Admiring this in the car
Apr 13, 2021,21:16 PM
Seemingly the best lighting for any watch is in the car, and this one looks better with the Seiko blue strap I put on it, IMO.
Unfortunately, the blue is not clearly seen here. One of my most worn watches over the last 5 years, and the big date is useful to me, especially on the work days of the week, and I like that itโs done properly and not look like an afterthought on the dial.
Have a good week ahead.

Small little city car, a Proton Iriz if it interests you ;-) Great for the city commute and tight parking spaces

Problem is that the rubber that came with it doesnโt fit quite as well with the deployant so I swap it out sometimes but have put a generic pin buckle on the rubber for when I use it
Big is relative ;-)

I was at the AD today checking out the Classique 5277, and at 38mm, which reads smaller than this Marine, it wears much bigger - for some strange reason, the lugs are more straight and resulted in the straps literally hanging off my wrist. Disappointing, ...
Thanks!

Thank you, my friend

I find the current Marine family not as cool with the guilloche on the dial and rotor missing
A classic.

absolutely love this piece. So many gorgeous details. Nothing on it seems like an after thought. Not a big fan of the numeral styling on the newer variants though.
This watch is the perfect blend of

Good point on the navy blue strap - Iโm wearing this now on the blue strap that I pulled off my Seiko Presage Blue Enamel.... ;-)
