Jeff, What a great write up. Thank You, Thank You, Thank You. The comparisons were top notch and the pictures really pulled the story together. It is always nice to see good information and pictures to tell the true story of a watch.cool10.gif

Thanks for the write-up, I've long though that Seiko does black so well. That watch is such a great combo of blacks together, it just looks fantastic.

Thanks gentlemen. Wosto = thanks also for your kind words on my pix but I am not using a true macro and your photos are really the ones to beat Mark= thanks for your comments on my review. I tried to approach the review differently and I'm glad you liked it Nic = thanks also for the kind words on Daily Wrist Check. This watch is really ready to rumble Graham = thanks amigo and I agree that the Seikos, even the entry models and regular divers are greatly undervalued, underrated and underappreciated. They all get bum raps from those with little knowledge. We can forgive them. Tom = thanks also and your PM Natevan = thanks and for sure, I will enjoy this William = thanks and you are so right about the strap on my "young skin". Not only is hair from my head thinning out but my wrist hair sort of joined the picket line too  and now responding to gravity. I tried a Zulu but the Zulus here in Singapore where I met up with the watch, are all with polished hardware. I also tried plain Pam style rubber but the holes for the screw bars were so small and the fat, very fat, spring bars of the MM just wouldn't go through the holes. I ended up getting a Nato, amigo, but I got the thickest Nato with black, dull hardware. The beauty with Nato, though scrawny versus the mighty Zulu, is that the Nato flows more closely from the lugs and screw bars and this is because the gauge of the material is thinner and is helped by the "underlap" portion that goes under the case. I will try my luck with original Seiko waffle rubber or original Seiko Big 3 (the ones with 3 holes on each side of the 2 strap rig).Tony = thanks too Chris = thanks for the kind words on my review. It was way past midnight when wrote it Oscar = thnaks for the kind comments on my review. I try yo measure up to the other great reviews of the other 3T WIS Ricardo = thanks also and roger that: will post more pix and will show the watch as really black. The lighting a the hotel wasn't great when I took the shots and blues and grays were more predominant that time Aredman and Bozza = thanks also. By the way gentlemen, there's another very limited MM coming out in a few months. It's nicknamed the "STORMTROOPER". I don't really like it but I am attaching it to deliver the point on the use of ceramics for today's watches. Below are pix stolen from the higuchi website.   From the looks of the tiles and position of yellow flooring braile of the bottom picture, it looks like this was taken in a Tokyo subway. Last edited on Sat Feb 27th, 2010 10:19 pm by bigrustypig |

I never have been able to warm up to the tuna can's but if you keep taking pictures of it next to your other watches I may just decide I like it!

I don't know how I missed that Jeff, but again, big congrats on this super special Seiko! This watch is sooooo unique, from the shape to the materials it uses to the special L shape gasket that allows it to do saturation diving without the need of HV...I don't know what to say besides the fact that, it seems way too big for you. I don't think it suite you well Jeff but:P...I'm a nice guy and will fix this for you, I just PM you my address so you can sent it to me. My wrists are waaaay bigger, at 7" :D. Also, your Rolex and Pam seems jealous of you eating too much Sushi lately, you know that it's no good create watch envy within your own collection...Hehehe! I'm just kidding of course! Seriously, I have never been a fan of their rubber strap, and I highly recommend a thick(3mm +) PVD mesh on this one Jeff. You are my new Seiko HERO!!! perfect.gif
