Nice collection! You need a Turtle box, too! ( I suspect that you have one).

I love the Samurai watches. I think the true crown jewel is the older Titanium Samurais that were released about a decade ago. Great pieces if you can find them.

Agreed. The Ti versions are nice. But hard to source. I tried. Found one in Brazil but decided against pulling the trigger. Too many ifs.

Wow, did you build this collection just for the joke in the thread title? That is dedication! We need a Seiko diver called the "Splinter" so I can do Four Turtles and Splinter lol.

Actually no. But was amused to find out one day i had seven.

Wanted to stay at seven but a client gifted me with two more.

Started with the blue lagoon (bought together with the turtle variant). Those two were my first seiko prospex divers. I thought them to be robust pieces that would still be ticking when my sons come of age.

Then it just grew from other. As much as possible i bought the turtle and samurai as a pair. For my two sons.

Man you love those Seikos.

How do you decide which one to wear each day?

Your outfit? Psychic vibes?

Since we are on a rolex forum, my answer is - i wear my rolex.

Seriously, it’s all about what i feel that day. And sometimes what i wear has an effect on what i feel.

There are times when my watch complements or supplements my outfit. There are times when my watch is a statement piece.
