Current Seiko Collection

I was messing with a watch box today and decided to take a picture of my current collection. To say I am a little heavy in dive watches would be an understatement but I do like the look and the wear. The top row are all SLA's and I will add the SLA039 and the SLA041 once they arrive at my AD. I need a bigger watch box. The only watch missing is my black King Turtle on a bracelet and it is on my wrist. I don't know where this collection goes but this is the best 19 watch Seiko rotation I have ever had, just kidding. It is a little much but it doesn't really matter to me, as I am having fun.

Sick array of Seikos! Fantastic collection! Well earned!

Maybe get a nice 6 slot box and put those 4 Arnies in there and those 2, what appear to look like Marine Masters (or 1 Marine Master and 1 green Sumo?), to round out the 6.

This way you free up spots for what's on your wrist plus the SLA039 and the SLA041 and still have 3 slots left in the big box.

If you get another large box it's gonna kill you looking at the empty spots! Trust me! Even if you get a 12 slot box. So I think a nice, new 6 slotter would be cool and leave you those 3 slots in the big box to round out anything else on your wish list.

Just my $0.02.

I know this feeling. I agree.

Also, easy to know if anything missing.

Great collection OP.

Very nice! I love the Armie's, but if you had to get rid of one, which one would it be?

Sorry if I hijacked 1William’s thread. I thought others would post their collections, too.

Thanks for the kind comments. My favorite right now is the SLA037. I might just be in the honeymoon phase but it is nice. Right behind that are the SPB's with a special interest in the 143.
