I picked these two up last week. I was a little disappointed they didn't have the blue faced one in stock too. The brown is actually really nice, much nicer than I was expecting.
The Seiko Boutique will be the death of my bank account...
They look so much better than they do on the internet and feel quality. I wasn't sure about the brown one, which is why I didn't buy, but it looks great in your picture. They sell some on Amazon UK too, so maybe take a look.
Did you mean this blue one or the really dark one?

Which package did you go for? I was one of the fortunate 40 that got the low serial number deal, quite chuffed with that. Really happy for Ewan that his initial funding target was hit within 15min of kick-off, I see that it's over £65k now and closing in on his stretch target.

Yes glad his hard work is paying off, seem like a decent bloke the few times I have spoken to him.

Have to say I'm a bit of a Dan Henry fan since getting my 1970 Diver. Stonking value and really nice attention to detail. 38mm, Mecha-Quartz movement. Nice bit of kit for $250. Comes with a ‘beads of rice’ bracelet, leather strap and watch roll. Turned up in 6 days, with no customs charge.

I've been going a little crazy, guys...
STOWA Marine Original. It's really lovely.
I got a Flieger too. I have a Nomos Tangente on the way, as well as a JLC Reverso, a GS Snowflake and possibly a Credor Eichi II, although that one will require a lot of thought.

I'm jealous.
That's such a good looking watch.
I totally agree so have been on their site but can't for the life of me find any reference to size for any of the ranges. What am I doing wrong?That's such a good looking watch.
A Junghans Incabloc was the first watch my father bought me and would love to get another.

If you look at an individual watch (rather than just the collection), next to the photo pf the watch there are seven drawings highlighting movement, function, case, crystal and so on. Hover over the third picture, and it'll tell you the case diameter.imperium said:
I’ve been looking at getting one of those Stowa’s ^.
Nice looking watch that.
If you can, get one. They're really, really lovely things, well made and the movement looks great through the display back. They're surprisingly large watches though. Or rather, it surprised me a little, you might be expecting that of a 41mm (I think) watch.Nice looking watch that.

I mean... Keep it up!
I've had a rough few years, and I've come into some money. Money is there to be spent, right? I'm in an extremely fortunate position, so a little indulgence can't hurt too much. The Credor might be a bit too far though. I'd love to get a Nautilus too, but I can't even get on the waiting list and don't fancy paying over the odds second hand.

Good for you Alex. Especially as we get to enjoy them vicariously too
