- One of the hardest Seiko reissues to get your hands on were released in 1997. They were the Seiko "Rally Divers" and there were 11 of them. This is a really great example of only one of them, but I will also show you the others in the collection. This was a pretty cool release back then, in my opinion, something that you won't see everyday. I hope you enjoy!

SO killer! Love that case shape, and those indices are the epitome of 70’s retro! Bracelet is a great pairing, too!
Thanks, Witt! It’s such a rare piece. The way the UFO case sits on the wrist is pretty cool I must admit
Seiko has some very interesting designs in its catalog, hopefully seiko can bring back some of these models.
The back catalogue they have is pretty vast. I love some of the older stuff they’ve done!
i've seen some of these online but never knew how special they were! your piece is in a fantastic shape too, wow. great video!
Thanks, Min! The originals are all over the place. This reissue series are really hard to tell they are reissued vs original. Keep your eyes open for them now that you know!
Although this watch isn’t one I would own, it’s certainly unique & interesting!! Your video is terrific in showing off its uniqueness!! Well done, sir!!!
Thank you my friend! It is not for everyone, but being able to see something just a little "different" in the watch world is what us every day enthusiasts need! At least imho of course....
Hi, Blake, this video really inspired me....and ultimately cost me some money! I hit ebay here in the UK and managed to snag myself a really nice SBSS009. Received it today. It's a beauty....that orange/gold dial and the sushi indices. Yet another semi-vintage Seiko in the collection. That New Year's watch buying resolution didn't last long. Thanks from one watchholic to another. Cheers!
Ian, I am laughing (with you) and fell out of my chair!! That’s awesome and congratulations my friend 👍👍
such a lovely piece
Thank you! Cheers my friend 👍
wear perfectly on the wrist
It does!! UFO case shape is pretty cool
Just when I was in the mood for something funky!
Great video. I love the funky retro Seiko 5s. BTW I have the srpc13 the blue ufo you're after. It's one that just has that X factor.
It does, Matt! Hang on to that one! Imagine if the inner bezel rotated!! 🤯
And thanks for the kind words
👍

I always thought these razor blade style bracelets were atrocious. But it seems to almost fit this watch.
Definitely fits the watch. Not for me on other cases. Sure is comfortable though!
Alright I need one
Haha yes!!
Looked like a Sinn watch for a split second
Split second! Ha

nice review dude, shame that seiko do so much so well, and then so much so badly...!!
Right? I mean...you have to imagine the design team and how many people work on that aspect.....but some of them are really cool for sure.
