Let me share my Seiko Padi Mini Turtle
Pictures don’t do justice to the watch. It looks so nice and very well made in real life. The size is about perfect also.
The strap is very nice, with an almost velvet feeling and the luminous material has a light beige or vainilla tone.
The dial texture is subtle in the real and the watch exudes a high quality feeling overall.
Regards.
René

Diameter is 42mm but...
Due to the lugs shape and size which are short, it wears more like 39-40mm. Thanks for your comment, it is a very nice dial indeed. Best. René
Thanks for looking IWC!
The thing is that pictures seem to amplify the texture of the dial, which in real life is subtle. Best. René
Anybody can buy it
But it will be more special if you have your certification and use it for diving. Best. René
Nice René, I too picked one up several months ago.
Honestly I didn’t know it existed until I happened upon it while traveling. It does as you say wear more like 40mm or below.
Thanks for your input Jay
This watch is a real surprise to me, a nice one. I have always wanted a Seiko Pepsi Diver, and this will do perfectly. Can’t wait to wear it a lot and see how the bezel fades with the passing of the years, and then give it to my son. Best. René
Personally waiting for an upgraded SKX013 . . .
. . . which measures 37 mm. There are several modifiers around that offer different dials, bezels, crystals, and crowns, but what I'm hoping for is a factory-effort SKX013 with a top-drawer movement made in Japan. Art
I like very much modded SKX013s and 007s
In fact I’m thinking about getting a 007 and give this treatment: Credits: seikomods at Instagram. Don’t you think they’re going to discontinue the 013 along with the 007 in favor of the new Seiko 5? Best. René ...
Not a clue as to Seiko's game plan, but . . .
. . . I hope they keep the SKX013 around. Perfect size for my wrist . . .
Congratulations, René!
Looks perfect on your wrist! Perfect for sunnier days ahead. Take care, Alex
Thanks Alex!
It looks like a perfect summer watch. Thanks for your kind comment. Un fuerte abrazo! René
