Thanks! It's beautiful, I've never seen this Alpinist version before. Very cool.
That's a really cool dial on your Seiko!
I have both, although it's the all black version (SSK025) of the field watch. I love the SSK001 and I probably wear it more than any other watch. I like the SSK025, but it turns out the dial is a little too busy for my taste. I decided to sell it and in fact I listed it on eBay last night. But I don't think you can wrong with either one, they're both well built, good looking watches.
