seems like the same review posted over and over with no mention of what size it really is...even the few WIS who already have one aren't saying any different than the 48mm in the description or just haven't been asked...anyone find anything to the contrary...the comparison pics don't look like it's 48mm?

Nabco wrote: Check this out Oscar....at the bottom of the article says the bezel is 42.5 Yes, I saw the same as Nick...but this is the absolute ONLY place I've seen any dimensional info... This is the info from the link that Nick posted above: Diameter of bezel: 42.5mm Diameter including crown: 46mm Thickness: 13.5mm Lug width: 22mm One thing of note...In the comparison shots I've seen (see below) with the new SKZ323,325,327 and the Seiko Monster, it looks like the dial diameter is larger relative to the thinner bezel, but if you assume that the two watches in the pic below are fairly close to the same camera plane, then the 42.5mm diameter for the bezel diameter is likely very close to reality. Again...not my pics ![]() Looks good on a Zulu too!!! ![]() ![]() Last edited on Sat Dec 4th, 2010 12:36 am by stew77 |

I saw the post at the airport lounge this morning and was intrigued by the profile. In the plane, I kept thinking about it. When I landed in Singapore, I hunted it down and of the 4 ADs I went to, none have heard of it nor seen it yet. I'm on the waiting list, obviously. The watch seems to me like a 42mm and 45mm with crown. The watches88 site erred. It said "Made in Japan" but the model's serial number denotes it is NOT made in Japan. All 7S36 lines with that serial number are made outside Japan nowadays. Like Graham, I like the retro look and the hands plus the red crown ring accent is similar to the Frankenmonster series. In Asia I can shoot this down for about half the CONUS price. Too bad guys ![]() ![]() ![]() If I can get this, I'll fit it with a rubber waffle. The lug width of this is a 22mm. The side-by-side picture with the BM proves it is 22mm because the BM is a lug width of 20mm. I'll be flying out of Singapore tomorrow to another Asian country so I can still hunt this down. ![]() Last edited on Sat Dec 4th, 2010 10:55 am by bigrustypig |

mine will arrive on Tues. and btw watches88 service is super fast and excellent on all levels so far!....they are located in Malaysia and were the 1st selling this model so Jeff I would guess that is your starting point in your search....I have only seen that this model was made for the Asian market and not exactly where it was made...either way when mine arrives I will take measurements to add with the pics...![]()

That's a great watch, sadly, with my 7" wrist, I can't handle anything above the 42mm mark.. but it does look stunning![]()

just landed minutes ago...a quick pic before it gets dark here and more to follow in New Arrivals tomorrow...size wise it is 42.5mm at the bezel and the case is close enough to call it 44mm from the 3-9 position...it has a sweet case that is reminiscent of Seiko past...the case design is very cool especially from the curved side view which looks close to the new 10th anniv.
