Hey everyone, I'm Seth AKA sweffymo. I'm a student at Penn State and I've been bitten by the Seiko bug...

As a college student, I have next to no money, but that hasn't stopped me from spending too much on watches for myself.

Right now I have (in order of when I bought them):

SNKG95 (Currently has hairspring issues that 7S26s sometimes get)

King Seiko 5246-5010 (needs some work but I haven't gotten around to sending it off to get fixed yet which is a shame because I LOVE this thing)

SNKM95 (Red face, blue strap version of the SNK809)

SSA098 (4R37 movement field watch, compass bezel, my current profile picture)

And sometime later this week my new (to me) SARB065 will arrive.

Aside from watches I also like to buy/shoot guns, and to build computers. I also play StarCraft II and watch professional StarCraft II matches. So basically I have three of the most expensive and addictive hobbies possible.

Anyway, I hope to see everyone around and I hope that even with my limited knowledge I can be of some help to people!

~Seth

Thanks, guys! :haha:

I think that I'll like it here. Hopefully I'll have time to start posting regularly!

Oh, and as an aside as far as my "grails" go, I would have to say that I absolutely love the King Seiko 5246-6000 and the Grand Seiko SBGH035. I was lucky to get my King Seiko for under $300, but honestly I love the 5246 movement so much that I will probably buy more in different styles as soon as I have a "real" job.

As far as the SBGH035 goes... I'm not sure if I'll ever be able to get my hands on one of those.

But at least I have that Cocktail Time Cool coming which is similar in style.
