Aren't there two versions of most of these models? You get the NATO strapped version with a brushed bezel and a metal bracelet with a polished bezel. Is there a factory black bracelet for this model?

Not sure on the factory version with the bracelet but there appears to be a genuine one available in the link in my op, I was just wondering if there was something a bit cheaper available, it was an on the whim purchase and would prefer to keep the costs down on it whilst I save for something else that I have my eye on!

The one in your link has square ends whereas the 'proper' ones have shaped end links. As you say,I don't think this model did come with a bracelet.
If you don't mind square ends to the bracelet then any 20mm bracelet will fit.

Thanks, I only found the one in the link by putting the model number in from the back of my watch and it suggested that as an option.

Cheers anyway i'll have a look in the usual places and take a punt on one

Having recently purchased a Seiko Arnie (SNJ029) I'd like to look at other Tuna version but with automatic movements

Does such a thing exist ?

Thanks in advance

I'd say most Tuna's are automatic .
Just pick your color.

BTW: How do you get on with your arnie? Have worn mine a lot, only got it recently as well.

I'd say most Tuna are quartz or solar these days with just a few high end ones being auto.

They do a Spring Drive Tuna as well.

Love the Arnie to be honest. Have the brown (Safari ?) version of it. Wears comfortably, easy to use, nice and visible (except the digital display without my glasses )

No new pictures of my Seikos, so here's Kate's instead:

With this design, I feel Seiko reached new wuthering heights. It really sings to me

Some years ago, we moved house and Ms Bush's gaff was next door, behind tall fences and lots of overgrown trees etc. The night we moved in, there was a bit of a commotion coming from the direction of her house, with lots of barking. I wondered what the fuss was all about, and Mrs D just replied

"Oh, it's probably just the hounds of love"

That is one of my favorite watches at the moment. Have seen a few pop up discounted and will not be able resist much longer. I wish the bezel rotated it would be perfect, but still, it is just stunning.
