My seventeenth watch
I was intrigued by the Arnie when I saw it, but not enough to consider getting one. Then, like a big dork, I saw the hands move in a smooth sweep to match the digital time after setting and my mind changed to “must have” fairly quickly. And I’m glad I chose the Pepsi bezel (SNJ027) as it has bi-color lume - a fact I missed somehow when initially researching.
But if it’s not too big for you, it’s a fun watch. Screw down crown & pushers, 200 m diver, alarm function, solar - I love it. The Seiko strap it came with was actually decent, but I wasn’t nuts about the design. But that’s easily remedied. Still happy I bought it and love whenever it‘s its turn to come out of the watch box.
I got into watches shortly before the pandemic and got bit by the bug -bad- My photos are crap, but I’m working on it!
You made a wise choice!

Ditto! :D
Stop now while you can 🤣 I'm close to 30 watches. This is one of my favorite divers the titanium is super light weight and the GMT reminds me it was hard to travel in 2021 😂.

We’ll see if I slow down once the watch box fills up ;)
I haven’t added a Citizen yet to mine, but I’m visiting their site plenty looking for one. Looks great!

I love Citizen especially their promaster series. If you buy from overseas you can find tons of Automatic Citizens. Not sure why US gets only Eco-drive.

We’re supposed to go to Japan next year if the world will chill for a minute. I’ll definitely be keeping an eye out!

I went to Japan back in 2017. I missed out on watches I was more drooling over headphones, food and tech. Defiantly I recommend going to Kyoto and visit the shrines if you haven't (praying that they open for foreigners soon)
It has a bi-color lume??? Didn't know that either 🤔 been debating on should I buy the SNJ25 or like yours the 27

Yep! I love both, but I already had a black bezel 007, so the 27 made sense this time. Both are great, though! Not sure why they didn’t do the blue lumed hand on the 25, as well.
Congrats on a really fun Seiko!
I don’t were mine as much as i used to, but it puts a smile on my face every time i tak it out.

Gorgeous :D Did you change the shroud out for a metal one? Never seen an Arnie with one.
Thank you!
Yes i did.
i'm thinking of buying a bracelet for it but haven't had any luck finding one i like.

Awesome look! And yeah, bracelets are sometimes contentious for me. Would love to see if you do find one you like with it!
