I know it's not that big, but it does glow in the dark!
I've been looking at this Seiko Sports 5 for about a year now and have loved the agressive styling on this contemporary divers timepiece and for what ever
reason I had not picked it up ! Well tonight that changed. I picked it up over at Islandwatch.com and I'm really looking forward to seeing how this one will look around the wrist! I'm a big fan of Seiko's and a bigger fan of Auto. day & date timepieces so when I saw this with a all lume dial I had to finally jump on it! I'm hoping to have it by the end of the week or early next week so hopefully by this time next week I will be able to post some of my own pict. Here's a few specs. and a few stock pict. to give you a idea of how sweet (IMHO) that this timepiece is!
: : Seiko Sports 5 Automatic Watch with Luminous Dial :
The Lumibrite dial is a standout on this watch. Charged by light it glows very bright in the dark. The watch features a compass marked uni-directional bezel with finger grips, offset crown, a knockout stainless steel case and bracelet, silver hour markers, luminous hands, a day and date window at 3:00, and a Seiko caliber 7S36, 23-jewel self-winding movement. Case: Solid stainless steel, 42mm diameter with a screw-in exhibition case back. 13mm thick. Band: Solid link bracelet
with a deployant clasp. Water Resistance: 10 ATM Watch Thanks for looking ! __________________

Thanks Larry, I've never been good at properly cut/pasting the http. #'s for the various sites so I'm glad for the help! And this site has a pretty good selection of other brands like Orient,Android,Dievas,Traser,Junkers amongst others! And there prices are very reasonable to! __________________

Seiko divers are among the best, and certainly so for the dollar spent. I'm sure you're going
to enjoy it!

Hey Adam, I'm hoping your not talking about the same lume shot as Rick?
Because I'm not showing it! But if your asking about the Seiko I
haven't gotten it yet. But when I do I will attempt to post a lume shot! I
do not have quite the same refined pict. taking skills that you do (your
lume shots are always spectacular) but I will try once it arrives!

Congrats !!
I have huge affection for Seiko cause it was the first quality
watch I purchased for myself about 20 years ago.
Look forward to your lume shots when you receive it.

Hey Gregg, you show off ! Actually I'm glad to see this is WOOD approved and now I will anticipate getting it in my geeky little hands that much more! Question though Gregg? How bright is the lume on this timepiece? I think I just got a little W_ _ _ Y, that might just glow in the ....!
