As with most cool Seiko watches, 99.99% only sold in Japan unless we but from one of those famous internet dealers.

I'll be the minority. Some how, the styling doesn't fit into the Star Wars theme (except the maybe R2-D2). Mostly due to using existing Seiko models, and making small cosmetic changes.

These ones from Marc Ecko a few years back got me excited. But for reasons unknown, never came to fruition:

@ww77: I think it is PVD from the pictures. Maybe google didn't know how to translate PVD from japanese so it could be a translation error?

Stormtrooper for me...does anyone know if they will be available in Malaysia?  :o

Thanks for sharing @sshark
