Edit: The 2 Seiko 5 Sports are now $329 each.
Some quiet price drops from Starbuy.
Cheapest ever for the Great White Samurai I believe, would have jumped on it already if I wasn’t holding out for the Great White Turtle (hint hint, Starbuy).
Aside from the dial (I could write paragraphs on that along), the Great Whites also have engraved markers on circular-etched bezel (vs smooth printed bezel on regular Sammys and Turtles), as well as a shark fin inspired second hand.
Two of the new Seiko 5 sport bracelet models are also cheapest around at $339 (credit to henrydt) edit: $329 now
SRPD51K (Blue dial, steel bracelet)
SRPD55K (Black dial, steel bracelet)
Picked up the black-dialed one from Angus & Coots for $349 a few weeks ago and have to admit I’m enjoying it much more than I thought I would. The watch wears very well due to the slightly smaller case and looks good imo.
These new 5 Sports received a lot of flaks from watch enthusiasts due to a few design choices but personally they’re perfect for your typical desk divers like myself.
As per usual, free Express shipping from Starbuy.
Thanks for the post zonra! I messaged Deepak for a deal on the SARB033, but has anyone spotted this piece in the wild for a discount?
I don't expect the 2017 pricing but something sub $400 would be nice.
