My favorite is this new Marinemaster, also on a strapcode bracelet.

would have to be my sla033 apocalypse now.
epic design, thin(ish) proportions, great movement, great(ish) finishing, great history

It’s worth picking one up

jatco · 27 March 2020, 10:26 AM

Guess right now its my recently acquired Presmatic...
..adding to other Seiko threads...

The SKX013 is my favourite, I still wear it more than my Rolex and at 38mm it fits me better than my 007.

Pw92676 · 28 March 2020, 03:12 AM

This is my only Seiko. I love it. For all my watches I always think “this could be my only watch and I’d be happy.” This one is no different.

Stud Screw · 29 March 2020, 10:30 AM

I’m intrigued by the baby turtle. Have never seen it in the metal, but photos I’ve seen look incredible

SLA021 is the apex predator of the non-GS models.

2nd gen monster for sure. Love the tooth shaped markers.

Amochosto · 5 May 2020, 07:42 AM

I love my Seiko Samurai SRPC93 Save The Ocean. I love the unique angular shape of the case, I love that the bezel and crown are darker colour than the case, I love the dial (bezel insert could be better though) and on a dark night you could almost use the lume as a flashlight. I’d be camping outside of the Seiko store to pay Grand Seiko prices if they would do a Samurai watch with Grand Seiko bracelet, movement and finishing.

pickettt · 5 May 2020, 08:02 AM

I couldn’t even begin to choose.

mmalek1 · 5 May 2020, 09:23 AM

Easy for me. My one and only. Alpinist on a ginault adjustable bracelet.

Ditto. I have about 18 vintage that I love over anything modern. I need to group them all for a photo shoot.

mongrelnomoad · 5 May 2020, 09:18 PM

This one - KS4420-9990 Chronometer.

It's just so perfect: the dead brand, the proportions, the *only* KS with a gold chronometer lion medallion, the one watch becoming another (----> GS44), the unique arrow seconds, the future of the movement, the exquisitely detailed simplicity of the design...

I'm still hoping that Seiko uses the 60th anniversary of GS to re-release new recreations of some of their greatest hits. New, warrantied versions of these timeless classics would have me hammering on the doors their stores...

I happened to hear that they were discontinued back in the spring and decided to pick one up right around the holidays.

I love the way it wears. The lume is outstanding and I cant put my finger on it ... but it just makes me smile every time I wear it.

I agree with this 100%. I’ve had my 009 for almost 5 years, it’s been everywhere with me. I love swimming and snorkelling with it. It’s a watch I will always keep.

I wish they'd just kept the SKX as-was, and dropped in a the newer, hacking, manual-winding movement. Such a great watch and the new Prospex/5 replacements just don't hit the right spot...

There's a certain charm to the SKX ... shake, rattle and roll

Loving mine and wearing it today

I just received the SLA035 and am in a honeymoon phase. Probably still the SLA033 but the SLA035 is taking a lot of wrist time now.

JesseBertone · 8 May 2020, 08:29 AM

It's really hard to narrow it down to just 1

icnbne · 8 May 2020, 09:37 AM

a toss up between my SLA019 and SLA033
seiko i wear the most would be SKX013

On strapcode. Love it!

Sarb017 Alpinist. My first mechanical watch, its what made me like watches. Will never forget when I took it out of the box, flipped it over to look at caseback, then flipped back to the dial and the second hand was moving. Then I stared at the green dial for like 5 minutes in a sunbeam.

stockae92 · 11 May 2020, 02:09 PM

This is my recent favorite Seiko (that is not a GS)

Its really great for daily wear, comfortable enough even for smaller wrist size, decent lume.

Rags · 24 May 2020, 07:50 AM

This Seiko Presage. I’m someone who likes simplicity in watch dials and this is just perfect.

My Lord Marvel 5740-8000, beating at 36,000 A/h.

It's a shame I already sold it at very low price, only $250 :(

Kohola · 12 June 2020, 09:35 AM

I have a few favorites, here's one. - my Dad's old 6105 serviced by Spencer Klein. Currently on a toxic NATO, also have an uncle Seiko waffle.
