Seiko Orange Monster

[T.K.C.]

Here are some pix of my recently acquired Orange Monster. FYI, I have 7 inch wrists.

Great looking watch! Thanks so much for the wrist shot.

My first purchase in the Army at the Post Exchange in 1978 was a Seiko Divers model, the automatic one for a whopping $110.00 which was expensive not only for a watch, but especially for a Seiko. But it did take everything I dished out for 12 years till I gave it to my best buddy for a gift.

Mine runs a little fast, but I love it.

Easy fix, open the back, and there is a tiny screw in there with a scale marked + on one side, - on the other, turn it towards the minus about a hairs width and see what happens.

If you like BIG divers watches!

Here's my Russina Diver GMT. At 56mm overall....it's HUGE! I have a 7in wrist as well.

I paid $260 for mine at the PX at Ft Campbell in early 2003 before I shipped to Iraq. I still own it. Runs great. My first automatic watch.

Excellent timepieces all! I have a Solar Eco-Drive that is quite large. I love it being a BIG guy. 9" wrist. It is one tough watch! My Wife has always said I could have a Rolex when I turn 50. Next year baby, Next year!

Nice purchase! I have a black Monster that I've had for three years now, and I simply love it. It needed a bit of tweaking, but now keeps very accurate time. It's pretty darn tough, too. I think you'll be surprised at how long the luminescent paint holds light.
