They are super-duper accurate. Each time I check mine during DST adjustment, it is running ~5 spy, incredible for a 'standard' quartz.

The PO does edge it for me as well. No denying though that Seikos case work is absolutely masterful (those Zurastu ninjas should be well chuffed with their output). Shame the PO isn't an 'off-the-shelf' colourway, would be a top-seller I think.

Looking good, that man!

This has come back to me once more


I swapped to its one time replacement later in the day to compare the two

The strap has just arrived from Pete (DM). I think this will be another settled combination. On the normal Speedy it would perhaps end up looking too black.

Just deciding whether to remove the leather patch.

@nbg - good pick up Neil (strap that is).

OK, the label is not strictly correct, but it adds a pop of colour and character. I'd leave it on.

Thanks, gents.

Happy Friday! Sugar shack donuts and the Seaforth to start off the day for me.

That Seaforth isn't too shabby either

Afternoon switch...

Same watch or same model?

I like that a lot, really suits the mesh bracelet

I get what you are saying about a bit of colour Guy, but having worn it for a couple of hours it wasn't sitting as well as the one, without a patch, that I have for my Pelagos. Pete mentioned he sold it because it was a bit stiff, so the penny dropped and stitching duly unpicked and patch removed, it now fits better.

Think I may order a sand or olive colour one from Carl, to go with it.

Same watch Neil. I came to realise that there is such a thing as having too many divers! Especially when you don't do any actual diving
Buying the blue Trident in the sale was the death of the SKX for me.

Not sure if the strap works but it's this for the evening.
