The Dive Watch Connection

I like the hands on this a lot better than I did on the Tuna.

Rocking some gold washing the truck.

Wouldn’t that likely break through the coating?

Still couldn’t make up my mind and found Topper has a 25% off sale going on for select watches. Took a hard turn in another direction for a watch I’ve been thinking about for awhile. Instead of an automatic diver on a strap, I figured a gold digital on bracelet should be low key. Not going to lie, r...

Not a diver, but made the cut all week so far

I saw this model last night. In my odd state of indecision on watches I’m now considering one of these instead of another Seiko diver. I love it.

One more day for this one, but looks like my trial and error regulation was very successful. https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20190710/feb319ae7e547be07d007625cfe25884.jpg My trial and error regulation went excellent on mine. With regulation and positional variance if I wore it every day I could ma...

The name alone could make me a buyer.

Looks nice but I don’t know how original it is. The dial looks like an Eterna to me.

I love the bezel mechanism.

Anyone see the MM200 on an ISOfrane before? I’ve looked and can’t find a single picture.

No pics but I tried it. The Iso is to thick. The Scurfa worked better.

That looks damn good. Wavering now while drinking contemplating pulling the trigger.

That is a common issue. If you do not log in there it will not always update. Welcome to the forum also. :cheers: Is it? Why does it seem like no one's replying during the time it's frozen though? And I can't log in, they banned me, lol. Thanks for the welcome! I’ve been banned so many times. When ...

I have a 6.75” wrist. Does anyone here have a shogun with similar wrist size? Please post. Specs of Shogun from googling. “Its case measures 44mm without the crown, has a lug to lug length of 50.75mm, a lug width of 22mm and sits 13.3mm tall.” Thinking about a regular one myself. The size specs doe...

I’m kind of surprised. All of the pictures of the MM300 next to the 6R15 model make the MM300 look like the smaller watch. I do remember the MM300 being a thick watch but otherwise good dimensions. Maybe I’m just coming up with excuses to talk myself out of Seiko. I feel like they got the NAFT righ...

The more I look at the SBDC063 the more I appreciate the fact that Seiko got the hand length right. It always stands out to me when this isn’t right. Definitely looks like it would be perfect on NATOs too.

To this day I just don't get why anybody buys a Rolex wannabe, regardless of price. I'm content wearing an original design Seiko before I'd drop cash on anything like that.

After trying Squale and Steinhart subs I do agree even if Rolex is more than I want to spend.

If you end up with a Shogun get the Crafter Blue fitted rubber. Perfect combo imo and very comfortable. Personally I like the bracelet, but the watch works so well on Natos and canvas you wouldn't miss it. https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20190708/8ab6cc41a5026184fb65898afdef9a6c.jpg I might consid...

I like the watch it’s based on. That’s the nicest I can say.

Always bugs me when the minute hand being an arbitrary length that doesn't align with anything.

Well it definitely pays proper homage to most Seikos.

If I had to choose right now I’m between the Shogun and the new SBDC063. The hands are a bit too short on the Shogun and after having the newer model Tuna I really don’t care for the hands on the 063. Slightly leaning Shogun but even then I’d do the sapphire right away. I honestly pictured all these...

Get this one (pics on a 6.75 wrist) https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20190707/93907866ae42980b8437e867c1cf6409.jpg https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20190707/c3b3d2f029cfe5f60a94f26c7fd37845.jpg I don’t know the model number with seiko new idiotic way of using two different model numbers for the sam...

The SPB077 And SPB079 wear smaller than their specs would suggest. They wear smaller than the turtles imo. I'd also give a sumo a try if you haven't. The case curves in such a way that it wears really well. I find both more comfortable to wear than turtles or even the skx due to the curvature of th...
