You want this Monster "Zambia" it will sting you $1799.99 (£1149.99) on ebay right now! Really? Considering the Monsters main charm for me is it's down-to-earth Rough-n-tough gig this is, well, YUCK. Just IMO And $1800 bucks? I could by a Sumo & a Spork for that money! Or is it just me? Am I being to harsh?

I'll give you harsh mate, unquestionably one of the most disgustingly garish, unsightly, nauseating watches I've ever had the displeasure of casting my delicate eyes upon . . . give me the 'Rasta Diver' of the other day anytime . . . now, if you'll excuse me, I need to go and vomit.

All of the monsters are kind of out there aesthetically, this one just a little more so. I kind of like it.
With the limited Thai release of 2112 watches, I can see it commanding a premium and going for $1k or so. $1800 is just too far of a reach, even for a motivated buyer.

Its a monster with a personality disorder. What shocks me is that some designer somewhere thinks it a good idea, and must be on drugs!

Either that or the guys at Seiko have a bet going that they can get anybody to buy anything.

Or is it just me? Am I being to harsh? And you'd still have enough cash left over for a REALLY nice watch! Hideous indeed . . . . what do some people think (OK . . . . maybe they don't)!

As a friend would say, that's uglier than a bucket of galled a##holes.

Dad - ya gotta admit though, if you dove with that watch I'm quite sure the sharks and other nasties would certainly steer clear of you! That, and you could certainly confirm where your wrist was in the deepest and darkest waters!!

Other than the red strap, I actually kinda like it...certainly not for that price though.

Seiko finally managed to make the Monster into the full clown watch it has always aspired to look like
