Hey guys! The Blue Lagoon Samurai and Turtle are coming soon! Luckily I've got my hands on a special preorder, so a youtube video will be coming soon so you all can get a good look! These things look great. I know It's been a while since I've made any video reviews or anything but I promise I'm gonna be posting first looks, sneak peaks, etc a lot more often so keep an eye out!

Anyway. Here's the specs:

• Case Size: 43.8mm
• Bezel: Unidirectional
• Features: Date Aperture at 3 o clock
• Water Resistant: 200 metres
• Power Reserve: 41 Hours
• Dial Color: Blue
• Strap: Stainless Steel Bracelet with three fold clasp and secure lock

• Release date: 28th February 2017

What are your thoughts, fellas?

I saw this on another site a week or two ago and it took every ounce of restraint not to pre-order one.

Given the popularity of the Samurai, these things will sell out quick, if they haven't already. Looking forward to seeing your review!

Here's some additional news - Introducing Seiko's New "Blue Lagoon" Dive Watches • Gear Patrol

I just saw this on Flipboard. I like that coin edge bezel. I like it size too. I wonder what the lug width is?

 

[commanche]

Seems like it's cheaper than turtle. What gives?

 

[Dj Braz]

Gorgeous!

What, no PADI version has been announced yet? Come on Seiko.

 

[BerutoSenpai]

Show us the link to the youtube video please . Awesome watch btw. How much did it cost?

 

[hkshaun]

Hmmm, good looking watch. Nice shade of blue and I like the hands but it is just a bit too big for me to place an order.

Don't give them that idea as they might just do it, Padi Samurai.

I like the color, not the larger size. Those look like the hands straight from the monster, while they work well on that watch, I think they are too short on this bigger watch. Can a 6000 pieces run still be called limited editions?

Not for me unfortunately, it looks like it has an identity crisis.

It should have been titanium, and what made them put those hands on the watch?

The Prospex logo and this style of handset are appearing on too many watches in the Seiko lineup, it really needed to be true to the original.

Could you tell me what site you saw it for pre-order?

 

[fishfingers]

I just preordered mine. The second I saw it I knew I had to have it.

The color scheme may not be for everyone but to me it reminds of snorkeling on a coral reef in the Caribbean.

I can't wait.

Oh, OP, let's see that YouTube video.

Seiko Australia told me the SRPB11k will be $825AUD with additional strap and the SRPB09k will be $750AUD released in Feb.

The "turtle" version has also been announced. Looks great.

 

[FozzyBoy]

No risk dealing with them, they have a chain of shops and are in the North of England. Nice people to deal with in my experience.
