That blue one Brice posted looks a million times better. I'm tempted.

I am betting this is typical "hate on the crappy stock Seiko pics" and then when they are actually released 80% of the people here will try one, including me. :rolleyes:
I hope it looks better IRL. And if you can get the cyclop off, a black one would work great on natos.

Not bad but I still hate the cyclops. The indices kinda look like handbells though.

It isn't terrible, but something with the proportions is off...

New smaller Seiko NAFT

By the way the new SRPC23K1 sunray grey dial looks nice and BLNR looking one SRPC25K1

I’m in for a grey one. I just need to figure out where they are going to be sold. This Worn & Wound article says they are JDM only, but the dealer I bought my LE Cocktail Time from says they are not a Japanese model.

I also thought this one stood above the other new releases.

Ok, I know it’s a silly quibble, but I think Seiko budget auto divers should be day-date. 6309, SKX series, NAFT, day-date is part of the style.
