The blue 605 has just gone onto my "get" list.
NEW Seiko 5 Monsters!
Just got an email from yeomanseiko with regards to the release of new Seiko 5 'monsters'!
My first impression is: WOW! Raised lume dots, big 'peaceful-looking' indices that are well proportioned (look at the 3 o'clock lume detail!), 4r36 movement (hacking & handwinding)!
God i can already imagine the nuclear lume these will output..
Not 100% sure on size.. looks slightly bigger than the current Monsters (maybe 44mm?). Yeoman lists diameter to be 47mm including the crown.
I wish the case was brushed and not polished.. and that the bracelet had solid end links; but i guess they can't make a Seiko 5 too attractive that it'll knock out some of their higher end lines.
Here are some additional specs:
Diameter: 47mm including crown
Thickness: 13mm
Lug width: 22mm
Lug to lug: 49.5mm
Water resistance: 100m
I think it's pretty safe to predict that these will inevitably earn a cult following.
What are your thoughts?
