The watch that all but stopped me buying watches. It's almost my only watch.

Got some old ones:
Gotta love a Monster:
A modded one:
And a rare one:
And a couple "in transit"!
Although no trees were harmed during the creation of this post, a large number of electrons were greatly inconvenienced.
Just these three for now, although I've owned about twenty five others through the years. The last one I built myself from some spare parts.
I wore this yesterday, for the first time in ages. I'd forgotten how good it is and how modern they look. Several of the guys asked me when I had bought my "new" watch!

I have just snared this from another forum also.. it will be winging it here too very shortly.
I missed my old one.
Can't wait.
The UFO is my THIRD one... having got rid twice, stupidly.
Can't beat some Seiko love.
Wow, very unusual. Apologies if I've asked this before but how old is this one and do you have a model number or movement number for it?Originally Posted by gregory

Always room in my Seiko box for that one Greg, should you get bored.
I should never have sold it - it's the only running one I've ever seen!
I love every single one of those. Congratulations on that collection!Got some old ones:

Another new arrival this morning!
This is a pretty rare 7f24 movement day/date with independent 24 hour/GMT dial.
Small at just a 34mm diameter, but unusual enough that it might get some wrist wear.
My little Seiko....
Classic... Monster
And these two NOS examples of Giugiaro "Bishop" models, old and new one.
Not much Seiko left in this one!
This one's mostly original
Although I have a 009, an Orange Monster, a SARB063 and a digital SBGP001, I was until about an hour ago, Seiko-less. on arriving back from a walk with the kids, there was a package on the door step, my SKX011 from Rob @ Monster Watches, complete with Orange Monster hands and Super Solid President Bracelet. A play with the screwdrivers and here it is on the wrist...
I never liked the hands on the 009 (shape), the 011 even less (shape and colour), however with the white/black combo going on I am well pleased, and the bracelet is great as well, heavy enough to balence the head, but still with the essential 'rattle-y-ness' that a Seiko needs!
A quick phone photo to start...
I kinda like Seiko, currently in the collection are these:
Plus another 7C43 currently at service.
And SWMBO has a couple,
Here's my old Seiko that I've had since I was 14 or so. I still don't know how the alarm works, but it can be used as a second timezone I think.
I love those Type II quartzes. They seem to have a quality about them others did not have.
I've just purchased one of these the SBNN015, what a watch! the bracelet is amazing incredible engineering. I've worn it for four days now and its going to stay on my wrist! Outstanding!!

My Seiko dive projects, some day I'll find the time to address them all!
Seiko Marine Master 600M GMT SBDB001, nearly sold it - so glad I didn't, it's become my daily wearer.
My first Seiko when i was about 11,was from memory a Pepsi coloured diver,don't know the model but will never forget it.
I only have one at the moment an skx007j.
Some of mine and I do wear a few regularly.
Found model number.
Thanks.

This 2 SKX
There two at the moment:
and my father's Seiko:
restored a few years ago so now is in almost like new condition.
Used to have all the variations of SKX007 and 009 from time to time, J versions, oyster bracelet, etc. I'm very tempted for a 009 again, but it is very possible to spend the money on some other Seiko divers model.
These two very different Seiko Marine Master's......
A fairly recent acquisition of mine
JDM 7A38-7110
What is that first picture - very nice??
Reading this thread while having afternoon coffee break, wearing the 25 year old diver.
I have a weak spot for GS - have managed to gather a few...
Santa is bringing me this one. The wait will be unbearable. It's an all-original 1983 6309-7049:
Here is one of my 007s on a borealis rubber strap that has isofrane style:
Just received this. Gift for my girlfriend and she is very happy with it:
And this was also recently added to my collection and I really love it! I love the size and the weight of the watch and its classic design. Quality is outstanding for the price. I only wish it had better WR and in this case it would my ideal daily beater for a long time for sure:
Considering a strap change to a Zulu black or orange. However I do like the strap on this as it is a bit different to most.
A new SKX007 - loving the stock bracelet - so light and comfy.
Got to say I love my 007. I can easily see why people think why bother with anything else.
Very taken with this recently acquired SUN019 Kinetic GMT.
This is my biggest watch but there's something about it that makes we want to wear it all the time.
Although I do like the bracelet, also enjoying it very much on rubber at the moment.
A titanium Kinetic that I picked up on eBay...
Don't have an individual pic of my white Seiko 5

I received this recently from a super bloke on this very forum who couldn't get away with it. It's an A914-5010.
I've never had an LCD watch so I'm a little taken with it. I also love it's retro look:
This was recently added to my Seiko family and I love it:
My SKX013:
Inspired by this thread, my latest incoming from Seiya an SBBN015 Tuna, a couple of quick and dirty pics, this is very difficult to photograph with the domed crystal.

Yes Nono is selling one, I pm'd him for you and pointed him in this direction
Thanks for that, will wait to see if he makes contact. Seeing more and more photos is making me want one even greater.
My Pepsi Solar Chrono.
Awesome VFM.
