I’ve never owned a Seiko. I’ve been a collector of mostly Rolex sports models, but I’ve also Omega, Panerai, Tudor, and a several others. Only watch I’ve ever regretted flipping was my 42mm Omega Planet Ocean in titanium. That watch was so incredibly comfortable. That being said, I tried on my buddy’s Seiko SBDC029 and it was even more so, but I didn’t like the large X on the dial so I went on the hunt and found this SBDC007 beauty. In almost mint condition with the MM ratcheting clasp, black date wheel, and domed sapphire. I put my SD43 on this morning and it felt like a cinder block so I threw this back on. So far sooo good.

Thanks, all! I'm really enjoying it so far. It's running at +2/day so I'm very pleased with that. I've been very fortunate that all of my watches have run slightly fast than slow, other than my Panerai which was the worst high-end watch I've ever owned. That thing ran over 30 seconds slow every day.
