My latest incoming - a Seiko LM Special 5216-8020 - and my Special trilogy on Seiko Saturday
I have a soft spot for Seiko Specials and have been quite happy recently learning that there are many more than i initially anticipated. So while it all started with the modern Grand Seiko SBGH035 Special Hi-Beat, I subsequently managed to add the King Se...
What a trio you own now my friend. Truly superb. All these different dial patterns are gorgeous (the linen one of your last addition is top!). Big big congrats for this new addition 👍👏
Enjoy and wear them in the best of your health. Best wishes Alkiro
Thanks Alkiro!
As always, these things are addictive and there seems no end to possibilities... Well...
The tapestry dial is very sublime.
Congratulations on the new acquisition and wear it in great health. And I want to see this one soon. You are my Seiko Vlad, or shortened, my SV.
Depending on circumstances...
I may have some more examples of SVness for you soon Getting back to the important bit - when are you coming to Vienna?
International man of mystery...
Do let me know when it works. That child will not be healthy if not properly drunk to
I know I have to come soon.
But the bureaucracy of switching over visas etc is painfully slow.
I know how it goes...
Had several hours of that just yesterday. Keeping my fingers crossed that it's sorted soon!
Thanks for your kind words, HS111!
Those linen dials are certainly appealing Likewise, a great weekend to you!
It is a good situation indeed :)
Will need to order a new strap for the LM and then I am likely to be happy on this front Have a great weekend, Massi!
Ok, you have 3 "Special" Seiko watches ...
GS, KS, LM, don't you wish they make a KM Special 😁 Congratulations on the trio....what does LM stand for? Rgds Raymond
Now that would truly be Special ;)
LM stands for LordMatic. I guess the level below King and Grand
There's that, too :)
Although IIRC LordMarvel used a 36.000vph movement - 5740, right?
A beauty indeed. So much to discover in these vintage Seikos.
(I think we shared comments on IG re the same picture, of course our Pursit and IG handles are both different so still hard to know who is who!)
Sadly mine was not available on IG...
The vintage Seiko world is a fascinating one indeed. And still relatively approachable, which I guess is a feature, too 👍🏻
Thanks Benlee338!
I do try, even if my skills are far from great 😉 Glad you like them!
