Budget Seiko Tuna anyone? The ALBA AL4247

Just got this watch a few days back and slapped it on a rubber strap. Decided on the pepsi colorway as I only have one other pepsi in my collection.

The watch costs less than $100 new and it is designed in a similar fashion to the Seiko Tuna. (Alba is a Seiko sub brand by the way, started in 1979).

The bezel measures 40mm and if you include the 'shroud' the watch will measure about 43mm. The lug to lug is about 48mm with a lug with of 20mm.

The Y676 movement powering this watch is essentially the Seiko 7s26 automatic movement.

An easy wearing sports dive-style watch in my opinion. Oh, the bezel is bi directional with no clicks and the crown is push-pull by the way. :)
