    my humble collection of seiko divers. (pic heavy)

    this is my small but growing collection of seiko dive watches.
    i have only been collecting them for a few months, hence only 3 watches so far.
    i am not a diver and never will be but i love these watches for what they are and how they look, as someone said in another thread, dive watches are (to me anyway) what a tool watch should be.

    so on to the pictures.
    i have taken these not to show off what i have, but for a bit of practice taking pics of my watches, which i have to admit im not very good at. :D
    i have spent the last couple of hours playing with all the settings on my camera and doing these pics which i am quite happy with.

    thanks for reading and hope you enjoy the pics.

    I can see you in a Monster next, then a Sumo looms on the horizon... then you're into your Tunas! :D

    I suspect you can take as long as you need to save up. It won't be going anywhere in a hurry! :shock:

    That's actually the first Mini Monster I've seen on a mesh. Looks as good as it's older brother IMO. Great combo.

    Very nice collection so far! Wear them in health. As mentioned, the SKX007 is missing, which is the most classic Seiko divers watch and a watch that every divers watches collection must have IMHO. After that, I would go for a Sumo and then a Samurai or a Frankenmoster.

    Seiko divers are great watches overall and great VFM, so you don't have to be a diver to own these watches, but who knows..
