What does the 1-32 sub-dial indicate or am I being dim?
The date, it’s 1 to 31.
Yep, I was being dim.

The very first 'posh' watch I bought was an Oris pointer date, and I can still see the look on the salesman's face when I asked what the 1-31 was for around the outside of the dial! hehe

SKX007 with a few subtle tweaks

Very nice. I could never understand why Seiko put the second hand lume marker on the 'wrong' end. That's much better.

Ask Ryan Taylor at Francis & Gaye Jewellers.

He'll do his best to get your business, top bloke !!

There’s a couple of sellers on eBay that I’ve used for JDM Seikos. Also take a look at this:

I've used this site a few times.

There are some new Alpinists being released soon, so keep an eye out if you are interested

Good one for a Queen fan. 9000 pieces isn't that 'limited' is it?

I have no special interest in Brian May or Queen, but that looks amazing!



Any idea what these usually go for?

I think it's ace. £500 quid (ish) seems good money to me.
My lovely wife spends that on spoffy stuff every couple of months. Candles, youthening products etc.
I just buy beer.
Hmmmm.

With the greatest respect for Mr May, I think it looks F-ugly. I wouldn't be surprised if he thought the same. Seiko fan that he is.
