Well, I hadn't owned a SEIKO in MANY MANY years until last fall when I acquired a Black Monster, then an Orange, sold them both... and found the perfect Seiko diver [to me], the SKX009!perfect.gif
 Now I got the Seiko bug I think subtlelaugh.gifand have been looking at several models... acquired a couple recently.
 
So only Jan 7th and already two Seiko arrivalsmistake.gif ( My Bali Ha'i Q arrived too but it is at the post office ready for pick up!!!!:()
 
First the Orange Knight I bought from McWright here on 3 T (Thanks!)... a better alternative to the OM for me. I love its lines, bezel to case integration, lug design.... and the orange dial of course. It is not as crazy looking as the OM while being very interesting and easier on the eyes;) Cant explain why but I jus love it! and the lume is top notch... brighter than the 009 and lasts a bit longer.







 
Second one is the SNK807K2, which just arrived this afternoon and looks great! Great dial/hand design and color combo while remaining very simple overall. Just put it on my wrist a few minutes now for pics, but I find it wears smaller on the wrist than I expected:( . Too bad as I love its design, and it is an auto as well. Gotta figure out if I'll wear/keep it.




 
 
 
Thanks for looking
