My new watch
This is my new seiko its obviously kinda made to look like the cartier tank and i really like it since at this moment im not in a position to spend the money on a cartier.
I seen this piece at the mall for 185 then found it on amazon for 82
its a really great watch and im really starting to like seiko i just recent bought a seiko chronograph and its great too

I've seen that watch a million times on Amazon. I'm always tempted by it, but honestly, as much as I admire the styling, I don't really have much need for a real dress watch.

i never dress up just currently wearing it daily i had one years ago in the 90s made by someone else. i was expecting this one to look at feel cheap but it really was worth it for a small price. rather small at 26mm but that is also the standard classic cartier tank size. also a plus is the leather band its actually long enough for a bigger wrist
