Exciting stuff: this is going to be my last extravagant watch purchase of the year. Picked it up from the AD last night.
Seiko Presage SPB215 limited edition. Part of their Studio Ghibli anime collaboration for the film Laputa Castle in the Sky.
Planning to take some unworn product...
Went to the Dark side and picked up a Chinese KO Hulk off of Amazon for $100. ?
Uses an off the shelf Seiko automatic movement. Bought it for shits & giggles & pure curiosity, also plan to hop in the pool sometime and see if it'll still work after taking a dip. ?
And even has a clear case...
A closer look at my pieces:
Shinola Monster Automatic Diver
Grand Seiko SBGA375 Spring Drive
Casio G-Shock GMA-S2100 'Casioak'
Grand Seiko SBGA413 'Shunbun' spring drive
Good luck on the Daytona, especially if you're trying to buy at retail price.
I have my ambitions set much lower and eyeing the new 2021 Omega Speedmaster or the Tudor Black Bay Chrono, Panda dial.
So I recently got into the high horology game the last year or so, here's my current humble collection:
Shinola automatic Monster Diver watch
Grand Seiko SBGA413 Spring drive
Casio GMA-S2100 G shock aka the 'Casioak'
