round indices on your dive watches? Or rectangular? The answer, of course, is "Yes!" Please excuse the crappy photography.

Early in my watch collecting i did not buy into the 007 cuz the round indices bothered me and i bought a 173 (for USA market). But now most of the Seiko watches in the collection have round ones hahaa!

I also say yes, haha! I love the look of divers, and keep getting drawn back to the Seiko dive family, both round and rectangular

I really like both shapes, but it all depends on how they finish them (lume, framing, etc).

Sweet collection and nice tag line to grab us into the thread. I prefer round hour markers with square second hand tip and bezel markers

Round. Circles within circles within circles.

I couldn't decide if I liked the SKX173 or the SKX007....so I bought them both. Problem solved.

I too say "yes"! I think both the round and rectangular markers look equally good, most of the time.

I prefer raised, usually metal, indices to printed dials, shape is less important so long as it looks 'right'. The 6309-7040 dial has always been a mystery to me, I kinda like it but I've never really got it.

And another not so great photo, this time the mods. I really should have put the Mud Monster and the PMMM with these.
