    Just picked up from the courier room

    Going off the back of the "Seiko" thread here's my new grab & go/holiday/beater. A Seiko SKA371 or more affectionately known as the BFK. (Big Frikkin Kinetic)

    The bracelet that came with the watch is excellent quality but I prefer the comfort of my Watchadoo. Thanks to the drilled lugs changing the straps was a breeze.

    It's a very hefty watch. I think there is a thread on WUS somewhere where the owner of of one of these watches puts it through it's paces. A quick Google search should find it.

    Anyway here are the photo's




    I'm very happy with it :)

    That, sir, is really lovely. I wish I'd never found this forum. There are so many more lovely watches than I ever knew existed!

    I have to say, that's a mighty fine looking Seiko. Am I right in saying it's a good deal chunkier than the usual SKX-variants?

    Oh yes it's a lot chunkier than the 007 and 009 variants. I have both of these as well but this is my first foray into the world of Kinetics and I must say I am impressed so far. Timekeeping is spot on. It hasn't lost or gained a second in a week so far.

    The bracelet is a Watchadoo I got from EBay. I had to wait a while for it to arrive because it came all the way from Australia but the quality is second to none and its the most comfortable I own.

    I have had both black and yellow versions of these, lovely watches.
