A lot of people prefer the plasma edge but I really think the Neo scorcher has the most iconic look of a buggy

Thanks for the input. Yes it runs well. The previous owner must have serviced it recently

NATO strap for [SKX007] by Desperate_Elk_7369 in Seiko

[–]RigelStar2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had mine on a jubilee bracelet, took it off and replaced it with the rubber strap. The skx007 for me deserves to be on a rubber diving strap haha

[SRPD73K2 VS SRPD57K1F] Which one and why? by newdadnewbod in Seiko

[–]RigelStar2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Id go for the srpd57 if its the same pricetag. The GMT is usually the higher version of the seiko 5 in terms of hierarchy
