It's on the rubber now I'll give it another try when I have the bracelet back on, thanks.Originally Posted by Wallasey Runner
Very cool. I'll be interested to see how it compares to standard steel over time. Future forum thread idea right there!Added official Seiko diashield coated bracelet to my Seiko
Brand new. Happy out. Seller had got it with variation of the watch and never wore
Colour match is perfect..the coating gives a watch a slightly different shade of silver than normal
I did open it yesterday but it wasn't very obvious and it was tricky to close so I'm almost afraid to try again
Very nice pal. What do you think ?
Only arrived today and just sized it but initial impressions are good. The dial is lovely and it seems to wear smaller than 41mm. Slight disappointment that the crown isn't screw down and the bracelet uses split pins but overall it is very nice.
My second one of this LE MM300.
Just had the camera out so took a few snaps of some different vintages I don't think I have shown before.
Ooooh!! Some beauties there Neil!

Funny little Arctura kinetic I picked up on FB marketplace. Fitted a new capacitor, ticking away happily. Have ordered a NOS 19mm bracelet which isn't original, but will look the part, I hope.

The new king turtle
Looks black there, it’s dark olive green thought and looks great. The gold text and second hand are a nice detail too.

I don’t mind it at the moment, It doesn’t really need it though
Yeah I thought as much, I guess it's possible to replace the crystal if it really bothered you.
Just remove the cyclops
My new one
I FEEL LIKE I'M DIAGONALLY PARKED IN A PARALLEL UNIVERSE
New Prospex Samurai arrival today in blue... and feeling the Seiko love right now.
Had my PADI on earlier also.
Absolute value and great build!
Nice blue Gregory!
Today 14Mar20, my SNXS91, mod with black hands and black daydate dials, and a leatherstrap, 19mm.

Even inside, on a dull day, Seiko lume attempts to fire up.
In my opinion, you can`t go wrong with a Seiko, I have a 1979 Turtle 6309-7040 and a Tuna myself.
Same watch, different light.Even inside, on a dull day, Seiko lume attempts to fire up.
It is incredibly difficult to capture what this dial really looks like!
Another pick up

Rejected one on Friday due to the bezel being half a click out. Was meant to buy a different one on Saturday but I'm self isolating. Annoying.
That’s a shame, I thought this had been sorted out. Luckily my past two have watches have been fine.
Looks great, congrats!Another pick up

My blue tuna at Capenwray dive quarry this weekend. Too nice to take in the water though!
Love that SNJ025.
I just have an SKX. It's now on a navy nato.

"The 6139 is Seiko’s first automatic chronograph movement. It is a single register chronograph, with a 30 minute counter, no continuous seconds and a quickset day-date display. It was produced from 1969 until around 1979.

I might as well drop this pic in here, too - new to me, and £85.

Thanks Neil - I'm now looking for an original bracelet
6106-8100 - Seiko's First Diver - but only 70m Proof
1969
38mm
case in really good condition, as is dial and hands
all bezel inserts seem to be like that
Images do not do it justice - better in the flesh
original dial could not be saved but I managed to pick up an original dial from the US and Guy J serviced the watch and fitted the replacement parts
another early Seiko saved
trying to identify what the original strap would have been
maybe the white balance is wrong on the image, the BG should be white!!

I have an original crystal for the 8009

My first nice watch I got this when I was 15 of my Nan, that was 41 years ago now
That's the Glory of Seiko - so many interesting watches to collect - and their quality, no matter at what price point, has lasted

I had never been into Seiko watches in the past but picked up an SKX007 and loved it. The 6309 arrived the other day too.
Lovely bit of retro.
