Readers would know that I recently netted the Seiko Turtle Pepsi and truly liked the piece. It was nice to have the vintage turtle piece, modernised to the current acceptable size and very much wearable without fear of vintage WR gaskets and parts.
While looking around at a watch shop, I chanced upon the Seiko Turtle Coke. The red minute hand really caught my attention and the salesperson informed that they had only received one piece todate. It was retailing at RM2,010 and he was willing to give me a 15% discount due to my repeated purchases. To say that I was not tempted at all would be giving the bulls.
I had a thought about having both pieces and then transplanting the red minute hand into the Turtle Pepsi so that it looked like the PADI version. Hmmm, worth a shot?
My Dad used to be a watchsmith- and I grew up watching him taking watches apart for servicing and repair works, before re-assembling all the tiny parts into fully-working items of marvel again. It's no surprise then that I was intrique into the world of watches since a young age. P/S : This is a watch site from an enthusiast to fellow enthusiasts, so you won't be bothered by adverts here. Just pure watch-reading fun, if you're into this. Enjoy the ride...
