    Absolutely loving that green dial Alpinist and the SARA011.
    Two Seikos that won't leave my collection are my ice blue Presage Cocktail Time and my SUP88O tank ... well unless I get a JLC Reverso Duoface or Cartier Tank/Santos ... and those aren't particularly likely.

    Great selection and great Stories Gary. You're killing me with that SBTM307 at the end - I mistakenly searched for 'SBTM' and found another beauty - SBTM339 - down the rabbit hole... love me a solar and this one is titanium + blue dial + minimal dial branding + radio wave correction (not fussed bout that last 'feature'). Gotta do the niteclub bouncer principle of 'only letting one in when one goes out' ;)

    The last grand seiko you featured was absolutely stunning. if thats a solar quartz then im sold to it! I'm 25 and currently own 2 watches, a G-Shock 5610 and a Seiko SKX007 i bought second hand. I love these two to death!

  • @JohnBuckmaster-sw3wm
    @JohnBuckmaster-sw3wm Год назад +1

    So I think you were saying that you still had 017 alpinist in your collection!? I have a lot of seiko’s in my collection and that’s become my favorite. Consider picking up a strap code Jubilee.For it. They have fitted endlinks made just for the watch. My biggest regret is having sold my Saab 033. I’ve been trying to add it back in to my collection and they’re just not to be found for less than 2 1/2 times the original retail. Thanks for the great video!

    Very nice Gary! I recently bought a Seiko SCVE051 on a holiday in Japan. It's a blue dial open heart. I'd describe it as a budget presage. I couldn't find any reviews in English. Maybe a project for you?! 😊

  • @garethhanna9173

    Orient for me, four Bambinos, a Kamasu, and a couple of Orient Stars. The only Seiko I have if a Prospex Alpinist Deep Lake, it's a keeper.

    I saw a lot of "White dial GADA" watches in there, (both owned and sold). That's one area I just don't own! And I don't know why?! They look great.
    I have too many black dial watches. We all have our issues. ;)

  • @gazzertrn

    I get some of my watches from Japan , believe me the second hand watches you can get are superb . they use a really good scale to say what condition they are in .Also they sell models that are hard to get here , well worth a look .
    Im in to Prospex, and Arnie Seikos at the moment .
    But i just love those Grand Seikos , pure class .

    That old sentimental, broken old Seiko. So many of us have one. I gaze on the mighty SQ100 text on mine and weep that movements are no longer available. So they remain tucked away and every so often we put a battery in them in the vain hope of a long-lost tick. Stay strong brother. Stay strong.

    Oh, right the SARB033. It was a fantastic little watch but it's no longer there. It had to go to fund something even better, a Grand Seiko!. It's a shame Seiko don't make quality movements like the 4L any more. It's all the same now, 4R and 6R, reliable but quite boring.

    There was a time (about 10-15 years ago) when Seiko watches we're dirt cheap. Then I believe a few RUclips creators caused a revival of the Seiko SK009 divers and the popularity sadly drove the price up.
    Nice watches btw Gary. 👍🙂🇬🇧
