    I love the red GMT hand on the 001 and 003, but I already have a black-dial Seiko 5 so that's why I am keen on the 005.

  Make it like $399 and I wouldn’t resist!

    Yeh for $500+ I would rather get a better quality homage like this San Martin

      A steeldive GMT is next on my radar.

          @itsmoe: SD1993 - search on AliExpress for cheapest and the bezel colour options.

            @Muzeeb: Oh if you ask me what's one thing I hate about watches, it is the Mercedes hands. If they made it with similar hands to the Seiko, I would buy one right away.

            I have the Steeldive 1970 and the date isn't centered in the date window which annoys the crap out of me.

            The lume on it is next level though.

              @itsmoe: Take the caseback off & see if you can shift the movement a bit.

              Agree, lume is awesome.

                @WatchNerd: I tried I think the date wheel needs to be re-adjusted but I haven't taking the hands before so I don't want to risk it.

        Yeh you will definitely look like a fool if you are at a very poshy event and people attending knew a thing or two about watches, but most people are clueless and don't care.

        Quality watch though.

    Yeh I have another Seiko and I scratched the glass a bit. I will have to get a sapphire for it and replace it soon.

      I always think though with a watch if you like it it's so personal just buy the damn thing and wear it with pride cheap doesn't always mean happy in the watch world.

      Etherkai on 07/06/2023 - 13:41

      I'd love to do this if I end up getting the 005, since I absolutely hate the cyclops window.

      • 

        itsmoe on 07/06/2023 - 13:58

        Yeh I'm not vibing it either. I feel like it's more of a Rolex thing.

  Just know that its not made in Japan. Movement made in Malaysia and casing in Hong Kong. Realised this after getting one from StarBuy.

    K at the end of the model number means Malaysia.

    The price on this is too much. I got my Seiko 5 for about $130. They are not dive watches.
