Incoming! Different Dial Than Planned...

I've been wanting another Seiko diver for a while, and really liked the new SPB series releases earlier this year. Of course the limited edition blue dial is sold out everywhere, so I decided to go for the grey dial. After calling around I realized these aren't exactly easy to find.

Long story short, I ended up finding one of these as someone had placed the piece on layaway, and backed out after I had called. Got the call the next morning! The blue is so hard to photograph but in person this is a really unique watch and I couldn't be happier!

I got one! Found it online from a shop in FL. Mailed out to me today. Thanks for the inspiration!
