Good Wednesday evening to you all.
I just received a big box from Marc at Island Watches. ^L^
<br>
<br>
<br>
Inside are fascinating newspaper articles, of interest to all New Yorkers, not just residents of Long Island! *L*
<br>
<br>
<br>
But of even more interest is this white box! :-D
<br>
<br>
<br>
Wow, looks like I bought a Seiko! -L- How strange! ;-)
<br>
<br>
<br>
Yes, I say again, "Seiko", do you read me? Seiko, Seiko, Seiko, over!
Okay, let's get it open!!
<br>
<br>
<br>
Awww, Marc included a nice polishing cloth, but it has jammed the lid! ºLº
Let me get that out of the way for you...
<br>
<br>
<br>
Ahh, much better, and now you see why I called it the Deja Vu Unveiling, it is another Seiko "Spork" Diver/Pilot watch, model SRP043K!
<b>"But Thomas,"</b> you ask, <b>"Why did you buy another uh, SRP043K?"</b> @[email protected]
Well, I wanted to keep a stock one for my "museum", so this one is for a super secret mod I'm planning, where I'm going to have a 6r15 movement installed, along with a Sinn 656 style second hand! ^L^
Oh drat! It was supposed to be super secret!! #L# Oh well, would you like a closer look?
<br>
<br>
<br>
Here is the close up! This model does have one big problem though...
<br>
<br>
<br>
... you have to be careful where you put it at night, or you may have trouble getting to sleep! ^L^ (The lume is greener than this shows, by the way.)
<br>
<br>
<br>
Thanks for stopping in, I hope you liked the show!
