Very impressive, but what's that overlap on the small hour hand?

Prince · 15 April 2007, 07:55 AM

What's the dial size? It looks smaller in the photo than other SEIKO Dive watches...

This is an interesting model (to me). Foremost, it winds and hacks. I own a 7S26 powered Seiko and rarely wear it due to the lack of. Though a bit more expensive, this Prospex SBDC-003 looks intriquing. My only complaint would be the massive case and 20mm (guessing) lugs. Band doesn't blend well with the case at the lugs. JMHO but could be wider. Other than that, lovely looking watch.

I like the crown at 4pm. Nice!

That is one fine looking Seiko!

Well I recently purchased a Black Monster. I was looking at some of the models similar to that posted in this thread, but I decided that if I was going to get a dive watch, I didn't want one that was essentially a copy of the Submariner.

Also, I agree that it needs a bigger bracelet to match the bigger case.

Nice Seiko

Lots of luck with it

bwalkerVintage · 17 April 2007, 02:51 AM

I think it looks great too!

Just reread my earlier post, wasn't try to bash it at all!!

You can see the way Seiko handled the bigger size with the Black Monster strap - I think it was a good tactic that could have been applied to this watch as well.

Let us know how the accuracy is on the new watch!!
