Thread: Seiko 2021

    Seiko 2021

    Found this image doing the rounds; a couple of them have already been released...



    Particular attention goes to the limited SPB199 being released as the SPB197, but on a bracelet!

    The blue and grey turtle looks good to me too. Unsure about the recently released grey alpinist and the green MM200.

    Thoughts?

    They are really milking the Alpinist thing for all it's worth. We have had about 10 different watches out in the past two years.

    Is it true about the spb199/ spb197. Dial color is very special but hard to tell from web picture.

    The green mm200 is my favorite so far.

    From what’s been discussed elsewhere (unverified sources), it seems that it’s exactly the same watch head and dial, on a bracelet.

    The kicker is that having previously sold it at a premium and labelled it as an LE, the new one is supposedly a general release....

    A lot of apparentlys and supposedlys, so take it all with a pinch of salt given internet rumours, but if true, it seems a bit underhand by Seiko.

    Lets hope it’s true. I’d definitely pick one up

    Are there any other examples of seiko re releasing a limited under a new reference?

    What's the colourway of SPB211? (To my eye it's green with gilt accents but without the fumé effect present in SPB155, but as I'm partially colour blind, could someone confirm, please?)

    Looks brown to me with gilt hands as you say with matching brown strap. Not the best pics though so looking forward to seeing them when released. Fancy the green SPB207.
