Seiko 5 review

Been for a while an avid Seiko fan and have collected a few as they are mostly quite affordable and the watches don't lose value over time, in some cases they could become more valuable as fans snap them up and they become popular for one reason or the other.

Seiko has been in business since 1881 and in the early years they cleaned the floor with all the European watch manufacturers in many exhibitions and accuracy tests taking first prizes. They still produce today a multitude of various watches ranging from about 100EUR to thousands of EUR with the same time accuracy as from the beginning.

Short summer in Italy

Montalto

Having gotten a few days in Montalto I had to go to La Spezia to seatrial a 37' Axopar crosscabin, wonderful boat. Then I rushed off to do the sojourn to Spain and as I arrived back I was called by Burgess to join a yacht in Singapore. After a bit of thinking I accepted as I needed the income so I only had a few days to enjoy, pack my bag and off to Nice again. No rest for the wicked.

The main street of La Union 

Having finished the project with s/y Fanny I had to take a quick tour to Spain to conclude an errand that had been pending for a while with my friend D.
