My Monster may have died...

[The GMT Master]

...but it doesn't mean I've gone off Seikos! So much so, my brand new one arrived today! I've gone for the Monster's little brother, the so-called Mini Monster, or officially, the Seiko 5 Diver's watch, ref. SNZF49J1. Gone for an orange one, this time, and it looks great, really fun. Fit and finish is impressive, although the bracelet, which looks deceptively similar to the full-fat Monster's, seems to be a little lighter, and lacks a diver's extension link. However, this also has a display case back, which is a nice touch, and features the 7S36 movement inside

I also picked up a 16 piece watchmakers toolkit (cost me £3.50 plus P&P, bargain!), which meant the bracelet was a doddle to resize. Overall, I'm smiling like the Cheshire Cat at the moment!

Here's a (frankly awful) picture from my Blackberry, I can't find the cable for my good camera at the moment
