HewesYourDaddy Posted October 12, 2018 Report Share Posted October 12, 2018 As with many things that I own that are saltwater oriented, I’ve begun collecting watches again - primarily diver’s watches. My first ever dive watch was a Seiko from the late 80’s that I no longer have (they had issues with crown seals that allowed flooding). I’m looking to replace that watch with another similar Seiko of the same vintage/style. If any of you have one laying around that you would sell (working or non working condition), please send me a PM. Thanks. Greg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HewesYourDaddy Posted November 20, 2018 Author Report Share Posted November 20, 2018 Still looking for a mid 80’s to early 90’s Seiko Diver if anyone has got one laying around. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HewesYourDaddy Posted November 20, 2018 Author Report Share Posted November 20, 2018 Oh no, Outlaw! I sold one identical to that not very long ago. The Seiko Monster is waaaay too big for my skinny wrist. When you described it to me a while back, I didn’t think it may have been this one.

Nag Juice Posted November 20, 2018 Report Share Posted November 20, 2018 I have 3 of those. One my dad gave me, another I bought in Bahrain and the last one is my daily driver. It's cheaper to replace than fix I've found out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HewesYourDaddy Posted November 20, 2018 Author Report Share Posted November 20, 2018 Nag, I love the 7002/SKX series of Seikos. Was my very first true dive watch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah I have a problem with Seikos. The automatics keep terrible time but I love the look. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nag Juice Posted November 20, 2018 Report Share Posted November 20, 2018 This one is kinetic and I’ve had it for 2-3 years. I love it. Keeps really good time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HewesYourDaddy Posted November 20, 2018 Author Report Share Posted November 20, 2018 Got this Citizen FUGU (pufferfish) remake of the classic NY0040 series the other day. Really enjoying it. Only made for the Asia market and limited to 1000 pieces in each color. I bought two. Gonna sell the other. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The old one I use to have ran great until something happened with the rotor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fishmanjj Posted November 26, 2018 Report Share Posted November 26, 2018 This was my favorite dive watch for over 25 years....many dives over the years at 100 ft to 125 ft. Recently it started eating batteries after only about a month....I tried several brands of batteries....but, I guess I need to send it a a watch repair person. Any suggestions .?
