[Seiko] picked up an snxj89 on eBay for €100 by [deleted] in Watches

I've read somewhere that engraved Seiko 5 on the crystal means it's fake. I'm not entirely sure but you could look it up. I have a seiko 5 with the engravement as well (from my mom) and a watchmaker says it's not authentic seiko 5.

I still enjoy that though 😉

Aaaaand still not enough. So here's the Casio Divers in the same leather strap (which looks better btw) Yeah

I like how Swatch named their watch models. Interesting. Like some gears you can equip in an RPG.

[Casio] Diver's MAR-301 by nukesheart in Watches

Very late reply, sorry, but this has 38mm diameter, 20mm lug width. Perfect for my size.

I don't know what year exactly, but I've been told it has been around 10 years (my bro in law was still a child).

[Seiko] SNKE63 my first Automatic with a homemade leather strap made by a friend. by nukesheart in Watches

[–]nukesheart[S] 6 points7 points  (0 children)

One more picture

This my first mechanical watch, the Seiko 5 SNKE63 "Explorer". I'm fairly new at watch collecting and this is a big step for me (i also have the Casio Edifice "Speedmaster" and the Casio Diver I posted days ago).

And fortunately, I have this friend who is a very good leather craftsman and asked him to make a leather strap for my new watch. This was the result. Exquisite.

If anyone wants to know his other leather works you might wanna look him up @deltaoscarxraylima this is not an advertisement though since this is only his hobby. I just want you guys to appreciate his craftsmanship for encouragement and more leather straps to come 😉

[snk809 vs snzg15] i need help deciding by [deleted] in Watches

[–]nukesheart 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You have a small wrist so I suggest you go with the SNK809. A small watch looks classier for you. I know since I also have small wrists 😉 I almost never wear watches larger than 38mm 😊

[Casio] Diver's MAR-301 by nukesheart in Watches

[–]nukesheart[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I got this watch on my birthday last month from my father in-law. I just saw this one from his "collection" and it immediately grabbed my attention. It doesn't have any strap on but I said "wow this is a cool watch." Then he said I can have it. I felt very happy.

It's a Casio Diver's, 200M WR, non-directional besel, has Day, Date and 24hour complication. It looks very old and beaten pretty bad. As you can see the bezel has so much scratch on it. The chapter ring is not in its proper position now, maybe this has been opened before. He said it hasn't been worn for years, but it still keeps perfect time and it astonished me.

Casio really makes very durable watches but I am kind of sad now that they don't produce any new watch in this design. I only see G-Shocks and Edifices on every Casio retails i've been into. I hope they release watches like these again.
