I bought it after watching this and I wear my Rolex submariner on special occasions but this is my everyday watch and I like the band and clasp better than my Sub 👍🏼
Yes, I would buy this Seiko. I love the SKX but I don't want to mod it myself. If you mod it you're not going to be certified to 200m. That's just the way it is. So this fits the niche perfectly imo.
I'm sure it's been pointed out already but those watches are NOT made in Japan. Movement is made in Malaysia and it's cased in China. I still want one but I wish it was quartz instead of mechanical as to service it will cost more than the watch itself cost.
got the chronograph special edition of this watch today with the pepsi bezel to fill the spot til i can afford a rolex.. and i must say its quite a nice substitute especially for under 1000$
Nice video.This is not a JDM model or it would have made in Japan on the dial.Also JDM and North American models don't have the same lume one is green and the other is blue.
I wear a SRPD73K2 on my 6.25" wrist, does not look too big at all whatsoever. The K1 strap may add some bulk to lug to lug distance so to speak. My k2 rubber strap works quite well for a smaller wrist. I have ordered this exact watch featured in this video. I'll see how I like the K1 strap, might just swap it for a NATO or rubber if I don't like the look on my wrist.
Would you buy this Seiko?
Yessssss its a seiko quality watch.
I'm wearing it
My SKX007 just give the ghost after 13 years of everyday use.This will be my next watch.

this is made in china
It’s not made in Japan... you can tell by the dial. But nevertheless, there isn’t really a difference between JDM and non-JDM ones
There is. Check the day of week, JDM spec has English and Kanji.
Do your research, it is made in Japan buddy.
It’s made in Japan. But because it’s going to a market outside USA it’s not required to say the country of origin on the dial.

If you're not diving 600 feet who cares.
How to find I have purchased a genuine seiko? I bought this last month.
i have one Made in Japan and i love it
Yep, not made in Japan. The logo's a 5 too, not S. Thanks for posting this, the SKX009's little brother.
Thanks for the info!
Still it's a seiko 5 they just changed the logo, check their website
The movement is better on this one.
Is the red and blue color on the bezel painted??
Does it fade out or scratch over time?
Pls let me know.
You're absolutely right about the watch looking a lot better in person, wow it's an absolutely Beautiful watch.
Totally agree!
I like this watch ⌚

You need better camera skills 3/4 of the video is spent with close of the bracket learn how to film !!
Why don't you make a video and post it on youtube.
got the chronograph special edition of this watch today with the pepsi bezel to fill the spot til i can afford a rolex.. and i must say its quite a nice substitute especially for under 1000$
Agreed
The watch is made in Malaysia with parts sourced from China. The only Japanese thing in this watch is the design of the movement.
Its the same thing. Its like apple producing iphones in china because the workers are cheap.
I'm pretty sure the 4r36 movements are all made in japan. But I've researched so much and can't find definitive proof so I could be wrong lol
Nice video.This is not a JDM model or it would have made in Japan on the dial.Also JDM and North American models don't have the same lume one is green and the other is blue.
It is good for 6" wrist?

Less about the box and packaging, more about the watch thanks.
I believe that IS A "5" on the logo.
Good, i like it 😍
Thanks 😆
Hi.. this watch made in Japan.?
I purchased mine 2 days ago, will receive mine on Wednesday, I can't wait to get it. Thank you for the video and keep up the great work.
Awesome! Thank you!
do you think i can wear it on my 61/2 inch wrists?
@@mayank1252 Damn right you can. Does not look too big at all on my 6.25" wrist.
How much price in dollars
300$
It’s not a new S-logo. It’s their Seiko 5 series logo
Its a K1 version. Made in Malaysia.
ro what? this is alrdy considered an expensive watch in reality.
That Watch needs a cyclops. When I buy mine I will have it added
Stellar watch it is!
Parts made in Japan assembled in China.
S logo? i thought its 5 logo 🤔
You havent seen a best in seiko yet
Who cares about packaging. Really. It's about the watch
Its a 5 not an S lol
The logo? If so its designed to be both a 5 and an S for sports
Correction it’s actually both. The S stands for sports, suit, street, sense, and specialist.
Seriously.. The Packaging... WTF..
