So... I couldn't tahan and went back to the AD to talk to the salesperson who had the Alpinist. Asked to manhandle and try it on my wrist, which he gracefully allowed. Beautiful indeed, but really a tad too small for my wrist unfortunately... guess no choice and will have to pass sad.gif

They are just one of the better ones. There are plenty of super oyster sellers, but quality varies lo..

No offence bro, but you can get one from Seiya at less than what you are asking for.

Gratz, obligatory wrist shot man...

I would have chosen the GMT as well, at one time I was really keen on the Timex 3-GMT which looks roughly like your Seiko.

But both are very different pieces so you won't go wrong if you went with your heart.

yea, the SARB015. Came together with the 017 (green) and the 013 (cream) but somehow different hands and looks.

I guess it's down to a proper good strap in my case. When I get it back and I have it on a proper strap, I'll re-evaluate.

My SO loves it though.

Ah.. I see. It has a smaller diameter compared to SKR009, right? Hmm... I might be wrong. The size is like Seiko Blue Lagoon Turtleback?

I'm not sure what is the SKR009. If you mean SKX009, no it's the same, just the bezel option different colour.

The new Turtles are larger.

Yes yes, SKX009. My bad.

Hmm... looks great in pic. I think I saw one at City Chain but the colours is not as sharp as the pic.

Planning to get one more Seiko to add into my collection.

Got additional discount during birthday month. Heh

If I remember correctly, you can probably source the turtle close to the price of SKX these days, if it was me, I'd go with the turtles.

Poison a bit.

how about SARG003?

Sorry brah, it is SKX013. I just swapped out the hands.
SKX013/015 is midsize 38mm smaller than the SKX007/009 at 42mm
The price of SKX007/009 is crazy these days. Just last night i was walking in Pertama, all open price at 1.6k. The cheapest after nego was 1.2k, if pay by cash. farking crazy itellyu.

now i start to regret abit for trading away my 009 for an Urchin.

You also have the SARG007, but don't think it's as popular as your 017's. So lucifah still have a few pieces to go to complete his collection tongue.gif

Ok la, 013 and 007 abang adik just mainly hand difference. And ya price really insane nowdays. Might as well top up a bit go get a turtle.

Mudah has a couple of 007/9 floating around between 600-800 though, if anyone was looking for one.
