Hi,

Yes I got mine in the uk from https://www.creativewatch.co.uk/prod...srpb09k1-watch

Great service!

Hopefully you'll find an online retailer and you'll certainly enjoy the watch.

Very nice timepiece, congrats to everyone who has it. One question though...

how it the samurai compared to the turtle blue lagoon?

which is more preferable in wrist comfort and style?

I find the name a little ridiculous, like all 40 something I remember the Brooke Shields film and can't see what it does with 'samourai' to be honest lol

The original model, which was fairly short lived, had hands that to some resembled samurai swords, and owners gave it that nickname.

Seiko listened to their customers and reissued it, and used the colloquial name that the watch was given by its fans.

I'm still waiting on mine.

I like the monster hour hand When it overlaps with the minute hand, it forms a rocket. See three pictures above.

Had mine for a week already, and I'm very satisfied with it. It's a well built watch for its price.

The blue on the face of this watch is mesmerizing. The lume will satisfy my fellow lume junkies.
