Seiko SKX007 - Anybody have pics?

Thinking of getting one of these little values. Love that off center crown and for around $180 new from Blue Dial - I'm liking this watch.

Anybody have one - recommend or have pics?

Here ya go. Mine has gone through hell and back - with my toddler dropping it so many times onto the steel bath tub. I even stepped on it and the jubilee braclet links came off. I fixed it up in a jiffy.

Oh and the lume is GREAT.

Just get one off ebay from Singapore. I did.

Also, there are two variations. skx007j (japan only, what I have) and skx007k (rest of the world). The only difference is the dials are ever so slightly different.

Inspired by Mik, here's mine with a Sub to compare it to. They are really nice looking watches, solid as a rock and great value for money.

True Steve, I had the TAG for 10 years but passed it on to my best friend when I bought my Sub. He's always liked it. It's a great watch for a quartz model.
