Seiko anyone?

Bt12 · 03-24-2018, 08:58 AM

Does anyone know if the Seiko boutique on Madison give discounts? I’d like to get a sbp051 or 053 but I don’t want to pay $1k. Or for that matter any other Seiko AD’s in midtown nyc that would discount.

ny325 · 03-24-2018, 10:42 PM

I’m sure if you haggle, and are ready to buy. Usually 10% -25% is the magin of a discount.

Hey guys got my super dome sapphire and ceramic bezel insert combination from Daggaz. Would highly recommend it for the skx007.

Everything is in, Just waiting on my submariner beZel from yobokies. It looks amazing already.

Also cheapnatostraps.com straps are definitely higher quality than I expected for $10.

Robin_NL · 04-02-2018, 02:33 AM

I have three Seiko divers, SRP777J1 New Turtle and the two in the picture, sorry for the crap quality picture I took last night.

Interesting is the SPB053J1 to the left is changing date clockwise, the MM300 (017) anticlockwise because they have different movements. 6R15 on the left, 8L35 on the right.
The left one I regulated to running 4s fast/24h, the right one I could not because it has a bathtub monobloc case and you load the movement via the crystal. +6.6s/24h (almost COSC lol)

I'm in the watchbusiness fwiw.

Cheers
Robin

Usually don’t post pics, but this was so pretty felt obligated to do so.

I have been wearing my titanium Landmaster the last couple of days.

david in germany · 04-15-2018, 12:00 PM

This is the one that got me started on Seikos. It was a graduation present from my parents from Basic training in 89.
I have replaced the gaskets, bezel, crystal and put a new bracelet on it.

ny325 · 04-23-2018, 12:14 AM

Anyone wearing the Sarb033? Please tell me if you like this timepiece. Thanks.

ny325 · 05-06-2018, 10:34 PM

Just received my Sarb033, and I love it, I changed the bracelet, and put it on a Barton Navy Blue canvas strap. Looks nice, and simple.

ny325 · 05-12-2018, 01:45 PM

I’m loving my Sarb033 more and more everyday. What a great, quality watch.

david in germany · 05-12-2018, 02:23 PM

Found an original 1981 model 150m Pepsi diver locally for $60. I should have it Tuesday or Wednesday.

ny325 · 05-19-2018, 12:19 AM

The Sarb033 increased in price by $150.00 since I purchased one.

ny325 · 05-19-2018, 10:12 PM

The Seiko Sarb033 is a lot of watch for the price.

JamesWWIII · 06-23-2018, 12:55 PM

My Pepsi-bezel customized Black Monster...

Modding is not just for cars!

Nivarox · 06-24-2018, 10:52 PM

Here's the latest Seiko watches I have got .
One is more dressy while the other is Aviation themed watch. Both look nice

Robin_NL · 11-10-2018, 07:56 AM

I have three Seikos now, SRP777J1, SPB079J1 and this one SLA021J1(SBDX023 in Japan), the new Marine Master.

Cheers
Robin

ny325 · 11-10-2018, 11:52 PM

I wish I could find a new Sarg003. Nice simple watch.

1MOREMOD · 11-11-2018, 12:37 AM

Love the grand seiko in op post. Have skx007, sport 5 and prospex. Would love the grand

D22M2 · 11-11-2018, 01:13 AM

I sold this one a while back…might get another

wspohn · 11-27-2018, 11:20 AM

Picked up a Seiko SSC376 a little while ago. Solar powered, looks vaguely like the vintage watches I usually wear, and keeps excellent time.

Been using it when I don't want to risk my usual (and rare and expensive) Omega for rough jobs.

ny325 · 12-03-2018, 01:28 AM

Just picked up a blue dial turtle at the Seiko headquarters for $145. They had a one day clearance on some Seiko pieces. When I saw the matte blue dial, and blue bezel, it caught my eye. It's a divers watch, so there typically above the 40mm range. However, this one doesn't wear that big in my opinion. Maybe because my wrist size is 7 1/5 inches. I'm not a fan of big watches, my SS Submariner is my size limit. However, I decided to give this watch a try, and the price was right to take a shot at it.
