Morning Andy, can't go wrong with the Alpinist. It looks great on that strap❤️

Beautiful. This is the original Alpinist right?

Now this is a fancy Seiko! 😎

Thanks Ritchie, I’m getting tired of it though and thinking either bracelet or mesh🤔

Edit, sorry quickly read your post….. it’s not the original Alpinist the range started in the 1960’s in Japan, it’s one of the most sought after in the range

Thanks Sam 🙏🏻

I love the look of these!! Such a great hue of green on the dial and the gold just sets it on fire. Beautiful Andy!

Thanks Steve, it’s like a piece of jewellery to me 💚💛

Love this one Andy, beautiful dial and case shape and you even have yours without the cyclops (replaced crystal?)... Even greater for that!

Have an amazing day my friend!

Great strap choice!

Love green dials Andy!

Hi Miguel, I haven’t replaced the crystal this is an original SARB017 which is one of three launched in 2006 ( SARB013 beige & SARB015 black) and it is one of the most popular and sought after of the Alpinist range, this series of watches goes back to the 1960’s in the Japanese watch market.

I bought this from the JDM in 2007 as they were not readily available anywhere else other than in Japan at the time 👍🏻

Thank you 🙏🏻

Well you know my colour, but this little beauty connected with me IMHO I think it’s possibly one of the best green dials out there 🎯

Have a good one John👍🏻

💚💚💚

Ah was not aware, as most I see have the Cyclops...different versions I guess - but love yours even more for that.

Good to see you go green for a day :)!

Beautiful shots of your Alpinist Andy 👌🎯💯. Have a good day my friend 😎💥

Lovely watch that and a great strap choice. 👌

Thanks Tony and you have a good one too 👍🏻

Thanks Ian, one of my favourite watches that will never be sold 👍🏻

Going green today Andy! Loving it...

Hello Beautiful, it needs to be worn more… looks great on you!

Have and awesome day!

Indeed this is a real gem my friend! Enjoy your day today and have fun Andy 🙏

I love mine. I find the compass very useful. Lately I go to the park and find true north and with my cap pulled low to act like kinda blinkers I follow it. So far I have ended up in the duck pond twice and stopped 3 rugby games on the nearby playing field. I am in training for my ascent up Snowdon or more likely my descent into a sheep dip.

I knew you’d like it Danilo 🎯

Thanks Raymond, I revere this watch it’s so small and well made it, needs protecting hence the limited wrist time 😉

Thanks Kostas 🙏🏻

Hope your day is going well 👍🏻

What a unique use for it🤣😂

By the way I like your bracelet is it aftermarket or original?

It is original, but I have thought about a strap change, but I do like it as it is solid and does catch the light. Some people moan about Seiko straps but I think it is a good un. I do love my Alpinist, it is almost perfect after I got it regulated. I know it was a hype watch but I think it lives up to the hype. Your alignment with the compass better than mine, but it is not a complaint, unless I have my reading glasses on I can't tell.
