New Seiko of the day: PADI GMT Kinetic

 

I am going to be perfectly honest with you: PADI GMT Kinetic was not on my 'wanted to buy' Seiko list. I have not seen one in person, and was unfamiliar with the calibre. Additionally, the Seiko sales rep made absolutely no effort to introduce this watch to me.

The credit for this surprising discovery goes to the customer who ordered one just before Christmas. And around 10am today (Dec 29) PADI has arrived! 

I just can't believe my eyes - and I am confiscating the watch for myself. (Customer is now going to wait until next delivery, sorry). What a keeper! 

The case size is 48mm at the widest point, but the bezel is only 43mm. And it is BLUE! So is the dial with 3 small red strokes and unmistakeable red skeleton GMT hand. Yes, it is a divers watch but my goodness, it will make a fantastic daily wearer. 

One thing is certain: photos did not do it any justice! This Seiko looks and feels like a $5K Swiss watch. The lobster case with sunburst pattern graining reminds me of the 1970s Omega Mark II. The silicon strap is superbly comfortable and perfect fit for my 20.5cm wrist. 

Price? Only $999. 

PADI GMT comes with 5 years warranty, free delivery AND a chance to win Novak Djokovic Prospex on March 31 draw.

Thumbs down to Seiko sales rep. No excuse mate - how could we've missed this beauty!
Thumbs up to SEIKO for releasing a perfect watch for 'un personnage imposant'.

PLACE YOUR ORDER TODAY for a prompt early January delivery.

AND once again, I personally vouch for your SATISFACTION. If PADI GMT is not exceeding your expectation, return it to me and I'll will not only refund your money IMEDIATELY  but credit your account with $100 towards your next Seiko purchase.
