Today I got my new DARTH Tuna !

So a tiny review with a few pics.


The first one had a few issues (misaligned chapter ring, skew & loose date wheel, inaccurate lume). So the watch goes straight back to the shop.

Today was the second attempt.

Now the watch is perfect.


I am really happy to catch one of the last ones of the old TUINA line up.

Love the big & bold hands. Looks more toolish than the new version.

And I prefer the older dial layout.

The SEIKO Tuna stands allone in the big watch world. Unique design & technology.


A real tool !

A Isofrane is cool.
And I like the OEM rubber on that thing.
