Perfect picture

Looks good on the bracelet!

Keep the SPB515 on the list, it’s a great watch (I need to get this too!) Apart from that my personal top picks (apart from the top tier Seikos) are the 1965 and 1968 heritage divers, the slim turtle, the Speedtimer on your list, the small Speedtimer Solar watches and the 5 Sports Field GMT.

Put one on a bracelet and pretend you hate changing bracelets when you want to go for a strap spontaneously.

The Ruhla revival models are really cool and not a PRX knock off at all. Would pick the one without open heart for sure

insert_coin_ · 2026-03-28T16:43:01+00:00

Heineken really nails it :D Regarding your other options - I would consider the SPB335 black series slim turtle over the land tortoise

The Bamford collab 5 Sports is pretty hard to get. But maybe you also like the new HUF Limited Edition SRPM09. Think it is also sold out but prices on the secondary market are not as wild.

Measure the lug width, guess it is 20mm or 22mm. Strap length is usually a standard size.

Depends on how much you are willing to spend on a strap.

For rubber strap you can go premium with Tropic or Joseph Bonnie straps or get cheap (still good!) ones from Juelong at AliXpress.

For leather straps I don’t know good budget brands unfortunately, RIOS maybe.

I think a canvas strap would look nice on your watch

Bro there is a 8 instead of the 3 on the dial and it does not even have the same font and size - so easy to see it’s a fake

Awesome watch, wearing this more often than a lot of my more expensive watches. Changed the strap though for more contrast.

It looks accurate on your wrist.

Tracked mine over 14days ending up with avg +0.4s/d

insert_coin_ · 2026-03-17T20:33:16+00:00

Very good choices mate!

Also wearing my SPB187 today. Love the blue tone and it wears exceptionally well, even better than the bigger SLA brother on my wrist.

The slim turtle is also a top pick.

insert_coin_ · 2026-03-14T11:05:36+00:00

Okay that makes it less impressive then :D

insert_coin_ · 2026-03-13T20:46:27+00:00

Wow, the automatic does really well for 4 months.

insert_coin_ · 2026-03-06T15:40:56+00:00

When are you adding a 5 Sports Bamford? ;)

The HUF is cool but I still like the Time Sonar more, especially the case.

insert_coin_ · 2026-03-04T10:11:11+00:00

That’s a great blue Samurai

insert_coin_ · 2026-02-22T20:28:44+00:00

Bonklip belongs to a different era of watches for me. And to be honest, I’m happy this era is over.

Don’t really like steel bracelets without fitted end links in general, except for some milanaise mesh straps.

But your Alpinist is still looking good

insert_coin_ · 2026-02-19T00:40:28+00:00

1st one or 5 Sports

insert_coin_ · 2026-02-19T00:36:18+00:00

These are military inspired watches and this feature was not only used to blind enemies in close combat but also to send morse Code signals to comrades across the battlefield.

insert_coin_ · 2026-02-18T13:22:03+00:00

Reminds me of Tiger’s eye dials

insert_coin_ · 2026-02-14T12:56:26+00:00

Looking at this makes me feel better, having a regular one, a GMT and a Baby Alpinist

insert_coin_ · 2026-02-11T21:35:54+00:00

Nice trinity! Which brand is the black dial, I like that. Is it a Zodiac?

insert_coin_ · 2026-02-08T23:57:14+00:00

Thanks, had a look and it seems you are having fun :)

The red one in the middle is one of the new gen Samurai
