That looks a bit of a beast. I like it but wonder whether my 'athletic'/girly wrists are man enough to carry that off.
As Figaro says, that's a very decent spec for half thread.
Here's how mine looks on my barely 7" wrist:As Figaro says, that's a very decent spec for half thread.
Not too bad I think, and even better on a Nato strap:

I bought one a few weeks ago and put it on a vintage tropic trap, I like it. My first entry into this thread, I'm a newbie in the watch section but I love a good watch.

Some more love for Seiko here, this was around £160 on Amazon. I've stuck it on a cheap Citizen strap for now but it definately deserves something nicer. Seiko provided a nice green NATO but I find that adds extra height to the watch.
Also props to Seiko for putting a textured dial on a cheap Seiko 5

There are a lot of Seikos I like too, but they seem to me to be getting more expensive in general.
Agreed, prices are have jumped quite a bit last few years and the QC on some of the pricier models has been a bit shoddy. They have come out with countless models and re-releases....don't get me wrong nice watches especially the divers and I think there is still good value in the Seiko 5 range but prices are creeping away and dont see that changing anytime soon.Bobberoo said:

There’s lots of very bad influences around here.
I’ve been told by the Wife that I can’t play with them anymore
She also tells me I can’t buy an original Sturmanskie Ocean, as apparently owning more watches than days in the month is “obsessive”
I think she’s just being boring.
