Just got my first Seiko! My first watch into the watch world.

Discussion

Back in 2006~ I spent $500 on a Burberry watch. It is hefty and the band was of high quality. I didn't know it was considered a fashion watch. I guess I was just chasing the brand name and it looked and still looks very nice today.

Well the watch above finally fell apart and the bottom plate won't get back on flush. Anyways, I plan on keep wearing this on nice occasions.

I can't imagine spending $1,000+++ on a watch. Well, I can. But you know, I don't even go out often nowadays.

I found the chepaest Seiko watch on Amazon. SUR525 as a carefree daily driver. With a t-shirt or to my white-collar work or even formal events.

I'm now super excited? I lowkey don't even like wearing watches, but I just want a piece of quality historic brand. It's a bracelet, so it's far more durable than the trendy leather straps. I like how it's modern and big at 40mm+. Watches used to be teeny in late 80s/90s right?

It arrives tomorrow and I can't wait!
