Making some tough decisions to let some watches go in order to consolidate and fund the next big thing. Prices include CONUS shipping. Cross-posted.

From the Nodus folks: The Sector Dive is a reimagination of the skin diver - a type of watch used for diving that doesn’t require a breathing apparatus. With the Sector Dive, the perennial features of a skin diver (smaller diameter, Arabic numerals on the dial, shallower water resistance) are all retained but infused with modern styling and engineering.
The Sector Dive is designed and assembled in Los Angeles.

Nodus Sector Dive Red Tide w stainless steel bezel $450
Really cool watch, worn a couple times. I really like it, but I’ve decided to keep just one Nodus. Watch is in nearly new condition, with a single, faint desk-diving mark visible on the clasp. The dark red fume dial is darker and moodier in real life than pictures. The lume is awesome! Full factory set included, with boxes, book and all extra links. Strap pictured is not included—just the bracelet.

Seiko 5 Sports SNZJ53 $275
Regardless of your opinion on the new Seiko 5 line, the previous generation from 10 or so years ago had a lot more options and tons more personality. This was my first “daily driver” automatic watch and I still think it’s great. Comes with the full kit: box, book, tag, and original bracelet. I really started exploring NATO straps with this watch, so the bracelet was not worn much and has been in that little baggie for a few years. It will come mounted on the Bond NATO. The 7S36 beating inside continues to do its job, still keeping good time and providing plenty of power.

Seiko Presage SRPB67J $300
This Presage hits all the right notes for that pilot-style watch vibe. It’s got a very wearable 40.5mm size, and looks great on just about any strap. I even tried it on a SARB033 bracelet, and it was so cool! It also comes with its full kit: box, papers, tag, etc. It is mounted on its original black leather band, which is really nice—much better than standard Seiko bands of the same era, and it will come with the Ute / Toxic Shiznit black and red NATO. It’s in great shape; I hardly wore it. I hope the next owner gives it the love it deserves!

Vintage Seiko 7009-8129 - $125
This little guy (37-ish mm) is unserviced and comes with its original beads of rice bracelet, which fits a 7.25” wrist. I polywatched the crystal and it looks awesome. The crisp dial looks great, with near-perfect lume and numerals, and the watch runs, keeps good time, and has a pretty good power reserve, as-is. The quickset date works perfectly, but the day is a little sticky on some days when it’s being set—it advances properly if it’s running / changing naturally. This is one that deserves to be serviced and preserved; it’s a great example.
