Seiko tictac just came in

Post by tmw » Sat Sep 28, 2019 10:58 am

I like it.

It is everything the alpinist should be. And without that internal bezel that moves when you look at it.

This design...with the blue or green alpinist dial would be great.

Usual seiko bracelet...

I bought a cheap watch from a crazy man
Floating down canal
It doesn't use numbers or moving hands
It always just says now
Now you may be thinking that I was had
But this watch is never wrong

Love it.

If I had known it was going to be available I would have asked my wife’s family to snag one.

I just got mine. I also wish it had no date, it would be perfect. I think if I keep it long term I might look into swapping the date wheel out for a black one. But overall I really like it, it does have sort of a vintage Explorer feel, which is what drew me to it in the first place.
