It's a bit banged up but I think the patina gives it character. At some point I really need to swap that aftermarket rubber strap out for a NATO strap or a nice steel bracelet though

Nice! I love Seiko 5’s. They’re both great for starting a collection and also for expanding on a currently existing one. They’re my go-to recommendation for someone wanting to get into mechanical watches.

looks great! For how long does it hold its charge?

The movement is freshly serviced, so it holds for at least a day and a half of sitting still before it winds down
