I have a memory of seeing a "white monster" somewhere online, but I can't seem to find it again. It may have been photoshopped, or modded.

Does anyone know if such a beast exists? I'd love to add a final piece to the Monster family.

I know there is the Black, Orange, Blue, Red and the rarest Yellow but don't think there was a officialy done white Monster.

There have been several modded white monsters Bob has a few mods shown here.

There are the Seiko 5 Monster lites in several colors.

You might want to look here.  I am trying to get this now, or in the next 2 weeks.

just saw one this afternoon at a shop in KL together with the orange monster. The only different from seiya is the color of the bezel, theirs is stainless steel.

I agree with Skip. There is no official/formal white monster. There is a White Samurai and a White Puck but technically no official White Monster. The BM and the OM are the common ones and the rare ones are the blue, the red and the yellow.

The white one mentioned is generally known as the Seiko Lite and I think this was mentioned in the url supplied by Skip. But I have also picked some traffic on some other forums that this is also called the White Knight, which again is an error. There is a true Seiko White Knight but the profile is different.

So, I guess until there is a White Monster actually released, there will continue to be some fuzziness on thissubtlelaugh.gif.

By the way, I don't know how that Nato strap was attached to the Seiko "Lite" (quartziemodo site). None of my Natos and even any of my James Bonds can't make it through the very tight spring-bar-to-case distance. Maybe the holes were moved away from the case as a mod.mistake.gif
