bro, the watch we talking about now at the moment not expensive, less than 200. your emporio amani watch should be more expensive than these seikos.

I bought it at airport at a discounted rate. I kinda forget how much it was.
But seiko mods are nice

the monster is a chunk of funk, and the sportura is like a gentleman's sportswatch......quite different leh.

anywhere u can try both and compare?

Modern fff dial only Dagaz. For vintage both of them have. I checked forums that yobokies using c3 luminous thus not as bright as Dagaz one
Using c1

Correct me if I'm wrong but C3 is the stronger than C1 right?

If let's say its a direct trade of using Sportura for monster? Worth it?

Not sure abt the sportura but it seems to come with chrono? How much do u value that since the monster does not come with chrono....?

The monster is a big and heavy watch. But very eye catching. The sportura seems to be able to blend with dressy shirts but I'm not too sure about the monster.

Sorry, not very clear with the respective pricings so cannot comment on value.

Chrono more worth? I'm leaning towards the monster. Sportura feels too casual for dressy dinner but yet not sporty enough for sports usage. Pricing wise Sportura has higher market value.

to me the chrono function is just aesthetics.
Yup agree on the "neither here nor there" feel.

Get the monster and then buy a bambino
