    Any love for this Seiko Reference?

    One of my impulse purchases and one that I really want to love! But gets so little wrist time due to never finding a strap I like with it!

    I guess the fact that it competes for wrist time directly with the Omega 2254 makes it more difficult? There is no point asking on here which one people would keep in their collection with these two!? So my question to the Seiko fans is what is the best options for straps for this? Because I think without finding one soon this will be up for the chop from the collection.

    I’ve got my SPB079 on a strapcode oyster bracelet.

    Available (usually) on Amazon for under £100.

    I think the original rubber strap looks best on this model, I'm not a big fan of them on a bracelet.
    What did it come on when you got it?

    Unfortunately it came on one of Seikos bracelets and the quality and comfort isn’t great. So lasted a day or so on this.

    I’m currently wearing mine on a crafter blue rubber strap. They do one that is designed specifically for the MM200 range. It has curved ends which gives a great fit to the case. There are 15 holes and they are fairly close together so easy to get a comfortable fit. Having tried a few different rubber strap this is definitely the best so far.

    I really like the look of this reference, and I think the Perlon is great with it.

    So as an alternative to the obvious choices, how about replacing the bulky NATO - which adds two layers of material between wrist and caseback - with a two-part Perlon?

    Eulit make one called 'Palma', and I reckon the grey version would give you a different look and feel to your watch:

    Any chance of a mini review of this?
    Having just got a MM300 I really like the look of this but haven't really seen any reviews.
    My SLA047 strap is super cool but a dust magnet.
