Show them ๐Ÿข

So I've always been a Seiko fan and in particular a turtle fan, would love some inspiration from fello Cruncher's on what I should add to my collection of Turtles to complete? Cheers!

Love a Turtle, next step would be a Willard.

Bit better movement and diashield coating.

Buy second hand and pay no more than ยฃ550 for either of these.

The Dark Manta Ray Turtle caught my eye recently, but there's the Ninja Turtle too that looks pretty cool

I don't know if this one counts because I assembled it myself, but it has an NH35 in it.

Love that!

I'm a big fan of my Mini Turtle. It's smaller than a regular turtle but not by a ton. A have the JDM black dial version which has a splash of red.

Iโ€™ve got 30 seikos, but the turtle and Willardโ€™s account for 10 of themโ€ฆ love them!! Maybe a samurai or the slim turtles released over the last 12 months, the glacier dial one is a beauty!

I second the motion for a Samurai!

And a touch of gold ๐Ÿช™ I got this model too it's my fav

Get something OG, preferably JDM. You can get a nice (late 70s / early 80s) 6306 from Japan for <$1000 (upper left of photo, left of tuna). Or if you want to big, get a 6306 Scubapro 450 (lower left of photo).

Went with the vintage 6309 ๐Ÿข. I bought this off a Navy diver that used this in the service. It's a birth year watch and just one month older than it.

Fun fact, a group of turtles is called a "bale". Here is my bale:

The Golden Turtle is just a fun watch to wear while the dial treatment on the Save the Ocean series is extraordinary.
