watch.
Time to start trying on different straps (you can never have enough straps!)
Nice photos!! I can’t wait till mine arrives how come Japan release is last!!???

I think I'll need to try one of these, already a fan of the standard turtles but the lume mismatch put me off these black ones initially.
One thing I've not been able to tell 100% from the pics is whether we've got a few different finishes and shades of black on different parts of the watch? Looks like the case might be a sort of matte satin black where as the bezel and crown are more of a shinier or glossier black?
Andy, Skip - thanks for the info, sounds like I'll need to give one a try
I visited the Seiko boutique in Knightsbridge in london today and they have one in there

Was going to keep this quiet, but have decided not to buy one... https://www.firstclasswatches.co.uk/...c49k1-p-44083/ (in stock)
Finally these were released in Sweden as well,
I've succumbed and bought one of these as well... that's now 3 new turtles (this plus the SRPC23 and SRPC25) in 2 days lol. Love them!
Couple more strap changes -
Mine arrived today :-). Very impressed so far.
With some direct sunlight you can see some of the solar panel within the black dial
As you would expect from Seiko, a little bit of bright light and the lume pops beautifully

Any scratches yet any one.
Thought I'd share these, not of the watch which is a mod so not the subject of this thread but the strap which was delivered this week. If you like a NATO with a stripe then this works vey well on a black diver. Stripe is quite understated. These are the darker fittings too.

That does suit the watch.
I went down the orange strap route for now. It smells nice to!
Some great pics - fingers crossed my WTB comes good so I can give one a try.
