Incoming PADI Turtle
Decided that I needed something with more color than my black-dialed Sub, Explorer, Speedmaster, and SKX007. Also cool since I'm PADI-certified. This is a great value for a watch that's only a few hundred bucks.

Congrats on the Turtle! Those are an amazing value. I have a self modded 779 that's a favorite. Mine runs +1 sec per day when worn.

Congrats! I love mine so much I bought 2, I also swapped in the Strapcode super Jubilee and Marine Master 300m clasp which transformed it.

Belated congrats. I'm going to Nagasaki next month, and hoping to find a nice JDM Turtle when I'm there.
