I just dig up my old diving watch, bought new, original owner, great condition
Seiko H558-5009, I got a shock when I saw it was a “vintage” watch. Original shroud.

All of the forum that I looked through, they are only talking about the H558, but on the movie Commando, there were close-up shots of a different watch, would anyone know what watch is that?

I owned one of the original Arnie watches. I returned it to Seiko for service and they “lost” it. Say what you will, it was not lost. There was a letter in the box describing the work I wanted done. They acknowledged receiving the watch but it magically disappeared. They refused to replace it. DO NOT SEND A WATCH TO THEM FOR REPAIR. I got married In that watch. It was sentimental.

I’m fortunate enough town an ’83 model of the Seiko “Arnie” watch. It’s in excellent condition except that it’s missing the plastic bezel. I must say it still looks fairly decent without the bezel
Kind of like the Invicta watch series that has screws sticking out . With a stainless Seiko bracelet it looks as though it’s meant to look this way, i.e. without the black bezel which goes well with the rubber divers bracelet.
If any one is aware of where to procure the bezel, please let me know
As well. if you’re interested in purchasing the watch, send me an Email at: johnz2@sympatico.ca

[…] original Seiko was so identified with Schwarzenegger—he wore one in Commando as well—it became known as the “Arnie.” It’s back as part of the Prospex line with a new set of style numbers: SNJ025-SNJ028, all […]

The day i found out that in 2019, seiko reissue the Arnie’s. I said to my self, oh this this one is a keeper and start to imaging using it as a kicked ass daily beater diver watch.. Hmn… it would be nice..

And then im saying to my self.. why would i spend the money on the new one if i can get my self the truly, good cosmetically and fully working one..

But i just realize the bitter fact that, its more difficult to own a fully working “truly” vintage arnie’s than the his uncle 6105 seiko divers..

Even the NOS one, have an issue with the stucked crown and not working alarm.. pheuh..

Yes.. this one is a keeper if you have one that still have a good looking and fully working one..

the alarm sounds funny tough.. tickling my ear..
