Seiko Prospex SRPB61K1
This was my first seiko that I bought new. Before that it was a 20 dollar vintage I found at a flea market. There's not much video or article about this watch when I first bought it and I think it's a shame because this is a really cool aviation watch from seiko. It is big at 44mm and 50mm lug to lug but I do have big wrist so I can definitely wear it. Somebody says it look like if Breitling and Hamilton had a baby and I can't unsee it. I love the slide rule bezel, the numeral, the hands, the white chapter ring, the single domed hardlex, and how much of a strap monster it is. And it was less than 180 bucks. One of my favorites out of the collection for sure.
Uni student, been collecting since my 16th birthday. None of my watches cost more than 190 USD but I'm really proud of my collection. Hope y'all have a great day while reading this.
I really like the dial format with just numerals and the date. Another Seiko to add to my list😂
That watch is stunning 😍

I don't think it has a name. I called it the prospex sky because they used to have a sea, land, and sky concept for their prospex line. But they rarely put out watches in the sky concept so I kinda adopt that name for just this watch.

I found :
Seiko SRPB61 Prospex Sky Pilot Aviator Beige Dial Automatic
I've also seen it called a Navitimer on other sites.
Beautiful.
And going for $450-550. Thanks for getting my hopes up like that. ;)

There's no way🫢. Here in my country there's three different store that sell it for 184 from just a quick search. I guess they don't sell these outside of asia??? But no I know a guy from canada that buy it for about 200-250

Probably from the similar designs as the Breitling navitimer. You know how it goes, seiko don't officially have a name unless somebody coin it and it become to iconic to ignore by seiko.
I had this one until recently… doesnt feel large at all, wearable and legible… Actually it had its 5 min of fame in Chrono24 article where mentioned alongside Breitling and a Hami… https://www.chrono24.com/magazine/pilots-watches-with-unusual-functions-p_64923/
Wow that is a beautiful watch! Good find

Thank you, I really like this watch
Thanks! Beautiful watch and now it's on my list. I hate seeing old out of stock listings at less than half of the eBay price but at least we are talking Seiko second hand/ grey market prices ($500).
Aren't we all

I guess they don't sell this in the US? We still have a handful of stock here
