    Stunning colour combination on this piece. I have no issue with the magnifier but a sapphire crystal would have been nice. Usual Seiko bracelet- OK but should at least have a milled clasp. A great watch on the wrist nonetheless. Nice thorough review.

    I've been tossing up between this watch and the SRPD25 for a few months now, unable to decide and waiting for a good price. Just this weekend I found an online retailer based here in Australia that had them at $389 AUD (just under $300 USD).... an AMAZING price. But I still wasn't sold on that blue bezel. Your video absolutely tipped me over the edge. Straight to the checkout page and I've got one on its way to me. Super happy with my decision. Thanks for helping :D

      @@ash9058 On the wrist right now... I think I'm happy with it. Not sure whether it will be a long-term keeper, but I'm enjoying it for right now. I think at that price it was a good deal. Two of the things I thought might be issues are actually ok: 1. I was unsure about how the colour of the bezel would look, but it's actually more subdued than the promo photos and I like that. 2. Also, the red minute hand I'm not a huge fan of, but I hardly notice it IRL so that's another win 😁

    I have the SRPD25 with the dark blue dial and black bezel. The lumi isn’t that bright, but maybe bc I haven’t worn it out yet and just had it sized. Glad I didn’t do it myself with that paper clip bc it had like 2 pins and a one is tiny and easy to loose. Anyway, is this Pad version suppose to have more lumi from the other 4th. gen monsters or are they supposed to be the same?

    Sorry but Seiko ruined the Monster with the 4th generation. The case is too smoothed out having lost its unique cutouts and shape. It’s like it was made to be less offensive and lost its edge in turn. The old one was only 47mm lug to lug (with straight end links that hid neatly under the case). This new one is 48.5mm and the actual lug to lug is even longer because of the protruding male end links (probably more like 52 mm). And that candy bar cyclops is hideous! So glad I have a 3rd generation SZSC003 with the 6R15 (did a sapphire swap to nuke the cyclops). Gen 1-3 Monsters (especially the shark tooth Gen 2) are a much better, more unique, classic Seiko Monster. I have zero interest in buying this new bastardized Monster.

      Many, especially collector,s prefer originality and history over any copy despite the specs. Same reason people pay $$$$ for a Rolex milsub when steinhart makes a homage with better specs. To each there own as value system are different.
      Also homage wouldn't even exist without Seiko having spent the $$ to design, market, and develop the movement which is a huge cost homages don't incurr.
