A cushion case on a sixties-era dive watch with a friction-fit bezel. No, it's not a Vostok, it's the Seiko SRPK17 1968 reissue review.

Seiko's SRPK17 may have been the easiest purchase decision I've made in a very long time. The Seiko SRPK17 is a limited edition watch that was release...

I can't personally stomach the idea of any of my money ending up in the coffers of Putin's government. This is coming from a guy wearing a Ushanka. 

commented on What’s your favorite case size? ·

I found that I gravitate to 42 to 45mm watches although I love the look and feel of 36 to 40mm watches. I have a 7.5 inch wrist and for my over all size, 42 to 45 doesn't look ridiculous. At least I don't think.

They're impressively cool. I didn't know that Citizen had a chronograph version of this watch. I'd like to see it. The strap Is a Marine Nationale style elastic strap. I picked it up off of Amazon for about $9.00USD. 

commented on Just bought a Seiko Arnie. Will it be too big? ·

I have the PADI Arnie snj027 and I have a 7.5 inch wrist. It's a big beast of a watch but magically it gets smaller the more you wear it. (Image failed to load!)(Image failed to load!)(Image failed to load!)

Seiko SRPC61K1. The BOTTLE CAP.

With a 45mm diameter, on paper, this thing is a monster.  It's really not. I don't think the short lugs are the reason it sits small even though it de...
