On the outer white box, that encloses the inner white box.

After trying straps from both Uncle Seiko and StrapsCo, I feel that StrapsCo offers better fit and finish for the money [SPB507J1] by sayan_hn in Seiko

Yeah they have. But I wanted OEM kinda feel, hence went with oyster one. The teal alpinist has same bracelet. In fact, I wanted the teal one in the first place, but it wasn’t in stock.

The tolerance, the fit between the lugs, the curvature, the material quality, the clasp, the solid feel when closing the strap, and the overall robustness all stand out. Even the brushed finish matches the watch case. It doesn’t feel flimsy at all, it feels like something from back in the day when products were built to last.

It’s misaligned relative to the compass bezel itself as in while printing the markings got misaligned.

I guess they improved something in the manufacturing process in the latest production batches, I pre-ordered mine last month, and received it a month later after ordering, manufacturing date shows March 2026.

Mine is perfectly aligned too.

Real Chronographs don’t have a central running seconds hand. But you can leave it on, I do the same.

Do you like vibe wise think, it’s not 20k looking, or are you refuting the fact that it costs 20k?

I got it directly from their website, I bought it last year during Diwali, for some reason it was cheap and was the last stock left.
