    Very cool watch design. I do agree with you on DiTomasso cars. I had the Pantera. My license plate read, I8A4RE. 😎

    Im 5 years late but, i have a question, are the straps widely available? Wouldn't it be a problem when straps deteriorate

    Did they make a reverse version for those who wear watches on their right wrist?

    Hello brother, do you know anyone selling shroud spare parts or plastic bezel cases for this watch? mine is really broken😢

    I don't know why but a proper quartz diver really appeals to me 🤷🏽‍♂️😍

    Well I had to watch this video, just out of curiosity! As I never really was drawn to the watch. But hay tastes change! 😉

    My wrist is 7 3/4. Is this strap large enough to comfortably fit my wrist?

    Congrats! The back is so shiny and new and I like the battery change indicator feature. It also looks like the seconds hand lands flush with the seconds markers. This definitely has great unique look!

    • @WatchGeek
      @WatchGeek  7 лет назад +1

      +whatsonthewrist yup, this one definitely is NOT a homage to any Swiss watch :)

  • @markfallon7694

    I really like this watch. My only reservation is the strap length. My wrist is almost 8 inches, will the strap fit me?

    Your review was awesome sir! You covered every base with your explanation of the watch. I hope to order one in a week or so from Japan. I hope they still have them in stock by the time I'm ready. You earned a new subscriber with this video.

    Oooh, I like that gold case. Thing is a eye catcher!!

  • @charlesbelville5090
    @charlesbelville5090 4 года назад +1

    Awesome piece. I kinda wish that they had made them out of titanium with the same finish and maybe even a titanium caseback. Kinda like the titanium Coalition Forces collection from Invicta. I may get a lot of hate for blurting out the "I" word here, but when it comes to titanium, they work with it very well, especially in that series of pieces.

    I'm a mechanic. By whatever authority that grants me, you keep back threading to line up those crown threads before screwing down the crown. :-)
    FYI: Back threading is especially important when reinstalling a screw into plastic. Back threading will keep a second set of threads from being cut. A second set of threads will weaken the plastic.

    • @WatchGeek
      @WatchGeek  7 лет назад

      +WarGamingRefugee I do to, like I said out of fear and out of habit, I'm glad to know it is a proper way of screwing in a crown :)

    A wrench, a hammer and a bit of persistence, lol: My father had a Lada....Fixing it required the exact same tools ;-)))

    • @andreimadasov4955
      @andreimadasov4955 4 года назад +1

      With Lada it's an endless loop: easy to fix, easy to break. On the other hand, it's a good reason to hang out with lads in a garage with beer fixing old Niva or 2103.

  • @thomasshaw4173
    @thomasshaw4173 4 года назад

    Definitely a conversation piece. I like over built and unique looking watches. I am also a sucker for a blue dial. What do additional straps cost?

  • @davidmckenna1549
    @davidmckenna1549 4 года назад

    Very unique looking watch. Does Seiko sell additional straps for this watch and do you know the price?

  • @chrismenes4995
    @chrismenes4995 4 года назад

    When it is time for a new strap, do you know what Seiko is charging?

  • @rag_man673
    @rag_man673 4 года назад

    Pretty sure as far as the "Bishop" watch goes, comfort wise anyway, he (Bishop) wore it on his right arm so it wouldn't have impeded his wrist. Of course I could be wrong, it's an old movie. LOL Love the unique designs of his watches, especially this one.

  • @functionaldoc5054
    @functionaldoc5054 7 лет назад

    Is this watch worth $319 US dollars? Love the look . Any other Seiko dive watches you would consider at this price point? I have a 7.5 inch wrist will this strap work? Found any other straps when this one will fail or will Seiko have a replacement strap ? Great review .

    • @WatchGeek
      @WatchGeek  7 лет назад +1

      +Functional Doc it is a limited edition so in the future it might appreciate, when it comes to the strap, it will look best on the stock strap, any other will require notching to fit

  • @deegxpert
    @deegxpert 4 года назад

    according to your watch case, it is time to change your battery now :-) just a reminder

    so i guess changing strap is out of the question

    • @WatchGeek
      @WatchGeek  6 лет назад

      +M O S haha it's possible but will probably look weird unless you are a master of exacto blades 😃

      i like your style of reviewing. subbed.

    • @mogts
      @mogts 6 лет назад

      cool, i will.
      i'm actually thinking of buying casio GW-M5610BC-1JF. what do you think about that watch?

    • @WatchGeek
      @WatchGeek  6 лет назад

      +M O S it's a great watch, I did a review of the GW-S5600 which is basically the same but made with more advanced materials like Carbon fiber and titanium and in it I mention the GW-M5610 and how they compare in the line if you want to check it out.
      They are the smallest GShocks so if you have a small wrist they look great
