Sorry for my poor photo but I just took it as I was walking out the door.
It is Seiko model number SRPB15K1.
The watch is made from 316L Stainless Steel on a folding "H" style bracelet. It has a double flip lock with push button release clasp.
The dial is huge, but the watch is relatively thin on the wrist.
The watch features a 4R36 movement (quick set day and date & hacking) with a display back. This movement should be capable of +/- 5 seconds per day although Seiko will not rate it as being that accurate.
The watch cost $175 including international shipping so you get a lot of value for your dollar with this piece.
I see this as the kind of watch that is great when you want an alluring blue dial sports watch that has wrist presence but you do not wish to wear a high cost item.
Although the watch does not have a screw down crown it is rated to 100m water resistant which should serve all aquatic purposes except scuba diving.
The crystal is Hardlex but I do not think it has anti-reflection treatment, but not sure about that as yet.
The blue dial is metallic and catches the light from any angle, so its a real eye-catcher, hence why it caught my eye.

Enjoy!!
