New watch day

  1. Just picked up a new to me SPB187, kind of by accident. I was looking for an SKX for nostalgia reasons and this happened to pop up (purchased a 009 as well ๐Ÿ˜‚). Ironically I had just seen a Seiko mod version of a watch similar to this and thought it looked really cool but Iโ€™m not super into mods. Overall I really love the color of the dial and overall design, the bracelet was a little heavy and the clasp was a little janky (which the seller didnโ€™t mention of course). However, I was already planning on probably ordering a MM 300 clasp which has a much better ratcheting extension so thatโ€™s what Iโ€™m waiting for. Until that arrives I threw it on a NATO strap I had laying around. Not sure it will be a keeper, I still want to experience it on the bracelet with a clasp that works but it is a great piece.ย

I think I just havenโ€™t bonded with it yet because of the original clasp and the fact that the seller didnโ€™t mention it๐Ÿคฌ. I bet once itโ€™s on the bracelet with a good clasp it will be a different story. Itโ€™s just a little too top heavy for a NATO.ย

The pop of red on the second hand looks awesome and you can't wrong with a #seiko diver on a NATO strap!

I have a SKX, but dayum this one looks fire too!ย 
I had mine also on a Nato, but quickly changed it back to the bracelet.ย 
Just works better for me;)

Noice piece. I think youโ€™ll bond with it and wear it often. It fits you well.ย
