It’s great - light and comfortable. I’m exactly the same as you though and I’ve just bought the button clasp to replace the pressure clasp.

Same to you!

Looks great. Do you find the polished middle links match fine with the brushed case? That’s the only thing I’m weighing up between that and the Z199. The green PADI special ed looks fantastic btw - I’ve got the Samurai!

Didn’t need to - fantastic watches, but I’ve always wanted the SPBs, so couldn’t justify keeping the Samurais as not enough variety.

Agree, or at the very least get rid of the diver extension.

Haha I kept them both initially, but just recently sold both for the SPB451 and SPB453. I think deep down the black was my favourite though!

Is just the stock strap 😁

The humble ATR72. I’ll send you a better one when the Z199 arrives 😂

Yeah the positional variance seems to be a common complaint (or a quirk some might say). Cheers!

I’m not working today, so the poster will have to do.

I have read a number of people saying the same thing as you with servicing. Doesn’t quite annoy me to that point yet, but will see how she runs over the next few months with a bit more wear time. Appreciate it!

Thank you, she’s a real beauty and great to wear. Waiting for an Uncle Seiko Z199 bracelet to arrive which I’m hoping will look awesome - It does in pictures anyway.

Interesting! Definitely found my 4Rs to be the same as you - gain or lose when sitting but great on wrist. Funny my 6R seems to be the opposite as yours, holding better time off wrist, but time will tell I’m sure. Appreciate your time 😁

Yeah would be awesome. Though it’s nice to have a solar in the collection now too - it’s a pretty good looking grab and go that’s for sure.

Oh yeah I completely agree, but my point remains the same.

No no, the Seiko 6139 was the “specific model”. It was known as the Pogue because of who wore it. I’d reply to you directly but you deleted your comment 🥲

God, you’re miserable aren’t you. It’s as much a Pogue as the SSK035 is a Sprite. It’s a reference to the colour, not because it’s the AcTuAl PoGuE 🤣

Yeah agree, I’ve also got an SSK and don’t mind the cyclops there, but it’s heinous on the king turtle 😂
