61 Seiko Silverwave

Post by 3cGT » Fri Oct 27, 2017 8:07 am

Just got this in the mail today. I previously had a later 30m Silverwave that I did sell & regret. Very happy with this starburst 61. With the white inner ring it wears bigger on the wrist and the white tropic strap finishes it off beautifuly. Crazy dial is more dress watch than tool. I love it

Thanks all, the white strap really sealed the deal for me, and that it
wears bigger than the later silverwave with the black inner bezel makes
me super happy. Cheers
