Per Watchboy's request I have contacted Seiko and they "agreed" to produce the following Blue Monster Just for Him and Ken C. :D:dude::cool:

Yes, once you get rid of that "Walmart" colored Bezel its starts looking like a real watch again! A little deeper blue color and they'd have it! :D

A "cobalt" blue would have been great, but this is VERY acceptable!  It's on my list....the mod should be extremely easy!

That watch needs to loose the black chapter ring IMHO to make it work:( JMHO of course:)

Tony, if it were a slightly darker blue the black ring would blend better.

The whole color of the watch (in its original color scheme) screams WALMART! So, that is the problem. You correct one thing and you notice another problem :D:D:D:shock:

Thanks!:)

Well, I put a silver bezel on my black Samurai so I guess you could buy a black bezel and put one (blue monster) on if you really wanted to. You can keep the red/blue bezel and change it back if you need to.

I personally do not like the combination of colours (sorry, UK English :)) that this watch uses.

The Black Monster has grown on me and this seems to me a forced watch, if you know what I mean!

Yes, I have one. I much prefer the Knight series of Seiko Divers. But, the Monster is unique. I don't find much pleasure looking at it. Wearing it is a joy though.
