[Seiko] My first Seiko, 2 months old now

Sharing my first Seiko, a 4R35-02D0 model, just overall love how it has a super elegant look, one very big difference is that I had the rubber strap it normally comes with replaced (yes, leather for a diver, I know its controversial), but moved the original rose gold buckle to the leather strap. But overall its such a fantastic looking piece now and I love looking at it during my day to day.

Another interesting thing I found out is that the "Sports" lettering on the dial face is normally red, but it has worn and turned a light brown instead and overall now compliments the overall champagne aesthetic (likely due to UV exposure, probably because it was sitting at the dealer for so long). I love this piece and I just can't stop gushing over how great it looks.
