Always liked the look of the Seiko Monster, and as it`s considered the watch in terms of lume, well I had to have one (being quite the lume nut that I am ...) Compared to the Seiko Pepsi (same price level) the finish is not that impressive, but hey, we`re not talking a expensive watch here, but something that can take a beating an last quite a while. Got the one on the rubber strap, but wish I got the bracelet cause I read that it`s really nice (And the 20mm rubber on it is ac crap as it gets, as it tapers down to 17 mm or something like that, and makes it look like something a kid would wear) So got it on a zulu, and haven`t looked back since. Might even order the bracelet for it. After an evening with only dim indoor lighting it still glowed impressively when I woke up, so must say it lives up to its reputation regarding the lume. And mine is running +1/24h as of now, so we`ll see where it settles, but looks like I was lucky at least. QD`s only unfortunately, but this one has been covered to the max several places, so guess you know the deal ...  The lume pic is after i held a led light over it for aprox 1 min, and then had it in complete darkness for an hour ...Pretty nice imo.  Last edited on Fri Dec 9th, 2011 04:13 am by FnuSnu99 |

 Tony:0) Must say I`m impressed by these low-cost seikos, and have a few of them by now. This will probably not get the most wrist time, but serves a purpose 4sure

I bead blasted mine so I could continue to beat it up w/o the battle wounds showing.

Congratulations, I'm still not sure if I love to hate the monster or hate to love it... in either case I have an orange one and it does get worn!

Big congrats to your new SEIKO Monster my friend ! The Monster is a classic in the SEIKO line up over many years. I love the hand set of the SEIKO Monster, especially the hour hand. And the lume is awesome of course. Greetings
