Incoming yesterday

My other incoming this week, the Alpinist SPB199j1 now switched to a grey leather strap
Fantastic daily, perfect size and fairly light on the wrist oh and the killer dial.
This lot arrived on the slow boat from Japan this week. One was a little smaller than expected, something must have got lost in translation.
The ana-digi was bought for the working module however it is pristine which will make to difficult to pull it apart. Fortunately I don't need the movement yet so I can leave it be.
When buying an early solar watch that is advertised as junk you really, really hope that it does this when held under a strong light :
The module works so all I need is a new capacitor or rechargeable battery. Happy days.

That’s very cool, have never seen a moser in the metal.

Snap! I’m not a big fan of the bracelet on mine either, so I ordered the rubber strap option. I also found the Di-Modell Chronissimo, which is a waterproof leather strap that fits the SAR, and has the wings that marry up to the width of the outside of the lugs. Check it out!
Well done on your find too, looks good!

This little beauty arrived this week. Just a little bit different from the majority of PAMs and a great addition to the collection. Love the domed crystal, negates the 233 shaped space that I had.
To me to start trying different straps from my excessive 24mm collection.

Unfortunately I don’t have it yet, only bought the SAR last week (mightily impressed by it, btw) and ordered the strap and clasp a couple of days ago. It’ll be 2-3 weeks delivery I’m informed. The clasp from the bracelet fits the rubber, but I wanted to keep them both complete.
Purchases made from James Porter & Son in Glasgow’s Argyll Arcade, and cannot praise them highly enough. A really helpful and accommodating independent, who have taken on Muhle, Sinn and Doxa brands, amongst others, with fine displays and selections of each.
That’ll be handy if you have a 20mm Chronissimo kicking about!

This lovely watch from Venturo ( skin-diver ) arrived with me on Friday and I'm very impressed by the quality, plus the retina burning lume!!
Not mine but got to try on my brother's recent acquisition today.

Picked this up on SC. Back on its original bracelet and with a quick buff of the acrylic it looks great. Just love the depth the acrylic adds to the dial
Very similar sized case to the Datejust of the same era.
The lovechild of these 2

Had this model twice last year, sold to fund vacation trip, now, thanks to Nick who answered my WTB, acquired again. Hope this one will stay longer with me.
Double acquisition; after weeks in lockdown I think my impulse control has suffered rather.
On the upside, they’re both lovely and I got a decent discount. So, y’know, fair’s fair.
I do like that metal bezel on that Seiko.

Lovely looking watch.

What is/was RRP on these and what’s the market value now ?

Yes, they've shaved a couple of mm off the case diameter. The main impact has been to make it "feel" a bit taller than the MM200 but the profile behind the bezel still has a significant under-cut, so it's just as comfortable.

Seiko SPB187J1.
Just landed. I like!
I hope to post some additional photos with comparison to other similar Seikos when I get time.
