Show off your Seiko 5

1 & 2: I believe this is a JO4039. It was my dad's watch which he bought in 1972.

I have kept changing the straps for my snk793 these days. Straps with lug width of 18mm normally come with buckle width of 16mm. In my eyes the straps are too slim for a man. No good. :-(

I then tried some 19mm straps, with the buckle width of 18mm. It is not difficult to put the 19mm strap on the snk793. I must say the result is excellent! The watch now looks FAR better! :-!

I am going to throw away all my 18mm straps. From now on I shall only use 19mm straps on my Seiko 5's. b-)

Below is my snk793 with 19mm straps. For comparison, I put 18mm straps next to it.

I finally settled down with these straps on my Seiko 5's. ;-)

Loving the vintage 5's. Here's mine. SNK803 on a pilot style strap, Inspired by some things I saw on the forum.

Are you just using a bright lamp for the photos? I was wondering if you had photos showing how blue it actually is out in regular daylight?

Yup. I took the photos under my desk lamp.

I just took two more in regular daylight. It depends on the angle you are looking at the watch. Under daylight, for most of the time, the dial is in dark blue. But it sparkles occasionally. ;-)

I found this old fogey on ebay. It's not perfect and the hands probably aren't original but I couldn't resist it as my first TV-dial.
