This watch went on sale on Amazon. Apparently it's lowest price ever. So, I decided to snag one up. I love the colors and the look. I was even more pleased when it showed up Saturday instead of the expected date of Monday too! Will be wearing today!

Here's the link is anyone is interested...

Very cool looking piece!

Looks cool! Like the colors!

TimeToGo · 24 December 2018, 07:06 AM

Thanks for the lead!

Bought one for the son...

Cheers!

Do you like the NATO?

toxicavenger · 24 December 2018, 03:02 PM

I dig the watch! Congrats

Wow, the photo you posted is 10x better than the stock one. Nice pickup.

Some of you guys should get hired by the Seiko ad department!

Nice SEIKO!

Had to get one of these after seeing your post.
Thanks!

Nice strap on it!

That looks awesome on that strap!

milesc2 · 11 January 2019, 02:22 AM

Can't post a link to the strap due to my low post count but it's a cheep one from Amazon.
Good enough quality for the Seiko but I wouldn't want it on a Rolex. Got it for 30 bucks so can't complain.

If you want one search Amazon for "iStrap Calf Leather Watch Strap Quick Release Band Deployant Clasp".

Just placed my order. These pictures, plus the one below taken from ABTW’s review sold me. A/R, cool design, blue, strap monster...if this were an automatic it would be a massive hit. At under $200, it’s a no-brainer. This will be a fun watch to rotate in.

For the price, it surely is a fun piece

scarlet knight · 14 January 2019, 04:22 AM

Got one at a low price, finding it a little hard to read the time.

Art 1 · 14 January 2019, 05:12 AM

That is really nice!!!

scarlet knight · 14 January 2019, 02:09 PM

I found it hard to read the hands indoors, easier outdoors. The date window is unreadable. Just not bonding with it. Have to resort to my other many Seikos!

But if you are enjoying this watch, it is jaunty. I am just a stickler on legibility.

I’m with you, unfortunately. I sent it back today. It’s a very pretty watch, and I really wanted to love it, but I just thought it was a bit large and was hard to read in lower light conditions.

I am replacing it with a green rectangular Seiko Recraft. Should be here in less than a week.

I traded a friend his Urchin. I love the Solar a lot. But, for me it was just the size with my tiny wrist. It just didn't work. If it was scaled down, I'd buy another in a heartbeat!
