    Is not a new “Samurai”, in the Seiko boutique, their website, you can still find the Prospex Samurai. This is a total new watch called Prospex ‘Shog-urai’, Seiko said that is a fusion with a Samurai and a Shogun models. But again, both models are still available in their catalog.

    Seiko doing typical seiko thjng recently, tag heuer continues to impress recently and omega still hanging on to the endless speedmaster models recently... totally agree with all what you say dude, the samurai has lost something and thenprice hike is just ridiculous tbh. That green Aquarcer ❤😍 wow... hopefully TH can keep the momentum going for this year and seiko decide to change the strategy or atleast up the specs on all the "upgraded" models.. 😊

    I think seiko are using the 6L movements in the kings, and others because of the thinness of the movement. It is actually a high quality movement,, originally coming from Credor watches. I have one in my sje073. An unusual Seiko presage.

    Great information and commentary. Seiko definitely pushing up the prices. Sam at @casualwatchreviews just commented on Seiko pricing too. Maybe Seiko will hear all these voices and at least give better value (better movements, sapphire crystals, etc) for higher prices.
    As for the two-tone Omegas - solid NO… too expensive and just not attractive IMO.

    Seiko got rid of the chapter ring in the Shogun-Samurai. One less QC problem. Do you think they can align the bezel and the dial? 😅. It looks somewhat like the Phoibos Leviathan 40mm. Next comes the limited editions and special editions. And a reissue SKX to mark the anniversary. Seiko is laughing all the way to the bank. 💰. Great video!

    The two-toned Speedies are definitely attractive. Not my focus, but I think they’re nice. Price-wise, it’s complicated. There’s definitely a few thousand in gold there, but you also have to factor in all the additional expenses of working with gold. Scrap, and even dust isn’t discarded. Recovery is time consuming and costly. Insurance and loss prevention security costs are a factor. Inflation and soaring gold prices are on the table too, afterall they don’t want to have to raise the price two months after launch. To me, yes it’s not what I’d spend on, but gold pieces or two-tone, always have a premium on them. If you think this is unreasonable, you’re not the market. These watches are for people who don’t look at the pricetag.

    • @AnotherDaveInParadise

    Its not a new samurai. The Samurai is still continuing. Look at this new release, and look at the seiko shogun case. Its almost identical to the shogun. It just has the samurai crown and bezel, but its basically the shogun case. Hence its an upgraded shogun.

    You know a very liitle about horology,6L caliber is excellent movement,infact Swiss soprod adopted 6L and rename it as A10.It’s very thin and that’s why it is in King Seiko 10mm case,it was also used in Credor.
    Fun fact is that 6L can achive easily cosc but Seiko just don’t regulate their watches.

      I get that the two-tone isn’t for everyone and Omega did over price their watch a bit, but beat rate isn’t everything. The watch is METAS certified, so it will be every bit as accurate as high beat movements, and the co-axial escapement design is the most innovative and substantial change to watch movements for over 100 years. The only other mechanical change that can claim that is GS with their spring drive.
