still saving up for the Bad Boy (Deep Sea) to keep my "more fragile" AK company

so to feed my "want" for new watches but not dig in much on the Deep Sea Piggy bank, i collect (well not really) solid daily beaters that don't cost an arm and a leg. I got a Black Monster (thank you TRF!!! i never knew it existed prior to reading posts here)! Absolutely enjoying it!!!!

i have a few more listed like the Orient Makos, Prometheus (though they are a bit snobbish),etc. But while i was surfing, i came across this beauty!

here are a few specs:
Ref. No: Seiko SNZG15K1
Diameter w/o crown: 42mm
Diamter with crown: 45mm
Lug width: 22
Thickness: 12mm.
Caliber: Seiko cal. 7S36 auto with quickset day date, no hacking nor manual winding
Case: Stainless Steel (with Sand Blasted Finish); See-through case back; WR100m.
Bracelet/Strap - 22mm wide straight Nylon strap.

nice one! Looking good!

That watch is pretty cool Dean,be sure and take some wrist shots when you get it in!

ess45 · 16 May 2010, 07:07 AM

I'm sure you will be happy. I am with mine. Mine is brush finish with bracelet.

Here's mine with his brother.

Deyn Man · 16 May 2010, 10:26 AM

sweet!!! and here's the clincher! got it for $113!!!!

everose · 16 May 2010, 04:51 PM

Great find Dean....i am so happy for you.

The ss bracelet version had much more heft than i imagined it would....which the pics do not convey....it really surprised me!!!!

How they make such quality at this price simply blows my mind?

The ratio of 45mm w/ crown ....TO.... Lug width 22mm....is perfect for this design IMO.

This is Seiko at its very best,...functional,...simple,....reliable,quality. ... more than you expect.....without any unnecessary bling,....AT UNIMAGINABLE PRICES!!!!

The > $500 market in general is on fire right now!!!!!!!

Congrats and wear in good health

I got this one last week. I saw a picture of it elsewhere on the internet and it looked pretty good. It looks even better in real life. Solid automatic watch with a heavy brushed stainless steel bracelet.
I am sure you will like it when yours turns up.

ess45 · 29 June 2010, 07:16 AM

Just got the khaki version together with another Seiko (White Knight). A relative on vacation there (Philippines) bought these for me. First thing I did was change the strap.

jcherskine · 29 June 2010, 07:27 AM

The Khaki version looks good with the brown strap

Now part of the family with 2 brothers.
