Part of Starbuy's Weekend Flash Sale.
The Street Series model SRPE29K in the Tan colourway is a good buy, and looks a lot better in person.
Automatic 4R36 movement
Unfortunately the companion piece the 31 Blue model is not listed.

I reckon a different strap could make it look alright.

Unless you've linked to the wrong watch, this one's a solar.
I see your auto and double down on solar. 😉
Confusingly, the SRPE29K seems to be available in both solar and auto. The Starbuy specs however state solar, so unless they advise otherwise, I'd assume you're getting a solar.
The photo itself states automatic on the dial.
@maverickjohn: Yes, I think the problem is an incorrect copy paste into the watch description which states solar. All other signs point to auto, including the price. Happy to concede this one is indeed an auto.
Gah, it seems to be a disease that's spreading…That listing also states "Seiko Prospex SRPE29K Solar Tuna Street Series" but then the specs say it's an auto. I have NFI any more.
The truth is out there. On Seiko's website.
Seiko does not sell the same reference with multiple different movements.
@boozed: All good, as acknowledged earlier. I got confused by multiple dealers seemingly using the same erroneous copy/paste of the product description (Seiko Prospex SRPE29K Solar Tuna Street Series).
It looks like Starbuy has updated their copy (I'm sure both the product description and the specs stated "solar" at one point"), but do a search for "Seiko Prospex SRPE29K Solar Tuna Street Series" and you will see what I mean. Here's some of the offenders;
Starbuy - now fixed, but the incorrect description still appears in search engine results

ShielsThe weird thing is, I have a Street Solar Tuna, its product code is SNE***, rather than SRPE***, so I don't know what I was thinking.
The Pepsi bezel! Great look

This would be my pick from the starbuy weekend sale
Is there a modern Bullhead automatic? I think they’re all quartz movements.
I really dislike the bullhead look.
It's actually one of the ugliest designs in my eyes. I can't imagine that concept will last long. I guess if you are a collector it might get you good money. But I may be surprised and this design may stick.
It's a design from like the 70s, haha.
So it may last… ;)
Oh wow, that is genuinely ugly lol
