Re: Seiko Blue Sardine
Guys. I just realised smth. The dial is very slightly off the mark by like .2 secs. Nt sure Can see fm this pic here. Idk would it be worthwhile to go back to thong sia to fixit? Can it be fixed in the 1st place by just ,moving the dial? Or the whole dial has to be replaced? When i,m looking straight at the watch, the centre line of the dial 12 marker is nearer with the right side of the white marker on the outer ring..

Did you manage to see if the chapter ring is aligned to the indices?

The pip doesn't seems to be the only misalignment fault there... the rest of the markers around the bezel are also misaligned. Perhaps one click accidentally turned?

Causeway Point, Vincent watch (1st floor) got both Blue sardine and Blue monster. 20%

Re: Seiko Blue Sardine
Lower end seiko divers can have a slightly more 'loose' bezel that may appear not as spot on with lume pip against 12 o'clock but it can usually be adjusted without a click. (Given up trying to have a very accurate one, that kind of price, it's ok if not zhun zhun and stays there, close enough live with it otherwise very very tiring).

Re: Seiko Blue Sardine
Any rubber or leather straps to recommend for the blue sardine. The seiko rubber is too long for my small wrist. Thks.

If u want to hv a blue rubber strap alternative, u might want to consider Hirsch Pure rubber straps. Comes in black, white and blue... Maybe others.



These are catatonic rubber straps. So it's much better than the cheaper silicone straps

Re: Seiko Blue Sardine
Those isofrane strap seem quite long as well...probably will check out those from hirsch. I guess black or blue color straps should goes well with the blue sardine. Any pics would be great.

No they don't, they're selling the blue tuna only and mentioned it's selling fast and no more stock in again soon. They said earlier in the week someone bought 3 pieces at one go.

Bonetto Cinturini rubber straps are great and very affordable. I've got two and can't be happier.
