Vintage Style Seiko – SNKN37K

snkn37k_2

Seiko released two vintage style models using the 7S26C last year (links at the end of this post). This year, they released a few more variants based on the two models. These variants come with different dial designs and straps. There are also some minor differences which I shall highlight in this post.

Dial:
– Arabic numerals
– minute chapter ring appears flat, making it look like a layered dial
– solid hands compared to skeleton ones one the previous model

Previous model:

Side profile:
– Drilled lugs (not found on previous model)
– crystal is slightly curved

snkn37k_4

Previous model:
snkn37k_4

Notice that the minute chapter ring on the previous model is not flat.

The rest are pretty much the same except the strap. Here are the pictures.

  1. Was trying this out at the store a few weeks back. It looked good on the shelf, but it didnt’ quite sit right on my wrist. i think it may have been due to the stiff leather seiko strap. I’m trying to visualize it with a different strap- it may find its way into my drawer if I could only think of a color/material combo that works. Nylon? Stressed thick leather perhaps? hmmmm….
