The SKX031 returns and this time a "J" variant

I once had the SKX031K on folded oyster bracelet but sold her after a while as I could not accept the bi-directional bezel and without the lume at 12 o'clock.

As I streamline my collection towards Seiko divers, this classic "Submariner" homage cannot be missed. When I chanced upon the rare "J" version, I pulled the trigger without hesitation.

The SKX031J came on a flat vent Seiko rubber strap and this time, I left her on as it is. In fact, this type of strap is more comfortable than the vented rubber strap found on most SKX 200m Divers.
