Hi Guys,
I have a classic automatic Seiko dive watch from the Prospex Dive collection that is affectionately know as the Turtle.
I bought this back in 2020 and wore it quite regularly at first, but I've bought other watches since then and in the last year I have a Rolex style dive watch that I wear 80% of the time - so I figure its time to let this one go.
It's an automatic and it keeps perfectly good time (I'll test that now that I've got it for sale).
It comes with two straps. The original super soft and supple Seiko rubber strap and the very well know after market bracelet from the Uncle Seiko company. Its called the Senator and I think it really elevates the presence of this time piece.
Condition: I'd say its very good to excellent but not next to new.
SPECS:
Case Diameter: 44.3mm
Case Material: Stainless Steel
Crystal: Seiko Hardlex
Water Resistance: 200M / 660ft
Dial: Flat Black, Lumed (Green LumiBrite)
Bracelet: Black Silicone Strap + the Uncle Seiko oyster style steel bracelet
Movement: Seiko 4R36, Automatic
41-Hour Power Reserve
Day & Date
Hacking/Stop Seconds Function
Wind via Crown
The PRICE is for the watch + the newish bracelet. I'm not splitting the items up.
The original RRP on the hang tag says $495 but I think I paid $450 for it, five years ago (I could be wrong on that detail).
I bought the bracelet about three months ago for $100 and its only been worn about three or four times since then.
Specs for the Uncle Seiko 'Senator' bracelet:
Lug width to Buckle: 22mm to 18mm
Length: 180mm
Min length after adjusted : 120mm
Buckle : Solid 316L Stainless Steel 20mm Double Flip-Lock Diver Clasp
Thickness: 3.20mm
Net Weight: 92gram
If you are interested, please shoot me an email via CL - I'd like to give out my phone/text number but the amount of auto text scamming makes that prohibitive.
Transaction: I'm looking for a relatively local, in person, cash or PayPal only deal (I don’t have Zelle, Venmo, etc.).
Re: PayPal - if you want to pay for the watch using PayPal then please be prepared to pay more for it than the cash price. As the recipient of money in a PayPal transaction I pay a fee slightly more than 3% of the transaction amount and that is a cost I don't wish to bare.
