No more watches for the rest of the year...
Anyone received one of the new Shoguns yet?
It's on a short list of about 15 at the moment but info is a little thin on the ground
Arrived this morning,not keen on tapered straps so that will be changed.

Was looking for another Seiko diver. Having tried several of the larger models with crowns at the 20 min point, I wanted one of the 62MAS inspired models, nearer to 40mm with the crown in the correct place. The dark Blue dial SPB149J1 limited edition ticked all my boxes, but appeared to be sold out everywhere. I tried a WTB on here and got lucky, arrived today and absolutely delighted with it.

I've had a couple of the 43mm models and a Marine Master and generally found them a little large. I also tried one of Eddie's PRS-68 which is a Willard clone and that didn't really work either. This new 149 has touches of various Seadweller models about it and works for me. I can see that it would be a little small for some though.
Thank you
I am really impressed with this Certina DS Ph200, ETA 80 hour power reserve, domed ceramic bezel and crystal,

Terrible pic but new today. Really like it, but need to go get my 114060 tomorrow so I can compare the two. Lugs how they should be. https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/202...b53cacae48.jpg
Nice one [emoji106] not too long at all

Thanks guys and yep, one trick pony here!
It's the smallest Rolex I have along with the 114060. To me it looks like a regular no date but with the SD43 lugs which is a good thing. I'll have a look next to my 114060 tomorrow but I can't notice the extra 1mm, just the lugs. If anything it feels a bit flatter on the wrist -- could be the extra 1mm or I could be making it up. Either way it's a fantastic watch.
The SD43 is usually my daily and the D-Blue is for weekends. I have thighs for wrists and don't think I could go smaller than this. That said I would love an LV. Love a dive watch.
The extra 1mm on the case is a bit misleading, it went from 40.3mm to 40.5mm, so 0.2mm caused the rounding difference up to 41mm.
Seems the only tangible size changes are in the bracelet lug width and the size of the lugs themselves, which seems to be almost universally preferred. I've not seen one in person yet, but I hope to get one some day!
Congrats Wiley. Looks great on your wrist. And that chunkier bracelet looks to suit you well.
When you have your 11 series alongside you may compare the bracelet taper, so much more pronounced on the old model. I used to think that was a good thing, but the 12 certainly has addressed balance issues.
Biggest plus I have noticed was AR coating on the 12. Makes the dial so much more vivid. Look forward to your thoughts.
Could it be a better crystal? Not an actual AR coating?
Internal AR coating I believe.

Last incoming of the year and frankly I’m done for now. A controversial diver, but damn it’s one heck of a watch!

I’ll maybe do a thread on it later.

I’m a big fan. Now have 4, don’t plan to add anymore as covered most bases.
You get a superbly built product with very deliberate and considered choices to the watch design. Worth the value at all price points - you get what you pay for. So more you pay, more ‘watch’ you get. Obviously you have to buy into the design. Heres the diver on strap and 1901 on bracelet - the combos which I think suit both best -
