Seiko Alpinist SPB121

I have such a love/hate relationship with this watch. I ended up selecting this over the Sinn 556i last year for my birthday. It's a great daily driver however, it lacks a certain something that I cannot put my finger on.  Rolex explorer alternatives may all feel that way... hence the term alternative lol.

Have owned the Alpinist and flipped it. Have a Sinn 556A-RS and will never sell it. The Sinn is more toolish but on another level for quality

She may be on the chopping block. Love the splash of red on the rs! Thank you for commenting

What's the issue?  I think it looks absolutely amazing!

Try it on a leather strap!  You might fall back in love 😉

It’s the white date wheel, anyone know if there are black date wheels available for the NH35?

It’s funny - I am about to sell my 556i to buy an Alpinist
