The wrist shot. Very happy so far, I was worried about 41mm being too big, but it's perfect.

I agree about the face, I may indeed get rid of the ugly 5 logo and do new hands in the future. Found a local watchmaker who loves to do those kind of projects.

BTW-I'd like to comment that after wearing mine for a little while now I'm really surprised at the comfort. Its actually the heaviest watch I own but due to the raised caseback the hunk of steel isn't sitting right on your wrist.

So far I've been daily wearing it with everything from t-shirts at home to dress up at the club. I'm actually selling my Eco Drive on flea-bay now because I simply don't wear it and don't see myself wearing it any more.

e90076 is an unknown quantity at this point
Just picked up a SKA413 and have to say I love it. Still have my eyes on a Planet Ocean but the 413 should hold me over and will serve as a great backup when I finally pull the trigger. Exceptional quality for the $325 I paid at an authorized dealer.

Hey just found theard. I'm looking for a new watch and Seiko seems like the way to go for me right now.

I'm having a hard time finding a good dealer here which I can trust(China...haha)but will keep on looking. As for now I am still not sure which is the right model for me so maybe some of you could help me out on this one.

As much as I like big watches I'm still not too sure if I should get one. I have a rather small/thin wrist, so I'm not too sure how they look on that. Seikos seem pretty big to me.
