44mm x 14 mm thick (50mm with crown)
Hardlex Crystal Material
200m Water Resistant
Movement : Caliber 4R15, Automatic 21 jewels

Descent lume, great compared to non-Seikos:

Thanks, always interested in a bargain. Happy to help out, your PMs led me to realize that we ought to share the basics on this model with the forum as a whole. If you want a Sinnish Seiko this is your model!

Fine by me, SinnFull Seiko it is! As for the B&R - just don't keep up with those as square cases really are dreadful IMHO and a fad. You're right though, the hands and dial do look similar.

Watch looks much more like B&R to me but you cant argue that Seiko decided to get into the mod business with this piece and the price kinda shows it!! The new Seiko SRP043K1 Diver Icon_pirat

. . pretty nice. Slides right in between a few of the current model line-ups. Little bit of the best from all . . .

$325 for a Seiko???!!

Kinda pricey at first glance, but I guess if the bracelet HAS SEL and the movement hacks and can be hand wound it could be worth it.



This is my $350 Seiko

seems like the skywatch link you gave its not really in stock from what is shows when you add to cart and is $25 express shipping with tracking............the other option is registered mail for 2 week delivery with no tracking for $15..........for right now, i think i willl stick with bluedial.com ........might be a little more money, but at least i know they have it and are reputable.......plus i wont be buying one for a month or two, so buy then, i might find it cheaper elsewhere......
