looking good! I see at least one of these in my future. Looks like it may actually have solid end-links?

I hope some of the aftermarket 6309 bracelets work for this because the faux 5-piece bracelet they are showing kills it for me. I realize most will just go NATO.

773, yes. I'll have to see live pics of the 775 first to make a move on that one

I love all four. Home run for Seiko, especially if they're going to be priced as low as rumored.

According to that link it's 419 euro on rubber, so around $450 USD. So about $100 more than the SKX list, which seems reasonable given the upgrades. Aside from the movement, it seems to have the new improved Seiko rubber.

If street price lands around $300, then an easy winner.

Oh Yeah, I'm thinking 777. For some reason, the 6309 is more of a strap watch to me. Canvas or aged leather looks good on that watch.

Between these and the new dial Oris, 2016 is looking realllly good so a far.
I like both the Blue and Black dials.....Depending on price, I just may be foolish enough to get both

773 for now but if the price is between $250-300 I'll likely get the 775.

Did anyone else notice how nice these look as Seiko catalog shots which typically look like shit? That blue on the 773 looks great! I'm excited for these!
