New mini-turtle

Thought I’d show this off. Saw it sat in the window this morning. Is a really fantastic size (for me) and for 300 quid is tremendous value.

Rubber strap is extremely comfy.

Will be my holiday pool watch. Am already thinking about picking the black one up.

Enjoy! Bought a Turtle myself. Think it is the best overall Seiko diver choice out there- classic styling.

Perfect little diver. I have a SRP779, it's bigger brother basically and I wear it for work and beating around. Hard to best a Seiko diver for work and play.

39/40 I believe. Wears a little smaller as is roundish. A good size for me although I think I could get away with a normal turtle.

Just picked one of these up (the all blue variety) for a steal I thought at $260. Can’t wait to get it here and wear it. My SKX007 needs a blue brother
