Nice shots! I agree, it is really nice, I find them worth every cent. Here the black hand grenade ;-)

Here’s a sidelight angle to show the “grenade” dial. Muted army green Thanks for looking. Best, Echi ...

Seiko SBDY049 ...  

Ah you have the black one, nice. Wonder if your cyclops align. Mine is a bit off. Such is Seiko :-) (nt)

After being well advised I got a JDM and it is flawless

Many experienced Seiko buyers always get their models from Japan domestic market (JDM) it is apparently the only way to get a flawless Seiko In fact a friend of mine who also wanted this King Turtle bought it local, he also has a misaligned Cyclops.

Ah that did cross my mind :-) (nt)

Is it possible to remove the cyclops? I think it would look far nicer. [nt]

Yep. But not easy. I've seen vids where they used a light torch to take it out. That or with a soldering iron. And it takes awhile too (nt)

Very nice, I do like the additional detail this dial adds. Was thinking about this green version myself but haven’t gone for it yet. [nt]

I hesitated myself. Friend of mine thought the dial was a bit busy but then when i came across the words "grenade dial" in some vid, I was hooked :-) (nt)

Loving your green grenade. This week I am wearing my Seiko 5 Sports 7S36C day / date export only model that was (re)-imported by a brick & mortar shop... love the day / date function... Casey

That Seiko 5 of yours is a great no worries watch. Perfect for Nagano :-) (nt)
