    I'm still hopeful that GS will release a diver at 40mm, as I'm sure that many other people are also waiting to see this 🤞

      @@q3813 No they don't, unless there's something in the ISO specifications that state it. And the SKX013 is a 38mm watch with that ISO specification. So I see no reason why they really would literally "need" to be big.

    I'm a huge fan on this one with the dimensions and grab-and-go quartz 9F movement. Very easy to read and not a tall on the wrist as some of the automatic movements. Great watch.

    One of my favorite GS divers. A true classic which is very hard to find these days.

    Do you prefer it on the bracelet or on a strap? And if you do prefer a strap may I ask which one you like what is the black one you have in the video? Thank you in advance

    • @EverydayWatchGuy
      @EverydayWatchGuy  Рік тому

      My preference is to wear the watch on its bracelet. The strap is a vulcanized rubber band from Strap Mill Canada

    Am a watch person, but I feel if youre gonna go for this look and you can afford it, just grab a Rolex Sub. Otherwise, just may as well be a clone Sub.. Just my opinion ,and btw, its very very nice !

      I bought one of these over a sub for two reasons, 1, always been a seiko fan boy. 2, it is far more likely to be telling the right time. That said owning a sub is a safe place for your money.
