Anyone into Seiko divers?

[Kasatura]

Love my two Seikos.

I have the SSC Chronograph and the SKX009. Really beautiful and fantastic watches.

SKX007/009 are one of the best affordable gen watches money can buy!
Espcially on a jubilee! Enjoy it mate!

The new kinetics are great watches...much better than kinetics of years past. The SKX is classic, uses the in house 7S26 movement which is a fantastic piece for the price...I have literally rebuilt hundreds of these. If you really want a good value Seiko, check out their Prospex divers...Orange monster and the Turtle re-issue are 2 classics...plus you get the new in house movement that also hacks and hand winds.

Agree with everything. BUT generation 1 and 2 orange monsters are rapidly becoming quite expensive to buy in the market.

This was the best Orange Monster they made...shark tooth dial. The new monster with the cyclops just looks horrible.

Is had and sold generation 1. I now own generation 2 like pictured above. I actually liked generation 1 better. I a green the new gen3 isn't as attractive

I haven't worn this in months. I need a new strap for it, I don't like this OEM rubber.

This one is going up for sale. Great watch but just isn't comfortable on my wrist.

How's the quality on the sharky?

Very good. I actually bought 5 all together. The black PVD tuna, 2 brushed Tunas, a turtle and have the MM300 on the way. I'm going to list the extra tuna here for sale in a moment.

My first dive watch when I joined the Navy in 1970. Wore it through BUDS and until I got to the teams and was issued a Benrus Mil-50717. Now that was a no frills but bad ass dive watch. They fetch a fortune now I think. If you can find one. The Jap movements are indestructable. I still had my Seiko when my son graduated from Army boot camp. I gave it to him to wear to Iraq. It's still running strong.

Check this out bud.

Not a Seiko, it's a Benrus ,Milspec, Navy issue for UDT and Seal team members in the 70's.
