Seems I have not posted this one in 6,5 years… the Seiko Recraft SRPC15
When packing watches for the recent trip I decided on an unusual choice in the sense that it has not been on the wrist for ages and posted for even longer 🤷🏻♂️
The Recraft line was a bit of a blind alley in hindsight - seems to have petered out after a handful of references. But then again not a complete oddity in that sense…
The SRPC15 remains an interesting reference with its cushion flying saucer shaped case and possibly the most exotic OEM strap ever fitted to a Seiko watch (outside of the Galante line).
Any other Seikos on wrists this weekend?

As said…
Not a line that established itself fully. All the pieces were vintage inspired and quite some were limited editions (relatively large ones, though). Placed somewhere above the 5 in the hierarchy and below the Presage line I suppose.
The hands truly work indeed 😊👍🏻
The watch works quite well as a coherent whole and the lume is reasonably solid. The look is quite timeless, even if there is a vintage reference each of these are based on 👍🏻
Looking back…
Seems like I bought it on the 6th of January 2018 and I remember that it was completely fresh - they didn’t even have prices sorted on the day 😂
The mystery Seiko 😂
I believe one other WPS member posted one but haven’t seen it here or elsewhere in years 😊 Here my initial post: www.watchprosite.com which has a bit more detail 👍🏻
