SEIKO fieldmaster, to hoot or not to hoot?

When I first saw the Fieldmaster from the internet, it didn't really appeal to me due to the compass bezel design which looks damn busy to me. Last Yr, I was offered fr an infamous flipper at a very good price, but i rejected without viewing. If i am not wrong, this model is very 冷门. (Astroboy, how to translat 冷门 in English huh?) It did not create much impact in the local market unlike tuna SBBN007. Dunno why...after seeing the SBDC013 in person... the more I look at it, the more it grows on me. IMHO, it is a well made time piece. Not so ugly as i thought in the past. Now...I am standing at a crossroad and can't decide which one to get? :oops:

To Hoot the Fieldmaster SBDC011 or SBDC013?? Or better don't hoot?

All input, thoughts, comments are greatly appreciated.

(pls dun tell me to buy both bcos Siao Lian Astroboy said i have age liao, got wife and kids to feed, cannot luan luan hoot) :lol:

I will opt for SS version, as I don't fancy PVD watches after owning 1 for a short while.

冷门 is Off-beat. The translation is very 蒙聋

I love these shrouded field masters, and hope to pick either one up used. I am slightly inclined towards the non-PVD though, but I've handled the PVD before and was quite satisfied that it isn't glossy like how some Seiko can be...

Try Big Time at Sim's Ave. I've seen it there before, though I don't know if they have stock of it yet. Irene will surely be able to order for you if you're really keen.
