The Seatimes arrived at last! We like 'em. These are impressive chunks of steel. Heavy but comfortable. The 22mm bracelet balances the heavy case quite well. I was very happy to see so many removable links (and screw constructed which I love - hate push pins) as I had to remove 6 for my wife!!

So, here is #6 of 50, of the special edition pink dial on my wife's wrist:

And the black one for me:

We got a spare black bezel as well (thanks Jörg) which will look good on both watches. One of the things I love is the screw in bracelet attachment. I like to change back and forth between straps and bracelets and this will make it super easy, ala Panerai. That's just great design!

I'll take some proper pics this w/e when I have more time.

Great looking watches, Bruce. BTW, your wife has such a beautiful looking hand!!!

So we now know where that cute little fella of yours gets his complexion from!!!

Nice Bruce. Enjoy! But come on... we know you really are wearing the pink one today, right?

padi56 · 23 December 2005, 11:25 PM

LMAO tosspot

Ok, I did try it on when I was sizing it for her. I'm either not man enough or not camp enough to wear it....can't decide which

Cheers Ed! The black dial on mine has got to be one of the best dials I've seen. The rest of the watch fits it's price point. Nothing fancy, just sturdy and well made. But that dial is a real piece of work

Nice! How big are these watches, Bruce?

A good endorsement. Does it wear like the BM given they're they same size?

Yeah I think so. I don't think this one is quite as thick, or at least in appearance. If the braelet had the same clasp as the BM it would be perfection!!

Nice job! I'd love to see one in the flesh, so I guess I'll have to visit the UK and look you up sometime.

Tyler - if you are going to be a man wearing pink, you must not call it pink....calling it coral allows you to retain some of your manhood while not looking like you have any......

Dude, someone your age using the word "attire" even scares me

You are obviously mature well beyond your age. Just lay off the old man golf attire, OK

Nice watches Bruce.

Gotcha Bruce.

I've tried to lay off the golf clothes once and everybody at the Country Club gave me strange looks. It was awesome!
