    Nice review. Any updates on the turtle after having it for a while now?

    like all but without seeing in person 255 is my fav.

  • @zakzakzakir
    @zakzakzakir 2 года назад +3

    255 is my favorite, and the one that I purchased. Love the the round hour markers, and I find the case to be a unique shape, while not being too bulky.

    Tried all 3 of them and found the Willard the best. Great review and a great choice. You can cut the strap to make it a single pass for a much more better fit. Loving this watch, thanks for making my decision easier.

    i prefer 253 or 255, but that's quite similar to my 143. haha. not a big fan of turtle, not because of its design. more like it won't look nice on me. anyway, good review and the colour combo is indeed something different for Seiko.

    Not exactly a Turtle - its actually a Capt Willard - famously named after the character from the movie 'Apocalypse Now'. The main difference between a Turtle and a Capt Willard, the crown guards on the Willard is more pronounced than it is on the Turtle :)

    Nice looking watches I must admit, not usually into black watches but these alright. But the limit edition of 5'500 is a bit of a joke, could you really call it a limited edition at that amount of pieces made?

    • @watchat888
      @watchat888  5 месяцев назад +1

      Hahaha absolutely agree. To me anything more than 1000 pieces shouldn't be regarded as limited edition. There is really no point for it to be. What's your threshold number?

    • @maxpaws3977
      @maxpaws3977 5 месяцев назад

      @@watchat888 I think a company like Seiko can get away with a 2,000 limited edition for a popular model (but no more), for a company not that well known or popular even 1,000 is too much for a limited edition. But yeah I am somewhat annoyed at the 5,500 ''limited edition'' black Edition Willard, but I got it at a good price.
