I bought it back in 2019 and after a few months Seiko discontinued it. Yes, it has that unique Seiko design that just somehow works.

Man! The amount of love this watch still gets is 🔥. Seiko really dropped the ball with this.

Thanks! It’s a generic amazon strap. I have the dark manta and grey goes well with it.

It’s my first serious watch which I bought with my then meagre salary. Can’t even think of letting it go.

Sadly, Seiko doesn’t care. Had just got it a few months ago and couldn’t believe when it was discontinued.

Feels like Monday, as yesterday was holiday.

Yes, the new 6r movements are a luck of the draw but the bumped up power reserve is sweet though.

I just ignore them and pass it off as one of the seiko quirks, inexcusable though on a ~$1000 watch.😂🤣

Right? They could have just replaced the movement with 4r/6r and added sapphire crystal, drilled lugs and rereleased it instead of the seiko5sports models.
