I've one of these yella jobs. (T732-6k19)
Talk about others noticing/saying something about a watch...not like a fist pump 'n "yeah Seiko!" thing, it's more like what's that big yellow big chunk of a watch ya got there Bri? lol.
I like it, and take it swimming all the time without issue, but nothing deeper than 12 feet. (hair shy of 4 meters for those)

umm, and one of these kinda cheapish wannabie a rolex jobs I got for 25 years at work.
After a while I found I wasn't a big fan of gold and silver colour together. 'n "look at me" bezel is kinda weird for me.

You give them 25 years and they give you a Seiko 馃槖. At least there isn't a company logo on the dial.
Maybe you work for a Japanese company.....like Seiko?

And I still have the watch that got me into all of this in the first place. SNK809. It still gets worn at least one day per week.

This manual wind Sea horse is the only Seiko I have left. My dad sent it to me for Christmas 1967, when he was in Viet Nam. I had it serviced and replaced the cracked crystal, last year; it looks brand new.

After seeing this post, I realized the old Sea horse must be lonely so I just picked this up last week.

I love the Seiko 5s. I think they're fantastic watches for the money.

There is a logo on the back with 25 years engraved. (an international chemical company I retired from; 39 years)

Thanks for jogging my memory

Had this one box and paper sitting around for a few years. Think I have worn it once. I bought it to go overseas with work once and ended up forgetting it. Still got it as i just dug it out.

Bought this new in 1988 for myself. It's never needed repair, except a few bucks every couple of years to change the battery. Loved it in 88, and still have a fond spot for it now. Needs a new band, think I will get on that.
