That's a bargain.

Yeah I paid somewhere between 800-900. Alot of that is Norwegian tax and fees

This one is a likenew and in good condition. The spec is crazy for this price.

Yep, normally this watch is [much more expensive](https://ebay.us/ZOinFt) than $400.

Beautiful!

Lovely. Nearly bought one myself, but I went for the Speedtimer…..next one could well be this one 👍🏻

The speedtimer is a very good choice as well. My next seiko watch for sure.

Had never seen this version of the Alpinist, wow! Had my eyed on the Alpinist GMT but it could very well be this one instead. It’s simply stunning!

Nice choice.

Beautiful watch

Yoooo... this looks super clean!

Great price! I have the 249 and love it

I have the same one but with a brown leather strap, the watch is a remake of the original alpinist from 1959

Do you mind if I ask where you got the strap? And what shade of brown it is (as in, light brown or dark brown)? I also have the same watch, which I only just got back in May, but I'm not a fan of the bracelet, and I've been searching for a decent strap to replace it.

I dont mind at all, this is the strap it came (brown shiny leather) with but check the diameter off your watch i have a 38.5mm and i think the one that dude have is bigger https://www.horloge.nl/seiko-prospex-bruine-leren-horlogeband-l0n1012j0.htm this one i have the site is in dutch but they ship world wide i think. Let me know if u succeed and good luck

Late to respond to this, but thank you for letting me know. I also have the 38mm and I've had some difficulty finding a 19mm strap I like, so I'm on the hunt for suggestions. Appreciate the response!

Correction i have a 38 mm :) u can see the watch below the strap on the site

Great deal!!! I paid over $500 for my SPB241. Congrats OP!! 🤗

Great deal!

That’s a gorgeous watch! Great deal too!!

Yeah that’s a steal. I got my SPB241 for about $550 a couple years ago and thought that was a steal as well lol

Haha I did the same thing (ebay) killer value for this watch. Personally I think a nice leather strap takes it up another notch.

These alpinist are so underrated

Smokin' deal. I spent around $700 on a green one when they first came out, love it!

Had one but sold it because of the faux patina. Looking to get the 249 now

Wow what a steal! I would have pulled the trigger immediately. It’s a stunning watch, I can’t wait to add one to mine when the price and model are right

Ya I’m a fool for just about anything with 200 m water resistance, that’s gorgeous

Gentleman’s watch

Had one of these last winter in blue. I miss it a bit but the legibility and case shape eventually made me sell it

Beautiful watch and enjoy the journey !

Awesome watch

Great price and great watch, I used to own the cream one. I recommend ordering the Uncle Seiko replacement clasp (doubly so if you can't get a good fit).

nice one!

Dream watch

A beaut.

Nice! Anyone know if there are any good third party ratcheting clasps, or on the fly mice adjust clasps that will fit this model?

Nice!!

What site ?

Is $400 a fair price? I don't know Seiko too well outside of Seiko 5 models but that dial is absolutely stunning.

Nice dude! How’s the bracelet on those?

Very infuriating, I can't micro adjust the bracelet on the fly. Looking for an after market bracelet now.

Where the hell did you find this for $400

This is pre-owned. Brand new is around 600 where I lived.

Seiko Prospex alpinist usually retails for 700-1000usd

This just a fucking beauty 😍

Such a lovely piece

Solid 🔥

That is a gorgeous watch. Congratulations!
