It’s finally here!

Finally decided to pull the trigger on an Uncle Seiko bracelet for my SNK809! It looks so good in person!

Uncle makes very nice bracelets. Can’t go wrong and the price is good also.

I really wish they (or someone) would make a 39mm SNK. It would be a huge seller.

Such a neat watch. I don’t think I’ll pull the trigger on these but they are very tempting!

This is my first Uncle bracelet, and I love it already!

I agree. I don’t really mind the size since I have a diverse collection, but 37mm is pretty small for most people.

It’s crazy how much the SNK809 went up in price! They were going for around $60-$70 when I got mine, and now they’re going for $140-$200 (which doesn’t seem worth it)!

According to Marc from Long Island Watch, the 5s and the SKXes were so cheap because Seiko had a major grey market problem. In an interview clip with Chronometer Check, he used an example of a previous gen Seiko 5 and said that the tag for it was $187..

I think the current prices are fine but $150 is the highest for me. The most I paid was ~$200 but it was for one that is VERY popular and I wasn’t sure I’d see at a good price again

Wow, fire. Might need to order one up. Looks awesome, congrats.

Looks perfect on it

Hmm, that’s actually pretty interesting, I never knew that🤔 Seiko 5’s were so cheap for the longest time! When I bought my Arabic-Indic Seiko 5 for around $120 I thought it was pushing it, but looking back, it was actually a pretty good deal, and the dial totally made it worth it!😄

I paid a lot more for mine. And my wallet sheds a tear every time I see one up for sale under $150. Uugghh
