Hey r/watchexchange, For sale today is my Seiko Prospex Tortoise SRPG15 — the version with the navy dial, offsetting white chapter ring and blue and gray bezel. Album: https://imgur.com/a/KPLPghh Timestamp: https://i.imgur.com/zutiqQC.jpeg It's basically a field watch with dive watch DNA. Friction compass bezel and applied markers set this apart as a field watch. But it's big selling point is the dynamite turtle-style case. 42mm in diameter, 45mm lug to lug and less than 12mm thick. Screwdown crown and 200M of water resistance. This was recently discontinued so getting harder to find. In excellent condition. No noticeable marks on the case, glass or bezel. Comes with the stock fabric strap scarcely worn, hang tags, warranty card and original box. Asking $250 shipped to CONUS.

	Country of Origin:	Japan

The company was founded in 1881, when Kintarō Hattori opened a watch and jewelry shop called "K. Hattori" (服部時計店 Hattori Tokeiten?) in the Ginza area of Tokyo, Japan. Eleven years later, in 1892, he began to produce clocks under the name Seikosha (精工舎 Seikōsha?), meaning roughly "House of Exquisite Workmanship". According to Seiko's official company history, titled "A Journey In Time: The Remarkable Story of Seiko" (2003), Seiko is a Japanese word meaning "exquisite" or "success" ("exquisite" is usually written 精巧 from Chinese jīngqiǎo, while the meaning "success" is usually written 成功 from Chinese chénggōng).

Seiko is perhaps best known for its wristwatches, all of which were at one time produced entirely in-house. This includes not only major items such as microgears, motors, hands, crystal oscillators, batteries, sensors, LCDs but also minor items such as the oils used in lubricating the watches and the luminous compounds used on the hands and the dials.
