That's pretty dam cool of your missus, been with my missus just shy of 25yrs according to her all my watches look the same, My first Seiko, an unexpected Silver Wedding Anniversary gift from my Wife, picked with no prompting or hints from me.
I've not had it off my wrist for this last Month!
Cheers, looks very nice.
My second Seiko in the space of a few weeks and I have now put the SK007 onto a Strapcode Oyster bracelet which I really love!
my second seiko in as many weeks and to think i used to think they were just cheap dodgy jap crap
i was a fool back then
Just arrived here, the SRP717K, lovely dark green dial, very subtle!
that green dial really sets it off with a little splash of red and yelllow,
heck that is a good looking watch you got your self i think im green right now
That's very nice, where did you get it from?

The triple grip bezel is just lovely.
Oh and the drilled lugs!!
Cheers Matt I've been waiting for a decent dark mercedes hands set for a while to bring a bit of my favourite Sub DNA to the 007. And thought I would bring the Superdome to this one at the same time.
I felt more comfortable with the departure in main due to having the 7548 as original as they come.
Do you still have your SKX?
It's a Titainium Samurai. And doing rather well running at +4.2 seconds! Happy with that!

Yes, still got it - thought several times of selling it, but the modded one remains, sitting beside a 007 & 009 and a monster.

Lovely watch.

I'm not what you'd call a Seiko "fan". Never bought one for the brand name, and certainly don't collect them. And yet with the addition of a SKX007 to the fold this week, I did a quick inventory and it turns out I have nine of them. None of them particularly collectable, desirable or valuable; none you could call a classic, possibly excepting the newest arrival.
The light is a bit dim for photography in NW Leics at the moment, but here are three of them:
An ana-digi, acquired in 1986 or 1987:
A digital I saw in the window of Austin Kaye in 2000 (I think it was £25 or so):
An automatic I bought in Derby in 1991. Still on its original strap.

Just got a Seiko SUN021, aka the Kinetic Tuna GMT. Bloody huge, it is. Not too unwieldy to wear though... :)
Sorry about the naff smartphone photo, no decent camera at the minute.
Orange Wednesdays!! 😀

Most seen Seiko after the SKX series?
My mid size 4025 from the early eighties with custom 31trum strap. Lume is faded on dial and just about gone on hands, new crystal and bezel insert. Crystal was hard to find in good condition, first one NOS had strange spots that wouldn't polish out.
Photo was a sort of EDC for the strap maker as that's one of his wallets.
My daily wearer, I like it as its not huge on my skinny wrists and it hand winds too
I just love these. But why god why not get give a £1000 watch a sapphire crystal! :-( :-( :-(Most seen Seiko after the SKX series?

Awwww
My 1995 SKA016 today
My Neo/Mini/Baby Monster I sold, but have a "real Monster" now, which I have (had) modded (see the appropriate thread: http://forum.tz-uk.com/showthread.ph...-watch-somehow!)
BTW: A mini Monster is just as big as the real deal..
Nicely painted. You have steadier hands than me. ;-)
I had no idea! These GS Divers are amazing!! Just awesome in ever way.
The guys at SalonQP were all over it too! Awesome.
