Seiko Orange Monster - Let's see 'em!
I just received mine not too long ago from TRFer GoreX5 (Tony). Here is a pic of it, and I am wearing it today. I love how comfortable it is especially with the crown in the 4 o'clock position. Until my baby returns (SS Sub Date), I think I'll be wearing this. For the price, it's a great watch. However, the finish is definitely not quite up to what you get in a Tag, much less a Rolex, but it is very comfortable and easy to read.
Let's see your Seiko Monsters! OrangeMonster.jpg

What I like about Seiko is that they are heavy ... I've recently gotten addicted to Invictas also, they make mean chronographs.

Try it on a Seiko Rubber strap. It's wicked comforatble. I put the bracelet for one day few days and realized how comfy the rubber and Nato are. Good luck with them
Sunday is my favorite day to wear it Sorry but I don't have a good pic of it on the rubber.

Great pics! I do have the black faced one with the rubber strap, but I'm thinking about getting a Nato for it, or gifting it to a friend. I haven't quite decided yet. I'll see how I feel once I get my Rolex back.

Maybe the best value Dive Watch in the World
I was in search of a respectable quality, everyday watch,which i would not have to worry about the knocks of everyday wear,was durable,good quality and not priced so high that i would worry about it.
Hello Black Monster!!!!!! No gimmicks,built to last,good quality/price,outlasts fashions,has everything you need and nothing you do not need. I think its the perfect everyday watch....only very minor niggle:wish i could hand wind it..but thats the ONLY thing i can find to improve upon.Amazing. Seiko Rule!!!!! |

I put mine on a NATO just because.
I like other Seiko divers and there are bigger ones but smaller is better?
