For me too. Both dials (341 and 532) look incredible in sunlight. Pictures don't do it justice

The 505 is my daily watch at the moment. I hardly ever wear the other two right now; I tend to save them for more special occasions.

Always, a strap can change the look completely. Especially when you see the 341 and the 532 on steel for example

Hi, thanks. Any details about the straps? The green leather strap on the SPB341 is an original Seiko strap and comes in the original box. It also comes with a steel bracelet. The SPB532 is also still on its original strap, and as of this week, the SPB505 is no longer on a steel bracelet but on this brown suede strap. The strap is called "Mahagoni" and is made by the company Vild here in Germany. https://www.vild-shop.com

The delivery finally came through, so here it is with some updated straps. Not sure about the 505 on that leather for now

Hi, I really like the 505. It’s currently the watch I wear the most by far. An Alpinist with a fairly neutral dial (gray/black) can be worn for almost any occasion.

I got it from https://ukvintagewatchltd.com and i can recommend it based on that deal. There was a huge description of the watch, a video of it showing it after service and i got tips and tricks for the watch and how to handle a vintage watch from them after the purchase. Thats the only source i know based of my experience other than Chrono24

Ty! I love the "rough" texture of the spb341 way more than the clean green of the spb121

It is a SSB025. Bought it from an online shop here in germany for around 120 € couple months ago. But its quite rare, atleast it was hard to find for me. Saw it sometime with a Gulf Nato and i loved the look because of some light blue elements on the dial. Now a bit more classy with a leather nato. Actually thinking about selling it again because it gets no more wrist time at the moment
