SEIKO 5 Automatic

Una gran marca con mucha trascendencia, muy inspirado en el SKX sin tener los 200m de resistencia que este tenia (igual el 99.9% de las personas no lo utilizaremos para bucear), de las mejores combinaciones de colores en el Seiko 5 sports. Se siente y se ve mejor de lo que cuesta, Recomendado!

デザインが気に入り注文しました。 SEIKO5はシルバーフェイスの物も持っておりますが、ほぼこのグリーンフェイスの物を使っています。自動巻なので１日5秒ほど狂いますが許容範囲のご愛嬌です。

The colours of the watch are absolutely stunning. I love the combination of green and rose gold, like a subtle flex reminiscent of the Rolex green, but where a more striking gold might be there is instead rose gold. I haven’t owned the watch for long but so far the accuracy is exactly what you’d expect from this sort of watch, and the same as what is said in the item description. The bracelet is sturdy and does the job, and frankly unless someone got out their nerd glasses and inspected it, it might as well be a $100,000 bracelet. It’s an aluminium bracelet that keeps it on your wrist. It does the job to a tee. There can be a little clicking very occasionally which would be my only minor complaint. The lume is great, tough to go wrong here and if anything it’s a cut above the rest of the watches in this category. At the end of the day it’s a $300 and if you look closely it does show, but to be honest $300 would absolutely not be wasted on this watch and if I had $5k to spend I’d buy this and save the rest. It’s a beautiful watch to compliment your outfit and show off your style. You’d have to pour out a lot of money before you found something that’s obviously better than this. 11/10 value for money but at the end of the day a $300 watch is a $300 watch.

Stunning, quiet and smooth at all times. Holds its auto/manual winding well (almost 2 days still held its time while I was away from home and the watch was sitting, and was only off by a dozen seconds). The finish is extremely well detailed, band is brushed smooth and consistently, and I can find no imperfections on the dial using a magnifying glass. The rotating bezel and movement also feel solid and refined when adjusting. A few nit pick derogatories: the lume, which is not expected to be great at this pricepoint. It is serviceable and bright initially (see 2nd picture it does look nice), but also loses its glow very quickly (less than 30 minutes). The offset angled crown is difficult to pull out of its socket, the flared case almost completely obstructs it. Also not a screw down so i wouldn't take this into any water, nit pick again, and it is still easily useable as a daily. Also, the last tiniest complaint, but the seconds hand marker dot is on the opposite end of where it actually points. Not a real problem if you know this prior, but can make it difficult if trying to use as a timer in the dark, as the lume dot points 180 degrees opposite of what the seconds hand is actually at. Sizing: Although the band's lugs appear to be held together with screws, they are not! Use a pin pusher in the direction of the arrows, what appears to be tiny screws are actually the ends of shimmed metal that hold each pin in Value: You can often find this watch below its $299 msrp, at that price it is still worth it new. But if you can find closer to $240 or less, it is an absolute steal. Reliability: it is a seiko with 4R36 mvmt (NH35), enough said. I've used this one for over a year without issues before writing this review. Plan to keep it for decades and pass down one day

Smitten at first glance, but did my due diligence before ordering. Very nice Watch. I paid a touch over $200 for this very nice Sport Watch, new. No, this is not a "Dive Watch" but they still sell the SKX line. This has kept great time, gaining three or four seconds a day. It would be great if this watch only gains a minute or so a month. Update - 5-25-2020 After about a week this watch's accuracy improved to about 2 seconds fast or slow each day. The third week of ownership showed a 3 second gain for the entire week. Folks that is COSC accuracy. Go figure The bezel and index markers are spot on alignment wise. Just the right amount of Gold Tint on the hands and dials, doesn't stand out at first glance. Setting up the day/date was super easy. Noticing the green bezel is a flat matte finish, very thoughtful for glare reduction. The metal bracelet is not great but not nearly as bad as reviewers let on. The micro-adjuster worked well. Dear Seiko Corp : Any watch you make over $200 should have a Sapphire Crystal. Surely this can be accomplished with your buying or manufacturing power. - Update 08-16-2020 Still lovin' the watch. Still keeping great time within a few seconds a week. Still my most worn watch. It's what I wanted, a nice looking, good performing daily wear watch. Still recommended. Update 09-13-2022 Still my most worn watch. Still keeps good time. The "inferior" Hardlex crystal is devoid of blemishes after 2+ years of 3-4 days of wearing each week. Get to wear the Omega Seamaster every now and then ;-)
