I love Seiko divers. Unlike the Invicta and others they don't try to be anything more then they are which is a cheap, durable automatic that can take a beating. Too many other try to make their watch look just like a Sub and it's annoying IMO. I like the unique look of the Seiko watches. I've had a 009 and a black and orange Monster myself over the years. All were great watches. I won't be giving up my Omega for one anytime soon, but if I ever lost the Omega and couldn't afford another I'm pretty sure I could live contently with a Seiko diver on my wrist.

Anyone know if the ebay sellers in Singapore and Hong Kong that sell these watches are legit? I found the aforementioned SKX031 and SKX033 for $120.00 shipped. Is it worth it to pay another thirty bucks and buy elsewhere?

On a side note, are these 42mm divers monstrous on the wrist?

I have an Orange Monster which I am now going to put a Nato strap on. I've also got an SKX007 now as well. I've grown a new appreciation for Seikos. The Seiko dealer near me sees me on a weekly basis as I come in to window shop. Seems to have no known cure for my condition - other than to buy more Seikos.
