What a coincidence! I bought this watch recently and put it on an Islander jubilee style bracelet. This is the new 39mm version of the speedtimer. It's a great watch in that price range

I have this exact watch but with the oyster bracelet from LIW. If anyone picks this up, spend the extra $60 and get the aftermarket bracelet. It's definitely worth it.

Ah. The tentagraph is actually near the top of my current wish list. I hadn't seen it in the Tokyo Lion design.

She's back from the Seiko Repair Center- new crystal, face, hands, crown, and movement fixed. They even polished the bezel. Looks and runs like brand new after some water ingress. After and before picks. Took a while to get the correct Malaysian market face which has rectangles instead of dots at the hour markers.



Is that a 399?

Not sure what a 399 is but it's an SKX007K1, TS26-0028.

I'm not familiar with that modder in particular, but there are a ton of people making high quality mods.

A member of my Rotary club (older retired guy) was sporting his gold Presidential Day-Date at lunch.

Here I am wearing my silver faced SS Datejust Jubilee and boy did I feel low class.

It's like I tell all my employees who see my nice watches, and say how much they'd like to own one.

If they work really hard, and really long, and keep their nose the grindstone, maybe I'll be able to buy even more next year.

Cool I didn't know that existed. I thought the skx399 was the only skx with square indices and looked forever for one that wasn't a franken and/or beat to hell. I'll have to keep an eye out for one like yours

No, you're right. The SKX007 and 009 both have circle/oblong indices. Since he got a dial replacement, it looks like they put a new one in with square indices.

Edit: Scratch that. Upon some Googling it does appear that there was a rarer SKX007 with a special Malaysian dial and rectangular indices. That's pretty neat. Most searches show the rectangular indices on an SKX173, but I eventually found it.
