Re: All members,please come in & introduce youselves
Hi all,



i'm really new in this watch hobby thing and It all started for me with a christmas gift from my wife last year Dec. It was a SRP043K. The initial days of this watch on my wrist was like having a crush, i couldn't help it but kept checking the time unusually often just to catch a gleam of it. I was fascinated and started to find out more about the watch and i was surprised to find many extensive reviews on the SRP on the internet. Being better informed, I started paying attention to its finer details, not only aesthetically but also its inner beauty.



My first love....







Life got complicated.... I knew i'm not going to settle with one and true enough...... :lol:







Soon after...







I know i'm serious about it..... :twisted:







My current Seiko collections... :D

Re: All members,please come in & introduce youselves
Thanks bro! I guess what makes the hobby interesting is the ever pursuit for new desires. Currently in pursuit for a MM300 and hopefully i will learn enough from you all seniors to start venturing into vintage pieces.
Re: All members,please come in & introduce youselves
Nice pieces Mario.... and welcome to Seiko Club :)

Love what you buy, Buy what you love! Hello, and nice diver collection, Mario; there's some good quality there! :)
Re: All members,please come in & introduce youselves
Dear everyone.. Pardon my late intro.. I'm new to horology and I don't really consider myself a collector.. I will normally just buy those that i like..



what's appealing to me abt watches, especially Seiko, is the never ending potential to customize (mod) your watch, and the result of a truly personalized model... :P



Hence do pardon my noob qustions and am looking forward to fellow seniors' guidance.... :)

Re: All members,please come in & introduce youselves
I buy and sell watches with no specific ideas or knowledge in the past.

Buy when I like the design and sell when I found them again after cleaning the house.



Maybe, lately I was free again after a mad rush on my work.

I browsed swx and bought 2 pieces of seiko.

They are known as UFO and bullheads.



These 2 are my first pre owned seiko. Vintage or not, I can't tell.

I fell in love with them, even they are not new, there is something about them that drawn me towards them.

That was yesterday only.....

So I started going through the web and saw alot more nice seiko, it was unbelievable.

And then, I found this great place.

Here I am. I hope I can learn from u guys!



Thanks for this forum too.

welcome ivan



UFO & Bullhead are iconic vintage pieces, congrats on having great foresight to have these 2 models as ur 1st & 2nd watches!



These are considered vintages, automatic chronographs. 6138s are generally beautiful models to collect, I myself is trying to complete the 6138 family as well, slowly though as I love 6138 chronographs ;)



pls post pics of ur UFO & Bullhead :mrgreen:

Sad to say I don't have a collection to speak of, neither the knowledge to spare. Registered partly to support and also looking for a seiko as my next watch. I am sure this forum will be a good source of information (can't wait to explore the marketplace :twisted: :twisted: )

Re: All members,please come in & introduce youselves
Hi Everyone, I am new to the forum, happy to have found a local Seiko fan club!



I was recently given a Seiko Sumo for my birthday and developed a curiosity for the watch and the history of the company that manufactures it.



Glad to meet everyone, hope to make some friends, share and discuss watch related topics.
