Few new shiny bits for the SRP today

Casio Duro



48mm lug to lug on my childlike arm. If I wear it low on the wrist knuckle it doesnt look too bad. I don't think the 44mm case size is doing me any favours.

Maybe if it was 40mm case it might not be as bad.

seiko Turtle Save the Ocean "Limited" edition. Very nice dial. Need get a strapcode bracelet for it.

Looks like you're set back to level 1 on your chart, fitzgeme

Not to worry, I'll probably buy that Turtle off you again at some point

I have another one incoming too.....:D Actually made a ridiculous low ball to a dealer on Chono24 and he accepted it for a Arnie reissue after seeing it on here. Love that watch and as a child of the 80's it get me in the nostalgia.

Going to try no sell watches for a while and accumulate them. There is no rolex on my radar except the skydweller and that a long wait if it ever materialises.

No adverts ad is safe, so if your after bargains you better be quick

Wibbs comes around to their house and punches them in the face.

Are the "turtles" all characterised by that metal shroud/back-plate?

It does nothing for me I have to say.

Thats the classic turtle case...its a chunky monkey but at this stage its "iconic". You are right, if they slimmed down the case if would be a better watch. There was a trend thats only dying out now towards big watches, I am so happy watches are getting smaller.

Love the Grey Dawn - the detail on that dial is class.

To be honest I'm the same about the Turtles. The gilt wouldn't have been my first preference. Got a bargain well below market too good to pass up. STO or STO Great White still on my list.

I don't think quoting photos is an issue if they are hosted elsewhere? I never upload photos to boards..I use ibb image hosting and paste the link on boards

No, it's really annoying in general, especially while viewing on mobile - doesn't matter where it's hosted.

Quoting photos is banned because you have to keep scrolling past the same picture over and over, it moves threads onto next page unnecessarily etc.

If you quote a post with photos just remove the img tags from it. The photo will exist as a link to preserve the context of what you are replying to.

I'm the same. Was going to ask, personal preference aside, what is the attraction of the Turtle was over the Samurai? I may be missing something I had a quick scan on C24 there at prices and the Dawn Grey Turtle is a bit pricier than the Samurai but it's not as nice, imo.

What? Put a pic up? Oh, well if you insist....

I thought quoting was banned as it would take up unnecessary storage for boards?

Seiko SBDX001 ("MM300") today.

I have this about 10 years or so now I think. Imported from Japan (amazing value). It has some wear for sure, but would never consider selling it. I also like to wear it on a rubber strap (isofrane, although you need skinny spring bars to make that sork, or Crafter Blue, which is a bit of a faff with the need to put the clasp on - on balance I prefer the iso)

Anyway still going strong. Still just about my favourite Seiko diver, for all it's flaws.



Quick snap taken indoors - I'm useless at these but at the 6, 7, 8 indices you can see some of the nice finishing details (fine bevelling work), they also did the hands very well, and the date window (brushed steel for the date dial) but my crap pictures don't show this.

Btw - it's different limits for bring goods in without customs duties if you're flying in vs if you're sending stuff in the post (can't remember off the top of my head what the limit is but it's not €29 like for post - €22 but they don't charge if VAT is less than €7 or something so effectively €29). Something in the hundreds I believe for buying as a gift from abroad and bringing back - walk through that green lane with confidence
