Yeap I know they're two different animals with considerable price gap but would you think they look similar?

JJ Irani · 13 August 2007, 04:10 AM

No similarity whatsoever, Wandy!!

Letsgodiving · 13 August 2007, 04:13 AM

They're both black and SS.

wandyprawira · 13 August 2007, 04:15 AM

Please forgive me, JJ. I know you'd be the one most pissed with this thread.

It seems I'm the other way around with your path. I just purchased that one today to wear it during a rough day at a fraction of my Sub's price.

Similarities might b there but they no way look similiar

SPACE-DWELLER · 13 August 2007, 04:25 AM

I see what you mean, Wandy

The Seiko sure does lean against the design of the Sub Date.

But the design of the Sub Date has been an icon for MANY other watch companies. Simply because it's designed so well

Couldn't agree more with that! I'm looking for the similar model for a rough day.

USMCsilver · 13 August 2007, 04:23 AM

Forgive me, but I happen to like the looks of the Seiko more.

OH NO YOU DIDN'T!!!!!

I gotta agree that both of them are black and SS but i cannot see any similarities

Gedanken · 13 August 2007, 09:18 PM

Kinda-sorta, but I'd say this SKX031 bears more of a resemblance to the Sub:

Yes it is, Bo. It's about US$130. Free shipping included.

That's more like it, yes. The one I posted is more like a combination of a Sub and Daytona due to its chronograph function.

Gedanken · 13 August 2007, 09:24 PM

Dunno - I had a mate who has one as a beater because he didn't want to go too rough on his SD, but he's had it for years.

Except for being black - not the least bit.
