• Closing thoughts:
o On wrist – Excellent Full-Sized fitment and never feels over or undersized
o Model variants – Check site links for options and current availably
o Comparable models – If you want something similar but with a mechanical movement, for not much more you could grab a SBDY131 ‘Mini-Samurai’ currently going for about $407 from Sakura
 On the quartz side, for $40 more @ $385 you could get the BN0260-54L Citizen Promaster which better built and similarly styled for not a lot more, although by comparison its hands could be seen as too short
o Bottom-line – This is a great wearing modern Seiko diver that offers a ton of value, no it isn’t super original BUT it’s just vanilla enough to be unoffensive, while being spec’d just well enough at a low enough price, to be uncontroversial
