Parting ways is never easy
My Seiko "twins" shall be dearly missed. But I know its the right thing to do. Thank you for the many years of joy and pleasure you both have given me. But now it is time to give the same joy to your new found master... sniff...
A final wrist shot before handing them over to their new owner this afternoon
Will I regret selling these wonderful Seiko "twins"? I suspect I probably might one day.
Often the "regret" question has been asked before and I've never thought much about it because I thought I would never sell my watches. But the last month I have been letting go a few pieces to consolidate my collection. Simple a case of not enough hands and time to wear them all. For now I know it is the only right thing to do instead of keeping them in my watch box and winding them up occasionally. I would rather them be out there in the wild...all wound up and serving its new owner
Never had a chance to share them with you Seiko guys here on Purists, so at least one last chance to do so now.

A great watch with a strong movement
Both runs strong and within +-10sec despite not having been serviced since I got them 6 years ago. The new owner plans to service and clean them, am sure it would last another generation without problems. Like u said, if the pain of regret is too strong.....
That's an elegant pair of Seikos, Gary. Been wearing . . .
. . . one of mine lately . . . . . . which used to grace Dad's wrist for many years. ...
Ahh that beautiful Weekdater
That's really nice and even more so if it used to be your Dad's. Watches like these are heirlooms. I like how the Day and Date windows are split. Usually for Seiko, they are together. And the Day is spelled in full. I am still keeping 3 of my Seikos, whic...
