Anyone else have a Seiko diver as a daily wearer?
Hey guys! Here's my daily wearer.... a Seiko SRP777. Is there anyone else who wears a Seiko diver as their go to watch?

My only Seiko is a a Seiko 5, but it's not a daily wearer, though I'm very fond of it.
It just takes a backseat to everything else, some of which don't get a lot of wear either. It seems I'm always honeymooning with a new watch. Maybe it's time to stop adding new watches.

When I am traveling to places where I am not comfortable wearing a Rolex I wear my blue Sumo.
Oh, and if it is too shady for a Seiko, I wear a Vostok Amphibia. Oh, and if it is really shady, no watch at all... |

I have a mid size and full size diver. I used to wear them more but I still strap 'em on from time to time.

I am a big Seiko fan and utilize my SRP779 to exercise with and I will use it some this summer to swim in. For the money, fit and wear, a great watch.

wear a grand seiko quartz diver. nicely made and don't have to worry about it. the *only* thing about it is i purchased it as a subtle watch but everyone mistakes it for a rolex despite the ticking.

Just bought myself a used SRP Monster with the red outlined markers and hands. Don't wear it daily, but its a fantastic piece that I find myself putting on much more than I expected to.

I have 3 I switch back and forth with. My 6139 sees the most wrist time.

Not exactly a daily wearer, but it sees frequent duty.
So did this one, until I sold it, which I now regret. Will probably own it again.

I got a Seiko SKX007 as a bit of an experiment to see how I get along with divers and it has been my daily wearer since the battery in my Breitling went flat. Quality is great for the money (though noticeably lower than the Marinemaster) and the accuracy is ridiculous; I've been monitoring it with WatchCheck on my phone for almost a month and the average rate is +0.6 sec/day!

I have been wondering if I should get a 009 as a beater... can't decide if I want one or a wave dial blue seamaster.
My watch box doesn't contain anything I want to bash around at the moment but I don't want to exceed 8 watches so its tricky. |

I have the SRP775. Great watch for the money and no worries about getting it scratched.
