Help me spread the word! Seiko Cannonball SRPD35

Hi Everyone,

I'm trying to get the Seiko SRPD35 as well as the SRPD31/33 nicknamed as the Seiko Cannonball line. Can you guys help spread the word? I think this watch, like many Seiko model lines, is a unique and beautiful watch that deserves a nickname. Post, comment, etc. to help spread the word. If you have a watch review channel, maybe drop the word out there? Not sure how to get the word but I appreciate any and all help! Thanks everyone!!!😀

Not feeling it. 

Good luck in your quest, tho.

Thanks! I thought I might as well give it a try😊

Wow, thanks for the heads up (another watch for the list). It looks like a more tooly and affordable Alpinist. Is the lug to lug really the same as the case diameter (43mm)?

I wasn't feeling the cannonball name at first but if the lug to lug is the same as the case diameter, I get it especially with the odd protruding crown guard.

Yep! The case diameter and the lug to lug are the same. I do not have my calipers on me right now but using the ruler on my spring bar tool, the lug to lug may actually a 1mm shorter. Its pretty cool! And totally agree that it is like a more tooly and affordable Alpinist. I have never seen a SARB017 in the flesh but the SRPD35 I own with the pvd coating is all tool watch. I do own a SPB243 and that is definitely more of a dress watch!

PS I hope you can find one. they are hard to find new since they were discontinued either in 2020 or 2021.
