Thought this was worth a post because it's the same price as 2yrs & 9 months ago.
Seiko Auto King Turtle SRPF77K… $499 delivered.

Seiko Auto King Turtle SRPK01K (SS bracelet)… $578.00 delivered.

Unless they are really dainty it is still wearable. The lug-to-lug is very practical and the case bluge compared to the bezel diameter means it can appear deceptively smaller on the wrist. I'm about a 6.25 - 6.5 wrist and I don't have a problem with watches in the 44-46 size.
I'm surprised nobody put up the $499 Scream Speedmaster from yesterday.
But you could have, lol.
It's not one I'm personally keen on so I usually won't post up in those cases.
It could be worth mentioning that as with previous SB friday deals, today's deal should persist over the weekend until monday morning, in case anyone wanted to check a similar model out in person before committing the cash.
Didn’t see, which scream speedmaster?
SFJ001P
Cheers
Yeah not keen on that one haha crisis averted
@Jimothy Wongingtons: Never say never. Your taste might change in the (maybe near) future lol.
That happened to me…. :D
@kolorijo: haha i agree… in truth when i first saw the sd1970 i was like..wow so chunky..i could never rock that…
fast forward to today where i will tell anyone who will listen about how insane the sd1970 is.
im literally wearing one right now, green on ss.
thanks @WatchNerd
I saw that one and thought I'd leave it for someone else to post as it's not my style.
i cant think of anyone in our little watch club that could say its their style…
though im sure @rosebank has 1 brand new still in box.
I actually have 2. The panda and brown/black LE
I don't mind the SFJ007 special edition, it just hasn't been discounted enough yet.
I am wearing the land tortoise that just got delivered yesterday from watch depot, even though I am working from home :D :D :D happiness…
Does it look good on you? Please post a wrist shot?
Yes it perfectly fits my wrist. The King Turtle might be a tad too big for me.

I swear it looks better in real life than in those pictures :D
Looks just the right size, King Turtle may be too big.
I passed the earlier deal waiting for a king, now that it is here but wanting a land turtle again.
@browser: Thank you. I think so too.
Maybe give it another day, sometimes a better deal come the next day from another vendor.
That's the case with my land turtle, I got it from Watch Depot for $259 last week, wasn't even planning to get one, but at that price I just have to get it.
I forgo my pursue for boderry sea turtle https://www.boderry.com/en-au/collections/ocean-seaturtle?sr… and settled with the land turtle instead.
@browser: I think you should get this :D

Seiko Prospex SRPG19J-8 Automatic $398, $378 with sign up bonus
Niiiiice!
As for the Sea Turtle, I just had word from Boderry yesterday that it's shipped. (Finally! Only a month after I'd purchased…)
@Chazzozz: Woohoo…. It won't be long until you get it. Wouldn't mind a review and some pictures if you have the time :D
@kolorijo: Sure thing. I'm getting the Boderry Landmaster in the same shipment (I hope) so I'll post both.
i thought i saw a post the other day on aawf about WD had oversold the land tortorise and were offering a substitute on the rose gold one..actually looked pretty nice
I had a look just now and it is nice with a retro vibe. Wouldn't mind to have one lol.
Same casing as sd1970?
Turtles look much better on wrist compared to the listing photos, imo
Agree, it looks better in real life definitely
Hi, what's the normal price?
rrp 950 according to google
600-650 looks to be the more 'normal price' though
These are great watches but the price seems a bit expensive for a rubber strap version. I bought the Australian limited edition with the pelican case and 2 straps cheaper than this.
Should have share it with us here… sad~
It was a long time ago. I think it was posted on here.
Another cheaper option (different model), if anyone interested:

I love this colourway ! If I didn’t have 2 turtles already I would have definitely grabbed this.
I got this for $250, and finally modded it. Picture was taken inside a hospital with very bright lighting so the dial looks lighter

Clean AF minus the cyclops
Too big for my dainty wrists :(
