I collect watches. I used to be enamored with vintage Seikos, but in the last years I have been slowing turning over my collection. Now I concentrate on newer Seikos; they are built so well and keep such good time. They are a pleasure to own. I am eagerly anticipating the arrival of my most recent acquisition: the Seiko SKA 293, aka "the Boss". It earned the moniker because when it came out in 2005, it was of the biggest Seikos at 44mm wide and 14mm thick, and a sharp stylistic departure from traditional Seiko Divers. With its kinetic movement charging its battery from the motion of the wearer, it offers the accuracy of a quartz with the ease of an automatic.
Can't wait for it to show up in the mailbox!
