Turtle Attack !
Picked up this Seiko PADI Turtle.

It feels like a very substantial watch, and I'm enjoying the unique case shape

They’re fantastic watches. Especially at their price. Nothing beats the original 6309, but these come pretty close and with nice upgrades.

Congrats on one of the best diver values out there today.

Love my Turtles! They make great modding platforms too.

Congrast! I’m loving mine, I almost pulled the trigger for the padi but instead went for the more classic diver.

Thanks, guys

I can't say anything bad about the turtles. Quality divers with a nice cushion case. Planning to wear mine on an upcoming trip to the Philippines
