    Summer is here (in the North at least), and there is that magic buzz in the air...of the birds...and the bees ... the wind in the leaves of the trees ... and all the lovely ladies (and bulgy blokes) wearing far less attire than in the last nine months ... sunglasses are being worn, and heads are being turned ... curves are being flaunted, as are tans ... and usually when that happens I flaunt my curves too ...

    ...by wearing my nice and orange curvaceous Seiko Sumo SBDC005 ofcourse :)

    In rekindling the annual honeymoon with this piece (its my summer watch), I cant help again to notice the crisp curves of the casework. Its beautiful.

    It is IMHO reminiscent of Grand Seiko, but far far cheaper (or was when I bought it a long time ago). Of all the watches in my collection, I honestly think this one has the best case.

    Just look at those curves and facets ...

    I think its marvellous. I also like the orange dial.

    Anybody else got some stunning cased watches to share? I could imagine this becoming a grand-seiko thread ... but there must be more ...
