    Seiko Black Edition

    Not sure if these are sort after or not, there’s been some hype and a thread on here if I remember correctly.

    Not really my bag but the solar chronograph looked good.



    Seen in a jewellers window in Southport today if anyone is looking for one.

    From my experience with BFK DLC it is very durable

    That Turtle is definitely on my radar but I am already threading deep water with the wife.

    I need to sell before anymore incomings (apart from the ones already in the air)

    I’d love the turtle but the price is pretty high isn’t it? I thought the regular ‘turtle’ was around the £250 mark on a rubber strap?

    Does look really good though.

    Yep. I have one for about that price, like the black series but not paying the huge mark up for the black.

    From what I heard the ‘limited edition’ will make way for normal ones anyway, hopefully just a plain box and no ltd edition markings being the only difference. I just hope they don’t do the normal version with regular lume and hands though as I love that part of it with the black.

    Hopefully it’ll be a £250 job at creation in a few months.

    If not we’ll be kicking ourselves when the non ltd version comes out with regular lume and silver hands and the ltd edition one double in price!

    One of my local jewellers has a Turtle Padi at £429, I think it must be UK RRP.

    that's prob retail. Normal turle retails between 350-400 I believe so seems right

    One of my fellas at work bagged one last week and it is a lovely watch, a real looker. Made me think I need a Seiko back.

    Was that in Weldons?

    I have a PADI, I had a black one as well

    but for some reason I prefer the standard Pepsi,it’s simple yet the bezel adds just the right amount of colour.

    Yep Weldons. Funny shop with the most uninterested staff. I think they used to be a Sinn AD and they still have a couple of nos ones in the window.

    You're right there. It is a funny shop.

    I think I've only been in few times looking at the Seikos, and I wasn't overly impressed. I've never seen anyone buying from there.

    Didn't know they used to be a Sinn AD. Will have to look in the window a bit harder next time.
