Wow first picture is awesome.
I searched the usual places could not find it (Speedtimer creations: SRQ051 (blue dial)) on sale anywhere.
Will keep looking
thanks
Very nice models indeed, do we have an idea of the foreseen price tag ? Could well be a nice option
They are lovely…
Even if the movement means they might be a tad thick. But the 25/15 accuracy rating is a bit of a surprise - surely Seiko should aim for better?
That’s their "save-on-warranty-costs" range; generally they do better, in my experience
