Seiko mini Turtle released
Seiko just released a mini Turtle (JDM), seems like a cool alternative to people like me with a smaller wrist.

nice one, my SRP775 is far too large on my skinny wrists - its like strapping on an alarm clock - will definitely consider this new model.

Yes, and then no. I do like the smaller size, with my skinny wrists, but I wonder if this is just enough of difference from the Turtle to make it not interesting. For example, one of the aesthetically pleasing design elements of the Turtle is the crown position, these guys don't have that.
I'm still favouring this one, the OG.

Not sure. I got mine at Long Island Watch. Japan model. Check their website. I've only had it about 6 months.

It's amazing to me how the guys in the Boutique don't have any information on this, surely you were not the first person to ask. In any event I don't believe NY or the US will see these as I believe they are JDM only. So you'll have to order via one of the importers. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

As above, Seiya is well known and I'm sure many here have purchased from there. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

Hmm, I thought the original press coverage said JDM only. I think Google is your most reliable source at this point. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

I know this is a bit of an old thread, but I'm loving the look of these so far. I liked the turtle a lot, but felt they were a little too large. This is the perfect size IMO
