I never really like the idea of ordering from ebay personally, this time I find one directly from amazon with extra 10% off.

Not bad for 135 shipped.

can't wait...

Congrats. Seiko are great time pieces!

Congratulations, Ken. I have one and love it. You'll be able to use the lume on that baby to find your way around in the dark!!!

I bough a couple, one with bracelet and one with rubber strap - great value and they double as a reading lamp.

Also bought a Seiko kinetic (5M62) - the lume is not as good as the monster but a minute of shaking runs it for about 3 months.

Doesn't it have a winder Eddie?

You got THAT right, Eddie!

Nice looking tool watch! Sieko is probably the best deal out there.

idoitsavant · 16 June 2007, 11:08 AM

Why not wait for one which has the improved 6R15 movement?
From recent reviews of the new movement, it runs at +2-3s/day after breaking in. That is a major improvement over the 7S25 or 7S26 movement which gains at least 10s per day.

Hi Steve,

No winder and the instructions say to shake it so I am building a big shaker right now.

This kinetic beast weight 192 grams (28% heavier than my SD) but look at the size of the bracelet.. The lume is not as good as the monster.
Accuracy is as per quartz.

Nice! To me that's a "tool" watch...But be careful...You may like it so much that you may end up with a monster collection:

Great collection!!!

Seiko is the most reliable and accurate watch that I have ever owned. My mother bought me a Seiko automatic for my 12th birthday and so many decades later, it is still working like a charm. I went swimming with it, I banged it around a lot and to this date it still looks brand new. That watch is almost scratch proof. Thoughout the years, I received a lot compliments from strangers what a good looking watch it was.

Well Done , Seiko Are Great . I am Getting Two This Year INCLUDING a Black Monster.
