Seiko 5 Street Fighter edition

Has anyone had a look at the new Street Fighter Seiko 5s?

The Ryu version really catches my eye!

I'm sure these will disappear quickly.

59,994 street fighter editions doesn't sound particularly limited

I've been playing Street Fighter since I was a kid. Now I'm 45 and I play with my own kid. But this special Seiko 5 edition is not for me except perhaps for the Ryu white model, if only it had a non scratched bezel.

Love the uniqueness of the scratched bezel. Kinda what makes it cool in my eyes.

Ken and Ryu were my two favorites when I played the game in my adolescence. Unsurprisingly, those two LEs are the versions I like the most out of the six. The "Ryu" especially sings to me because of the judo gi patterned dial and I did judo in high school. (Fun fact: Hawaii is the only state where judo is a school sport.) I might consider buying one just for the sake of nostalgia but seeing as how they are "limited" to 9,999 for each model I'm in no rush.

+1 for the Ryu one. He was def my favorite in the game. I know ken and him were basically the same character, but I preferred Ryu over Ken. Prob had something to do with kens bouncy blonde hair and blonde bangs

The Ryu looks like a fun watch.

I'd be down to get a Ryu. Wish they release more later. I want a Sagat version.
