Seiko ‘Desert Kit’ Midfield Sports [SRPJ83K1]

I bought this on eBay for £107 this week and I think it's really neat.

I'd previously sold my black 39mm Seiko 5 Sport but I missed having a basic Seiko field watch. Because this one was so cheap, I thought I'd take a bit of a leap of faith on something a bit less conventional.

I really like the textured dial, the splash of blue on the Saturday date and the red on the second hand. At 36mm it's smaller than I usually wear, but the NATO strap makes up for some of this. It's really comfortable and I think will make a fun summer watch.

if you're on the fence about trying a new style or something less conventional, try it second hand.
