My first Seiko ๐Ÿ˜

Bought ths vintage Seiko 5 for $40. It came with a gold bracelet so i replaced ย it with a navy blue croc leather/rubber read(Hybrid) strap with a matching gold buckle. Lovin it! What do u guys think?

Very nice! ย I like the strap rig much better than the bracelet!

Nice! Can't go wrong with a Seiko 5!

These older Seiko 5s are great little watches, with a very compact size and quite comfortable to wear. I'm sure you'll enjoy it greatly, especially at that price.

However, the rug in the background looks familiar, so I have to ask: Do they have IKEA in Kuala Lumpur?ย

We have 2 in Kuala Lumpur (Damansara & Cheras) and 4 in total in Malaysia.ย

Congratulations! Great Seiko ! Love it on the strapย

Definitely a good move to the strap. Nice find!

Congrats! That's a good find. Seiko 5s models have always been kinda the starter watch for anyone who is new to automatic watches. I got my gf a Seiko 5 as her first automatic. Lol

Don't sell it and keep it as a reminder how you got started.
