The latest addition to my Seiko box...... LOVE IT!!

I picked this king samurai today!
I absolutely love it! It’s a lot of watch for the money!
Sapphire crystal
Ceramic bezel
Hacking movement
Beautiful waffle dial
Great lume
Super comfortable strap
Very nicely designed case

I foresee it taking a lot of my wrist time!

Glad you enjoy it! I like the hour marker at 3pm which one can see through the dare window/cyclops.

Congratulations Doc! Is the number in your Seiko box going to outnumber your Rolex box someday?

That would be a healthy competition between the boxes

I generally take one or two pictures of a watch and put it in my photo album of watches.So I don’t take pix every day. I have a 1 in 31 chance of getting it right.

Put a Strapcode bracelet on the samurai. Nice fit and finish and matches the watches sharp edges. Makes it look higher quality compared to the rubber strap from seiko.

I really like this watch and NEED a nice white dial, and I love my green King Turtle waffle dial.

I only wish this one had the waffle bezel to match. I really enjoy both of these attributes on the King Turtle.

Tried it on today and really liked it. I’ve sold 2/3 Rolexes with the Batman going soon and I’m leaning towards this Seiko over the Omega Aqua Terra as my new daily watch. I’m not wearing the rolexes much these days and seems crazy for them to live in a safe.
