Just got my Yokobies "Anvil" bracelet from Harold in Singapore (Yokobies) Gave it a chain lube bath and its like silk! I thinks there still some "shmoo" on it near the bottom left lug. LOL! It takes forever to get the watch clean after that treatment.

I paid extra for the genuine Seiko clasp and it looks soooo much better than that fugly blue rubber strap the 10th Anniversary comes with. Plus that stock strap was big enough to put around my bicep.

I also just took delivery of my black face Neo with the red & black numerals on the silver bezel. 3 and counting!

I purhased my SKX007 in year 2000. My first Automatic watch. A bit too small for my wrist after wearing many 47mm watches. I decided to mod it, purchased a few parts here and there. Just finished modding it yesterday. The only thing original is the main case, crown, movement, and chapter ring. Not too sure if it's still as waterproof as before, I don't have the equipment to test it.

All I have is a baby blue monster but I'm really interested in adding more divers to the collection. These are classics

Excellent photos @zulu123 Mind sharing your lighting setup? Broke my light box a few weeks ago and need to figure out a new solution.

Absolutely love Seiko. SKX007 is one of my all time favorites. Would pick up another one if I could ever figure out which mods I'd want to have done.

Grand Seiko SBGA011 or SBGX115 will most likely be next high end (for me) gen purchase.

Not a diver I guess. My first watch from when I was a teenager. Still runs like a champ and crazy lume.

I need to get a bracelet for my orange monster as I don't much enjoy the rubber strap.

On the road with my Orange Monster. Found it on an auction site for a good price because the bracelet was broken.

That's a good price, I found on online for $345 but not from a site I used or heard before so I'm going to do a bit more research before I pull the trigger. I'm a bit concerned as I feel like my seiko Pepsi won't get much wrist time after turtle Pepsi....but I guess that's called a first world problem ;)
