iggi Posted January 26, 2014 Report Share Posted January 26, 2014 They have really nice watches: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fraggle42 Posted January 26, 2014 Report Share Posted January 26, 2014 The bracelets on the Monsters are a bit odd, they are 20mm width but the bracelet immediately expands to 22mm wide so it looks wider than it actually is. So if you put on a normal strap, it's got to be a 20mm and it looks just too narrow. A Mesh would be the only way to do it, as Mike says get a 22mm and it'll squeeze down to 20mm to fit but still look good. I suppose you could cut up the end of a leather strap - I've done that on another watch that's an odd size (19mm) and it looks fine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Marinemaster if we would only be allowed gens:) As it goes I will settle for a Seiko 5 Sports sooner or later and probably keep it as it is.

Archetypal Posted February 7, 2014 Report Share Posted February 7, 2014 Following in nightwatch and whoever's footsteps and feeling inspired I bagged a killer deal on the Pepsi SKX009. Got the gen rubber strap thrown in the deal! 160usd all in. Cracking watch, superb value. Definitely needs a shark mesh in the future. A watch collection just isn't complete without some seikos in it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nightwatch Posted June 12, 2014 Report Share Posted June 12, 2014 (edited) Woohooo, missed this thread after the 31th January when it was here for the first time. Nice Seikos flying around:) here´s what I´ve been doing... This dark-blue Seiko SKX009 Diver started it being soon followed by the SZNH57 (thanks to Mike..) which after some mods became this Seiko Fifty-Five-Fathoms:)) and lately couldn´t resist the fully lumed dial of the windable (!) Citizen Promaster NY0040-09W Diver (it´s really tops as well, same league as the Skx009) Edited June 12, 2014 by Nightwatch Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
