Reply With QuoteLooks like a poorly-conceived photoshop TBH. Seiko bezels usually have the coloured part going to the 20 marker and the cyclops wasn't well received on the Stargate. I'm going to call "not real".
Interesting new release due - an orange turtle with a cyclops.
Model number is SRPC95K1 I think, not much info around, one of the few sites it's on is listing it under SRPC93K1 but that seems to be the reference for a Samurai. This is the only place I can find it http://watch2we.net/PD1230951-%E0%B8...ens_watch.html
Limited Edition.

I hope that is just a photoshop’d effort!
The cyclops is appalling and the bezel clashes with the Orange face IMO....

I was going to say that they only go to 15 on the new Samurais, but then again they go to 20 on all the different editions of the new Turtles that I have seen, so it would be at least odd to change it on this oneOriginally Posted by Papa Hotel
I'm also doubtful that it's real
This does look a bit dodgy, but if you were going to photoshop an existing model to turn it into this, it'd be strange to end up with the highlighted part of the bezel insert different to the rest of the turtles. Then again, it wouldn't make any sense for seiko to do this either.
Curious.
Seems to be a model for the Asian Market (maybe Thailand?) and will be coming with a sunburst dial.
That image only seems to exist on photo-sharing sites. There's NO info from Seiko about this.Seems to be a model for the Asian Market (maybe Thailand?) and will be coming with a sunburst dial.
Yes. Here is another one I just found on google image search:
not bad at all IF it's genuine...
I guess it makes sense if that the highlight on the bezel only runs to 15 to line up with the cyclops.
Do a Google search for Seiko Orange Turtle. The top bunch of links are mod threads on WUS.
The second link is to an article on Hodinkee about the black edition.
The third link leads to this thread.
The watch doesn't exist.
Dang you're really insistent on this!
That cyclops is horrendous , I hope it doesn’t exist

Doesnt look like sunburst either in some shots. Perhaps for supporters of the Dutch soccer team, then cancelled ;-)
New pics found on IG and WUS:
Unless it's a mod, it certainly looks real but I still don't get that big oblong day date bubble thing

Personally I don’t think it’s too bad but it seems strange to me that in all the photos it’s showing exactly the same time, day and date.
Par for the course with dummy watches, have a look at various brands Basel display watches for example.
It’s real guys. Hoping to pick one up next week in Thailand
