    I joined the Tuna class this week. The bracelet is fine, but I like it on a NATO as well:

    Correct. To ask the question, is to know the answer. :cool:

    What sort of price are you looking at?
    Starbuy.com.au currently have it at AU$599 shipped but have daily and weekend sales.
    https://www.starbuy.com.au/seiko-prospex-tuna-automatic-divers-200m-mens-watch-srpe29k-srpe29k1
    It was on offer for $499 earlier this month.
    From an email on 6th Nov:

    Always worth an email to Deepak to see if he can re-run that offer. Generally works by using the model number as the discount code once he sets it up. I know he set up a deal for 10x green Sumo's earlier today at the request of someone on another forum I use.
    https://www.ozbargain.com.au/node/582895 (I'm a tight arse :D)

    I've bought the PADI Turtle for $325 and SNE543J Solar 'Tuna" for $299 from them on deals.

    That's an interesting one. Are the hands really black, or is it just the photo? Got a link?

    Great story with a sad ending, thanks for sharing ;)

    Here you have my latest addition, a Seiko 6105-8110 from march 1975 ;)

    what did I say 2 years ago? Great condition 65-72 Seikos. Esp the classics are a great investment.

    Vintage Seiko's are certainly racing up the price charts. As always the top condition watches are fetching great prices.

    One can only imagine what an earlier NOS 6105-8110/9 Proof/Proof would fetch if they are out there!

    Wow !!!
    US$10K+

    There were a few doubts about this one over on DWC
    http://www.thedivewatchconnection.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=70&t=71308

    I've got a couple of "reasonable" ones tucked away on original rubber; one chocolate bar and one waffle. No caseback stickers or tags but...
    Better check-in on them :cool:
