NWA: Ordered a new Seiko 5KX SRPJ45K1F

I tried on a 5KX last night at a store and really like how it wears. My Namica basically has the same dimensions so it's familiar. Got it on sale for a good price (The Bay).

I love the translucent dial, colour, classic Seiko design bezel, handset and indices. Date window is french, not Kanji, but that's ok too.

I bought this to replace my Casio Duro which I just never fully bonded with. It fulfilled everything I needed it for, but..... Yeah, just didn't click. It's for sale for cheap if you're interested but I'll probably just toss it in a drawer and unearth that time capsule in a few years.

Now the waiting game begins. So exited.

Don’t wear out the path to your mailbox 😜. The waiting is tough!

What is the thickness/height of this watch. It looks chunky. Great looks nevertheless! And do share the final price you got it for.

I think it's 13mm tall but it wears slimmer due to the nice case design. $235 CAD

That’s a steal. My local AD quoted much higher (220 USD) but still better deal than those on Amazon (~290). Thanks for sharing the info!
