With a few apt tweaks, Seiko has finally come up with the definitive Monster.The previous generation's anime-like shark-tooth indices are replaced by more serious, trapezoidal markers, topped by a particularly strong 12 o'clock shield. Gone is the day-date window, to make way for a cleaner, Rolex-esque, magnified date-only indicator. Save for couple more details, everything else in the visual department seems to've been left well enough alone.But, perhaps the biggest revision is the heart transplant: The 4R36 exits to make way for a 6R15, which even though not much different functionally, adds a good dose of cachet at the expense of a higher premium.Introductory variants come in traditional Monster livery of black/silver SBDC025 and orange/silver SBDC023.Slated for a Japan release this coming Friday, November 14, at a stratospheric MSRP of ¥64,800 (tax included) it should be available at a more palatable, but still pricey, ¥45,360 after the customary-in-Japan 30% retail discount.
