Save The Ocean

I liked this one when it came out. My Padi Turtle has some competition now

Very nice!

Check out Strapcode’s Hexad bracelet. I have no commercial interest in it, but it looks great on my Blue Lagoon Samurai.

Thank you I noticed it’s shorter than the Seiko bracelet. Not sure if it’ll fit my 8-1/4” wrist 🧐

I do have a small wrist (6.5)

I removed a couple of links and moved the micro adjustments closer. I guess Strapcode says how long they are. Thanks for looking at it.

This forum seriously needs a “like” button...or 5 in the case of this Seiko. Nice one!

The Save the Ocean watches are very cool and I own the Turtle you just acquired. I like the bezel color as I think it sets it off against the case. Mine gets a lot of wrist time and I enjoy it more on sunny days as the light really plays on the dial. Congratulations.

For me these blue dials look awesome and I fee Seiko are really creating some great colourways.
What do you folks think of the ‘grey dawn’ versions of the turtle and samurai?

I love my save the ocean. I got the hexad band and loved it more. Today I felt like taking a little risk and got some compound and a dremel and polished my center links. I think it looks great. It’s now my knockoff “submariner”

Sorry. Not sure why that image posted 3 times. Tapatalk was a little glitchy.

I just picked one of these up yesterday! Taking a trip to surf trip to Nicaragua in July and don't want to take anything too expensive.

So cool to see you fellows here enjoying it

Kawirider inspired me to put my Samurai on a Hexad.

Thanks again!
