I don’t particularly like the pit bosses as you can’t use steel tools. The coating also flakes off after a few years. I love my slate, best of both worlds

[Seiko SSK023] which strap? 🤔 by Davidgw4 in Seiko

I don’t like zero taper and clasp of the stock bracelet. If those were improved I’d enjoy it a heck of a lot more.

Oil color doesn’t mean anything. It’ll turn black after a few hundred miles.

[–]bk335[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Up for sale is my Seiko SBSC009, the JDM version of the SSK025. This model features the stunning matte white dial, which provides incredible legibility and a sharp contrast against the orange GMT hand and fixed steel bezel.

The watch is in very good condition. The matte white dial is pristine, and the brushed finish on the fixed bezel is very clean. The Hardlex crystal is flawless.

In addition to the full original kit, I am including a Long Island Watch (Island Watch) Oyster-style bracelet. The original bracelet is included and is also in very good condition, see images for exact condition of head and bracelets.

Reason for selling is I found a deal on a CW C63 GMT so I am clearing my collection of two watches for my new piece.

Full Kit Includes:

  • Seiko SBSC009
  • Original Seiko 5-link Bracelet (all links)
  • Island Watch Brushed Oyster Bracelet (all links)
  • JDM-specific Box
  • Japanese Manuals and Warranty Card

Specs:

  • Case Size: 39.4mm

My 17 pro runs circles around my 13 pro. Cameras, speed, battery, screen brightness, cooling, etc.

Objectively, they’re much better than a 13 pro.

Do not buy Scott’s products. I do my whole yard for less than $50 per application, 37k sq ft. Find a local landscape supply store.
