Incoming Seiko

Received this Friday courtesy of Hodinkee... have a soft spot for Seikos and think they did a really nice job on this LE. The enamel deep blue dial is gorgeous and the case proportions work really well. My only gripe is the strap and deployant - they could have executed this better. Didn’t take me long to swap it out for a B&S blue strap which I think works well with it .

Congrats on the Seiko! One of my favorite brands and the one that hooked me on this hobby. Wearing my Sumo LE today.

Congrats! Seiko's Presage line consistently turns out some some great watches for the money. I love that they're offering lacquer and enamel dials at a relatively accessible price point.

I like the look of the presage line but not a leather man myself
