    White Tuna Seiko

    Haven't posted for a while. Contributing my newfound craze.

    Quartz 7C46 movement. Decides to move off from mechanical movements for the near forseeable future.

    Reasons being timing accuracies and servicing being the main culprit for falling out of love with the mechanical tick tocks.

    Nuff said, here's some pictures of this white tuna that has polarised opinions when it was laucnhed as the 45th anniv piece of Seiko.

    I removed the original strap as i don't like the metal floating keeper. Kept it on a after market Z-22 strap.



















    On my 6.25 inch wrist. Still manageable, i think. It sits high but dosen't wrap the wrists cos it got short lugs.



    Hope you like it! I do!?!!!

    I said it when it first appeared on the forum, I'll say it again: I like it :)
    I think it would look brilliant on a NATO....

    As said before here on the forum: first there was the Dart Vader and this is the Storm Trooper version.

    I must say that your pics make the watch look better than I first thought!
    Wear it in good health.

    I nearly asked you to pick me one up Vic!

    I think these are really cool. Wacky, but cool. Would have to play about with straps though. I think it's meant for something else, just not sure what yetr.

    Congratulations on the arrival of the stormtrooper.

    I've got my SBBN013 Darth on one of William Jean's shark mesh PVD bracelets which I think would suit yours pretty well too. Will try to get some photos up today.
