Congrats Brice...Looks good!!!party.gifthumbsup.gif  I still like mine although it hasn't gotten wrist time in a long while!

Here at 3T, we like to refer to this one as the "KAMIKAZE" (A name coined by Jeff (bigrustypig), which I think really suits the piece a bit better IMO)...what's the "spork" moniker mean relative to this Seiko?...I can only think of the school cafeteria many moons ago and that crazy hybrid spoon/fork thing that they gave you.subtlelaugh.gif

Will be anxious to see if this is a "keeper" for you.

Enjoy amigo!!!


Ditto to Chris' post. Kamikaze seems to be a better nickname than the Spork used at another forum. They also refer to this as the "Tuxedo Diver"....but none of those names stuck, however.

That Kamikaze has it all, Brice. Big Congrats! The profile is almost exactly the same as the Seiko Prospex Marine Master 600m or the SBDC001....priced at about US$2,300 to US$2,500. It is a heavy watch, with outstanding lume and significant presence on the wrist. You will just love owning that.

Enjoy it in good health for a very long time, amigothumbsup.gif
