Photo Report: Recapping The HODINKEE Celebration Of Seiko's New NYC Boutique
A few weeks back, we took you inside the new Madison Avenue Seiko boutique to show just how special its offerings would be. The response has been incredible, and last night, we invited some of our dedicated, Seiko-loving friends to join us in a private HODINKEE celebration of this new mecca of horology in mid-town NYC. 2 OF 46 The packed house was complete with young collectors and old, seasoned and newbies. The range of interests spanned as wide as what Seiko had to offer, with not only countless Seiko 5 and divers on hand, but several hi-beat time-only pieces and many GMT's. 3 OF 46 One of the highlights was certainly the limited edition green dial hi-beat GMT that we featured on HODINKEE here. The crowd was unanimous in its praise for the piece, and some called it the most beautiful GMT they'd ever seen with this particular green dial. 4 OF 46 On hand to demonstrate just what makes Seiko so special was a master craftsman who came in

Trace one of my Speedmaster for this nice 7806 Breitling. Did not really wear the 35th Apollo XI anniversary Speedy and found this Navitimer so attractiveimage.jpeg

When you press or release the emergency button/screw, how do people know to come look for you? What happens exactly?

Electrifying Blue SMP
Just picked a SMP electric blue with the kind help of Omega guru - Fr.John. Really appreciated what Fr.John has done or this stunning Omega will not be on my wrist as I typed. Cheers to you again, Fr. John!Some quick and dirty pics of new acquisition:

Joined the Black Bay Club this morning.
This just arrived. Joins my small collection incl Bond Seamaster, SubND, Exp I (2016) and this beauty. Purchased the Seamaster in early 2000 and it's been on many climbing trips so it's been relegated to beater status. Needed a watch with a bit of color. This one is a beauty. Happy weekend everyone!Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
