Wearing my 2 day old newbie, the SEIKO SBDC011 also known as the Fieldmaster. Longer review to follow but here are some vitals. Movement: 6R15, automatic, windable and hacking. This is one of the higher-end movements of Seiko used in its diver range. Diameter of bezel at the top of the steel shroud: 45mm and 48mm at the bottom/base of the shroud. With crown, the diameter is 50mm. Thickness is 13.75mm. Crystal is rather small at 30mm and lug width is a strange 21mm, an odd number, and hardly used by Seiko in its lon history. Water resist is 200mm and the watch is anti-magnetic, too. I bought it on impulse because it is a land-based watch with a tuna can case (abhorred by other guys at another forum.....queer!!! I just love the tuna case and couldn't resist this at an AD. This is a full-fledged member of the highly-regarded Prospex line of Seiko. Hope you like it.


Jeff that is cool! I love the tan strap and sliver bezel Thumbsup3.gif
