    I really laughed because of your title. I recently bought another Seiko, but this time it is different. We all have been there. 😏

    Excellent choice! I've had this very watch for a few years and I absolutely love it. I've worn it with a suit, casual, tshirt and shorts... very versatile, rock solid and dependable.

    Beautiful watch! Seiko’s hold a special place with me since my grandfather has passed his down to me. A Seiko Arnie and a perpetual calendar. I haven’t bought a new Seiko yet, but that Samurai is beautiful!

    I've had 2 Samurai: a regular one like the watch shown here, and the limited edition "Gray Dawn" Samurai. Beautiful watch, that case looks like it's made from sword slashes, the case, looked at from the top down, has corners that are angled like the point of a Katana. The markings on the first 15 minutes of the bezel look like designs seen on some ancient Japanese bucklers. A uniquely Japanese and striking design, it doesn't get nearly the recognition it deserves. I have so many watches, most Seikos, but I keep considering getting one of the newer "King Samurai".
    I didn't like wearing it at first, but, put it on the Seiko silicone strap and it wears awesomely.

  • @rayharrison6400

    Absolutely love it. Case shape is awesome and the shoulder angles are sublime to the smaller wrist. Love the brushed downstrokes, makes a pleasant change. Dial is 😋 delish. Bezel just awesome. With all those angles it should be called the Stealth 😉. Would like to see the minute hand with more character but the set is cool. Bracelet is a thrower though, that’s an incredible oversight and more synonymous with cheap models. Samurai black was on my radar, but have to say, this one is 7.5 outta 10 for me. Cheers dude awesome review as always

    Man, the knurling alone is worth the price of admission by itself! That crown, that bezel edge 😍 It's like, how much more knurled could this be? And the answer is none. None more knurled 😂 You throw in that dial, the aluminium bezel insert and that angular chuncky monkey case and you’ve got a modern Seiko classic!
    Awesome review MWC! Good luck to everyone who contributed to the live and is in with a chance of winning this bad boy!
