Album with timestamp: [https://imgur.com/a/VfjGspK](https://imgur.com/a/VfjGspK) Up for sale is a Seiko Prospex SPB143/SBDC101 62MAS dive watch. Want to make it clear now that there are a few issues with this watch which is why it is priced the way it is. I will describe the issues later in this comment. This Seiko dive watch is a modern reinterpretation of the very first Seiko dive watch, the 62MAS. The design is simple but very attractive. The case diameter is 40.5mm, thickness is 13.2mm, the crystal is sapphire and the case is treated with Seiko's Diashield which increases hardness and resistance to scratches. The bezel insert is steel and all hands and hour markers are filled with Lumibrite. The dial is a beautiful sunburst gray. Powering the watch is a 6R35 movement with 70 hours of power reserve and a date function. The watch is resistant to 200m of WR. There are 3 main issues with this particular watch: 1. The watch is not keeping good time. It is losing somewhere around a minute per day. I received the watch in this condition so I'm not certain what the issue is. I believe a regulation would fix the issue but I am not adventurous enough to try it myself. I wore it for awhile like this and just fixed the time every few days, it was less of an issue than I expected but I wanted to make this clear. 2. There is a small speck of dust that appears to be stuck to the underside of the crystal. It's a little above the "O" in the SEIKO on the dial. It is visible in most conditions. I highlighted it with a red circle in one picture in the album. 3. There are a few scratches on the bezel. There is a faint one at around the 17 minute marker on the steel bezel. It is faint and usually the light has to hit the bezel in the right way for it to be visible. There are also a few scuffs to the bezel at the very top of the bezel between the 12:00 marker and about the 5 minute marker. I did not notice these until I started taking close ups of the watch for this post but wanted to point it out. I received the watch with these issues last year. I failed to ask the seller about timekeeping in particular and he/she did not make it clear in their post that the watch had issues. But I will not sell a watch without describing any/all issues that I am aware of and I have priced this watch accordingly and at a fair bit less than I paid. Included with the watch is the original inner/outer box, manual, hangtags, gray Uncle Seiko NATO strap seen in the album, Z199 jubilee bracelet from Uncle Seiko, and an OEM Seiko rubber dive strap. ​ This watch is priced at $285 with shipping included and I am open to offers. Only looking to sell and not interested in trades at the moment. Thanks for looking and feel free to ask any questions!
