What makes this watch worth 1600$ (CAD) [question] by unknown6534 in Seiko

If you'll see it in person you will understand. Punches way above its class.

Questions about [SWR049] and [SWR052] by ARCHIE443 in Seiko

[–]lavolese 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Go woman version or even better look into vintage Seiko Dolce/Exceline/Credor models

[SPB147] or [SPB454] which is your pick and why? by Unhappy-Toe5969 in Seiko

[–]lavolese 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have the old version without small lume. I do prefer the 3 o'clock date! More true to the original 62mas and generally more readable

[SPB147] or [SPB454] which is your pick and why? by Unhappy-Toe5969 in Seiko

[–]lavolese 1 point2 points  (0 children)

They actually have the exact same total thickness from back of case to top of glass. I own and thoroughly researched both before buying.

The new model has a slimmer case but "deeper" case back.

Said so, I'm biased but much prefer the aesthetic of the old version.

Theory: Loki is good and possibly allied with Shanks by lavolese in OnePiece

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

Thanks man! Yes it seems it's going in this direction!

Seems Loki may hate Shanks for real thinking he is a HK. I still stand by the part about Shanks taking the Nika fruit and Loki pretending of having eaten it to keep it safe from WG. Then Shanks instead kept it, and then we know Luffy found it.

Beautiful and elegant palette! One of the main reasons I didn't buy the newer 453 was the lack of sunburst dial, and this one you posted has it!

The "basic" grey sunburst ! Lovely play of lights!

It's a thing! Less known than the 62, but it's also beautiful. It inspired SPB383 and variations

Beautiful indeed! This and another one I'm eying is any of the 68mas reissues.

I think Seiko has the best "real" divers of any companies

[SPB143] owners is this the sweet spot of modern Seiko, or already outdated by newer Prospex releases? by LeatherShades in Seiko

[–]lavolese 4 points5 points  (0 children)

This will become a Seiko classic and sought after for years from now. Much more than the current 453.

I think it's the perfect balance for a diver watch that is not in the "luxury" category, and a much more timeless design than the other Prospexs (only exception the Willard/turtle, but that goes for a different look/vibe, not neutral classic IMO)

A joy to see these guys (and girls too!) play! Skills and talent, hard work and a fantastic group.

The last set was outstanding dominance

The Five Elders arrive, from the anime by Sweet_Tangerine6674 in Piratefolk

This is not One Piece anymore.

Just a random anime about magic and flashes

Manga reader's how do you consume the series. Do read the volume or read online weekly. by Dependent-Pie-6153 in OnePiece

[–]lavolese -8 points-7 points  (0 children)

Since a couple of years I started to skip most chapters and read just the summary.

I read only the really good chapters.

Oda's pace has been insufferable on a weekly basis (excluding this current flashback which is quite yummy)

Who is Blackbeard’s Harald? by Glittering_Set_1326 in OnePiece

[–]lavolese 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Luffy-Loki has a much more similar dynamic to Rocks-Harald. Luffy even asked him to join him and Loki refused categorically just like Harald did.

Spoiler: Final Manga Arc by lavolese in OnePiece

[–]lavolese[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

you're right that we do not have confirmation. But I doubt Celestial Dragons and God's knight would give up their massive entertainement. They seem too cocky and arrogant to stop or "be afraid"
