Seiko SLA065 'Astrolabe' Save The Ocean
6/10 · It wants to be good · Mr JunWears fantastically and conforms to the wrist like nothing else, but the bezel is far too shiny and that astrolabe dial is disgusting.

Seiko SLA051 'Naomi Uemura'
9/10 · Beyond thunderdome · Mr JunA lovely papery dial and a bezel I do like, but the date between 4 and 5 isn't for me and the crown is a horrific thing to unscrew. It's a perfect match on the SLA017 bracelet, though.

Seiko SLA047 'Island Green'
9/10 · Beyond thunderdome · Mr JunAlmost mint, with a monobloc case of unmatched quality, though that unprotected triangle on the bezel worries me immensely.

Seiko SLA023 Marinemaster 300
9/10 · Beyond thunderdomeSame specs as the 047, not limited, with cases unmatched in my opinion and a bracelet that most people hate and we think is absolutely proper.
