Absolutely loving that, love the case shape & pushers. Not usually a Panda faced fan, but really liking this one.

Now, as a bit of a Seiko fanboy i'm ashamed to say I'm not sure which model it is!!

It's a SNDF87 - there's a few colour combos.

It's a lovely photo right enough. It's to blame for me buying one of the things. I should thank you i'm quite happy with it.

I also bought one on Wednesday because of that pic. Due to arrive tomorrow. Not bad for less than a hundred quid!

Gents, I bought a Seiko 5 divers watch from Creation in December 2013 but the bloody thing loses about 2 mins every couple of days.

Does anyone know where I stand warranty wise?

Nowhere probably. Their service is crap, the prices reflect it though.

I thought Seikos had a 2 year warranty.

Won't be valid with Seiko, they offer their own warranty but my experiences haven't been good and by the time you pay to get it sent to Singapore you might as well have it serviced here.

Nope, standard 1 year.
Grand Seiko and Ananta have 2 years, but only if bought in the UK – self imports are just the standard 1 year International Warranty.

If it's losing 2 mins per day consistently, then it may need nothing more than regulated – which any competent watch repairer with a Timegrapher will be able to do, and re-pressure test.
But speak to Seiko and see what they say, etc.

Ebay, a shop in Miami. $145 with free shipping. There are quite a lot of US retailers on Amazon who have it for $160-180 as well.

Hopefully you don't get caught by customs...

Arrived this weekend and swapped the strap to a navy Nato. Looks great, and I love the flyback feature on the stopwatch!
