Both very nice pieces @YETI

Like you, I have a Seiko 7002 that I've owned for 16 years and stashed in my safe years ago, except mine is a 7002-700J. Last I remember it was not keeping time and was due for a service. Such a cool watch that deserves some wrist time.

This thread gave me the kick in the ass I needed - will be pulling it out and getting it serviced next week.

I think the Aqua Terra might be under appreciated. I really like that.
It’s been a great sidekick for the last 10 years. Easy to choose especially with work attire - high quality but not attention grabbing. Very capable with 150m water resistance and hides scratches surprisingly well (and mine has a bunch). It’s not the most exciting watch ever, but you still get those moments when the light hits it right where it really comes to life. The teak dial and applied logo also adds nice subtle texture

The newer generation aqua terra’s have much dressier president style bracelets which elevate them quite a bit. Plus they added a micro adjust clasp.

The teak dial hits or slaps or whatever the kids say. For all the things mentioned I think “high quality but not attention grabbing” sums it up.
 
This is one of my favorite watches. This Seamaster Professional Diver 300m, 41mm. I got this used but in mint condition in honor of my son's birth in 2000. The model was produced in the mid-1990s to early 2000s. The serial number of this one indicates it was made in 1999. This came with a polished stainless steel besel. I swapped that out for a black one because I like the look better. I seem to be compelled to mod most everything I own in some way.
