I'm not laughing at you, I'm laughing with you As much as there's truth to what you say, I think there'd be a Tudor sub forum first. I'm a big Seiko fan too. I have three

I motion that we should amend the main banner to reflect this importance.
All in favour of The Rolex Forums…Pens Matter, say “Aye”.

Yes please. I recently purchased a SRP779 as a new summer beater and it is amazing. I can't find one flaw and after 2 weeks, it is still keeping perfect time.

This has made me interested in owning more Seiko's in the future.

We're well beyond just a Rolex forum at this point.

As a huge Seiko fanboy I would like to see this happen, but I can understand that it is hard to do and might not happen because of it.

If 60% of members want one I think I could put a case forward.

I have seven.

An old fav.from the 80's?

Being this is the Rolex forum I think it's fine just the way it is.

Then again the mods needs to justify the high salary they have here so why not dump some extra workload on them?

Let's not stop at just Seiko, there are numerous other brands we could have sub sections for.

While I'm at it, perhaps we can also change the name to: The Watch Forum?

Grand Seiko/Seiko sub would be a great addition. Imagine discussing watches that you can actually buy when you want.

As mentioned in the pics thread, it was a unanimous 'yes' from the mods, but thanks go mainly to Steve (Lol-x) for the final decision, setting up the new Seiko Forum and loading hundreds of previous Seiko threads from many years past.
