Seiko Tuna can series
Seiko Tuna can series
Hello! And HELP! I'm having problems getting current information about Seiko's "Tuna" series of watches. Problem one - you cannot buy one in Chicago; so I cannot go ask a sales person about it. Problem two - I cannot read Japanese. Problem three - I cannot find detailed information/reviews on the internet. So it is to YOU, the DWC family, I humbly turn to for enlightenment. What Tuna watches are in production today? And what is the difference between the SBD watches, and the SBBN watches. Thank you for any assistance. Biggbuzz

Welcome Michael.
Google you will find loads of info on Tuna's especially on forums like SCWF and WUS Seiko forums.
But I'll try answer some quickies here.
SBDX are auto's and SBBN are quartz.
You can almost buy any Tuna off preowned sales forums or ebay with some patience, luck and finances.
I believe 015, 017 SS tuna's, Darth, Emperor, and SpringDrive Tuna, are all available for sale new.
Buy from one of the three amigo's, Higuchi, Chino, Seiya.
Also in the US, AD's such as AZFineTime, contact Joe as he may be able to facilitate your request.
This chart will give you specs on almost all the shrouded divers out there.
Good luck.

Re: Seiko Tuna can series
Because of the low yen right now the Tuna market is hot so it's pretty hard to find one right now. Most of the dealers I've looked at are sold out including rakuten and shoppinginjapan.net. As far as research goes I would start with the sbbn017 and sbbn015 and go from there. Both of these models are the stainless versions and both are in production. Enjoy.

Wow, sounds great. Can I simply send you my SS# and bank account information?hasseb432 wrote:Up for sale is my Bremont SM500. This is a great little watch from one of the best up and coming companies in the business. My watch features the deep blue dial. I've owned the black/green, black, and blue dial variants and this is my favorite. It works well for casual use or can be dressed up some. My watch was purchased in 2012. It isn't a safe queen, but it is in nice condition and wears well on the wrist
