Orange Monster?

[admin]

Hello All,
I’ve been eyeing the Seiko Orange Monster to fill the much needed spot of a watch for dressier or more formal occasions. I have a Traser P6500 which is pretty solid, but definitely a beater watch and not very professional in appearance when sporting dress clothes. Would the OM fit the billet? Those of you who own one, what are your opinions on the watch? For the price can it be beat?

In advance, thanks.

The Orange Monster is a love it or hate it watch. If you hate it, be careful, it will soon grow on you. I wear my OM for all occasions. It goes great with Nato straps and after market bracelets.

Here’s my Orange Monster on a 22 mm Strapcode Super Engineer II (SEII) bracelet. I hand filed the 22mm SELs to fit the OM 20 mm lugs.

This is the one I used to own. After seeing that super engineer bracelet, I might have to get another one.

Thanks for the replies. Does anybody have the new model? Any wrist shots?

Said watch is now mine and sees a pretty good amount of use… great piece of kit, and I’d recommend everyone have one in their collection.

Thanks again for the watch Cowsmilk !

The orange monster is my favourite in my collection. You will not be disappointed.

The first thing I did with my 007 was ditch the band. I didn’t even size it. How is the band of the Monster?

Does anybody think the Monster is dress watch material?

No, it is not dress watch material.

I think if I had to pick a single watch to represent the opposite of a “dress watch” … I would have to choose the Seiko Orange Monster (and specifically the current “2nd generation” version) … 😀

Fantastic watch, by the way, with probably the best metal bracelet for watches at that price point.

The monster watches never appealed to me from the “looks” department . But the movement in the new version is certainly exciting at that price point….

Monsters are truly nice,accurate and solid,only size troubles me personally,for my self they feel little small..Maybe I have oversize wrists or ego :rofl:

I really like my 007, and I was actually considering a 009, but I want to shake things up a little. The Monster has always appealed to me somehow, I’m just afraid I won’t like it. In any case (no pun intended) my next watch won’t have a black face.
