Wondering should i get 1 to try or just stick with stock. Haha
I am going to order a super ouster with the larger clasp with 6 micro adjustment to try....I think should fit?

Found a wjean mesh lying around... Springbars aren't the fat ones but the ends are the larger ones to properly fit the lug holes of diver watches.

I also bought one from K2 today. When I was there (about 7+ pm), there were so many fellow Seiko fans buying the 639K1. IMO, this is the most sellable watch that I have ever encountered. I would like to mount a bracelet onto this watch. Any suggestions where to get one, other than Thong Sia?

TIA for advice. :)

The 2.5mm fat spring bars limit our choices. I am still considering a bracelet too as the stock one is disappointing.

Strapcode sells straight end bracelets that take fat spring bars.

im amazed this is selling so well. its just a monster with shroud. in terms of design, as usual for seiko, the day window spoils the balance. dial would have be done without the numerals. not a fan of the hands too. though the black and silver ones look better. not as colorful. i foresee the less colorful version of this model will have a more lasting appeal.

But strangely the 639 seems to be selling the fastest? I find the 637 a little boring, all silvery and white. The 641 is nice but didn't feel confident that the black coating will be durable so went with the 639.

639 looks sharpest and fresh, while the 637 looks more classic... had a hard time choosing between the two.
unfortunately found a sawtooth after i bought the 637 otherwise i might had gone with 639 myself...
