QUOTE(andrewtho @ Dec 17 2019, 09:42 PM) Been looking at 2 models, both Samurais. (2) blue sunburst dial and rarer to see on wrist. padi has been in the market for a long time saw too many wrist shots not so fresh already 1) Padi 2) Save the Ocean Collection - Great White Shark Leaning towards the Padi first, probably along the way might scoop up the Save the Ocean edition - the blue is just too beautiful.   I would lean towards oceans first then padi  |

QUOTE(andrewtho @ Dec 18 2019, 11:30 AM) Thanks! Yeah I rarely see this model / colorway on people's wrist. is the same quality in both K and J so shouldn't make much difference where the watch was manufacturedAlso, I noticed the PADI Samurai has 2 versions, Japan edition and non-Japan wordings. Are there any difference aside from the JAPAN Movement wordings? J series tends to be more popular for collectors / resale value and people tend to pay more for the Made In Japan written on the dial compared to K series which has Movt Japan and usually made locally here in msia |

QUOTE(seiken @ Dec 24 2019, 11:45 PM) New 2020 Alpinist already available in some markets. for this amount with unsigned crown too. can't they even bring back the crown from the sarb017  I think seiko increasing the pricing will kill a lot of mid tier jdm watch collectors that adores this brand for their affordability as opposed to swiss counterparts |

QUOTE(Everdying @ Dec 25 2019, 11:12 AM) seiko already been increasing prices of the 6r models like the sumo / shogun... then the newer 6rmas / mm200... ya man that's how I see this going too.. while 4r models are taking over the old 6r prices. that's why i think those "rumors" of alpinist / sarb getting discontinued is for ppl to quickly buy off remaining stocks... of cos that backfired abit since they're still readily available. looking at the trend, the discontinued applies more to the 6r15... the models with 6r15 are just casualties... then those models will later get upgraded with 6r35...like sumo / alpinist... hopefully our 6r15 models maintain / go up in price in the used markets in future so we don't have to lose so much from our past purchases |

QUOTE(Everdying @ Dec 25 2019, 05:14 PM) well when it came out the retail price was also usd400+...and back then the currency wasnt as bad as it is now. yeah quite true about currency fluctuations. cheapest 6r15 sarb035 I bought back in the days after discount was rm950i remember them around rm1.2-1.3k? even the sumo which has already gotten the 6r35...well u dont exactly see the 6r15 models shooting up in price...nor the non-x models... imo any price increase is mainly due to currency fluctuations... |

QUOTE(naruko85 @ Jan 2 2020, 08:12 AM) Hi, want to ask that I just realized that my prospex SRPC41K1 (4R35) are now 3 minutes earlier. So I need to readjust the time again? you can send back to your dealer to try ask them whether is it possible to send back for readjustment on the timing regulation + / - on the movementor you can send to a local watch maker to get this procedure done which should be faster to get back your watch |
