I always liked these and still have one...
... the SLQ007J, which is steel with steel bracelet. I bought it new in the year 2000. I recall experiencing the common problem in which the storage device didn't hold a charge, so I returned it to Seiko (under original warranty) for repair and it has been fine since then. It's very legible, a nice size for a small wrist, and I like the substantial weight. I haven't worn it (for more than a few minutes) in years! Thanks for posting this and for the link to your older thread, which I hadn't seen.

One of those watches...
That you have poisoned me with but which I do not own yet. They get offered in Europe occasionally at wildly differing price levels and twice I have been on the verge of getting one. Maybe one day... So sadly cannot help you yet but will definitely eagerl...
The Darth Vader of the series
Not sure if I have ever seen the black model - very cool!
Well said!
And heavy as an M1 Abrams! The rotor makes this very specific spinning noise, very mechanical which I think suits the watch.
Thanks for showing us your watch
Mine original's titanium and very heavy for that material. The newer one, 44-45 mm in steel with an enormous crystal, is the heavyweight of my watch collection. Cheers, Mike

Thanks for digging out the photo and watch
I see you've been around a long time. I take it you have other watches too - any more Seikos? Cheers,
Never owned another Seiko, but ...
... I have visited the NYC Seiko boutique several times in the past few years (mostly with other watch enthusiasts who've been interested in Seiko), and I'd love to see a Credor Eichi in person!
