Liked the look of these when they were released, but they were quite popular here and often out of stock.

Saw this one yesterday with a good discount and my go to online retailer not only price matched but beat the discounted price. So it was a no brainier.

Bought yesterday afternoon. Delivered 11 am this morning.






Sized and on the wrist 5 minutes later



Initial thoughts. Quite thick but wears smaller than it’s 42mm suggests. Short lug to lug helps. Extremely comfortable and the bevelled crystal and haldex bezel insert are nice touches.

The dial is darker than the last pic suggests but is well finished with metal surrounds to the lume indices. Chapter ring is slightly misaligned to the dial but not enough to bother me. It’s pretty much a lower end Seiko standard feature anyway.

Quality wise I’d say it’s pricing (pre discount) is spot on so id have been happy if I’d paid full retail. Having got a decent discount and free next day delivery I’m more than happy with it.

Have a great weekend everyone.
