My last impulse purchase for 2023, completing my collection of the Seiko Cub issue.

£280 (£70 off retail) on a Cyber Monday / week long offer. Very pleased with it, the first issue (green / white) is going to be given to my my daughter on her birthday as she liked the funky colours, so at least one of them will be getting worn.



Edited to add better pics.

Love that!

Presumably an import? I do not recall see it on the Seiko UK boutique website.

It's a SBGH335. A tie up between Seiko and Watches of Switzerland (Goldsmiths supplied it). Saw it advertised on the web last night whilst in the pub and ordered it as I liked the look of it smile

Is your photo a more realistic representation of the colour than Goldsmiths’ web page? It looks very green there, but a much more appealing and subtle colour above.

Yes it is, vibrant but not as dark a green as seen on the webpage.
To say I am happy with it is an understatement cool

Put the SPB077 on a Crafter Blue CB03, and very comfy it is.

My Slim Willard on a US Oyster bracelet, really nice quality, I'd definitely buy from them again. This is my perfect daily beater.

A very humble 6309-8830 I’ve owned from new from my 21st Birthday. Stopped wearing many years ago and then my wrist got too fat, but recently found the matching spare bracelet for pennies on eBay for an extra link, and fallen back in love with it

Love that one. A timeless look, so to speak.

Seiko produce some really well-proportioned, well designed tool watches.

That's not one of them.

None taken biggrin

It’s complex, quite clever but very difficult to use the bezel as it’s intended. One of those I wanted to try.
