The 200m water resistant stainless steel case measure 44.3mm case without the crown, but has a lug to lug length of only 47mm, and a height of about 13mm, with a lug width of 22mm. The short lugs to lugs length means this watch wraps around the wrist on all(small or big) wrist sizes like a glove making it extremely comfortable. The bezel is green aluminum and has large printed markings on it. It rotates buttery smooth into 120 positions has little to no free play in a clockwise direction. Sitting atop of the bezel is Seiko’s Hardlex.
The highlight of the Seiko Prospex Turtle 200M Automatic Hulk Green Ref. SBDY039 has got to be the dial. The most prominent being the sunburst Hulk’s green tone dial is so quirky and attractive. It manage to dance and play with different lightings when it hits the surface. The indices are largely the same, as are the classic Seiko hour and minutes hands. The impeccable hour markers and hands are both generously coated with Seiko's LumiBrite allowing it to glow brightly in the dark for hours. The second hand is done I bright yellow color to aid legibility. Further, Seiko has also done the 12, 3, 6 and 9 markers on the minute rehaut in the same yellow as the second hand to keep things size up a bit.
