Seiko NH35 work horse and solid steel watch. Should last just as good as any other?
Sent from my iPhone using TZ-UK mobile app
After 4 months of daily wearing mine is running at a steady +1½ to 2 secs/d also. Changed the strap from the rubber to a Gecko Cordura and the watch is really hard to fault.
It’s a beast! The head is heavy and the quality is incredible for the money. Crown and bezel action are very good and everything lines up as it should. Initial thoughts of the bracelet are that I’m not blown away by it. The quality is better than I was expecting but I’m not keen on the oversized links. All in all it’s a stunner.
Got this through the post today
First impressions is good put it on strap I had as the leather one it came on felt hard, but the rubber strap included also seems lovely and soft but thought it try it on this first.

Anyone found a source for brass or bronze buckles? After one in 20 to match my bronze Steeldive bronze SD1965

Thanks Julian, much appreciated. Glad you like it and I'm leaning towards steel, so even better!!Sent from my SM-G973F using TZ-UK mobile app
Thanks for posting this up Strell, looks great and glad it is living up to expectations.

Not bad lume, but It doesn’t seem to last long at all, whether just not had enough exposure yet
Quite heavy but suppose that’s the bronze
Early days but not 100% sure on it yet. Il give it a few days before deciding if it will appear on SC

I've never looked a these before now, but after seeing this thread i took a look at their site. The bronze PAM sub would allow me to scratch a couple of itches in one go. The photoson the site make the finishing look rough! Anyone tried one?
Looks great on that strap. Must admit I'm not much of a bracelet on a diver fan. Sent from my VOG-L29 using TZ-UK mobile app
Really cannot fault my Emperor Tuna homage Steeldive SD1978.
Very good lume, I just wish they had matched the colour better of the bezel with the face. But only notices when lit up. Triggers my OCD a little.
Put mine up for sale in SC if anyone wants it
Just bronze/gold isn’t for me
Love the dial and wish they did this in steel case with this dial and bezel

Having bought the 300m Tuna, I'm thinking of the Green Hulk. Anyone got one or the black version to comment on?
A shame - I had attachment issues with it as well at the start but have come round to it's charms - most of the watches I don;t immediately gel with have benefited from a strap change.
Did you see the 2 other versions of the steel bodied ff on steeldives uk site? I quite like the look of the one with the humidity marker on it which seems to have the vintage lume colour too.

Anyone can set this to whatever they want. It's much better to click on the post number for the direct link, and post that. Or use "quote" which automatically adds a link back to the original post. Not sure if either of them work the same in the app though.

Ahh, thanks!
Good choice, the SD Sumo is a cracking watch. In fact I've just ordered the SD Mm300 too Sent from my VOG-L29 using TZ-UK mobile app
The bracelet is standard Steeldive engineers type stainless steel

Bought as a test to see if the proper mm300 would be too much for me.
Don't think it will so now I need to decide between the mm300, superocean 42 or the black bay steel.
This is very nice in its own right though
Got this in a trade today, quite like it tbh see how it fairs
