I'm super excited to get hands on with all new models from the Seiko Prospex 1965 Heritage Diver’s Watch collection. The SPB451, SPB453 & SPB455 divewatch. With all the new updates, did the SPB143 just get better ? Is this still the best looking diver on the market and the best affordable alternative to the Rolex submariner in terms of looks ? What about that new date position on the dial?
In this video we are taking a closer look at all dial colours & we are doing some side by side comparison shots with my Seiko SPB143.
Hope you like this video, if you do, don't forget to like & subscribe. Thanks for watching.

I agree with you! The blue one is my favorite. Can’t wait to see them in person. I think that matching the date wheel color to the dial plays a big part in making the date placement work. I don’t really mind the date at 4:30 in these new releases but if the date wheels were all white it would bug me for sure haha

Beautiful watch. I like the improvements here. The only thing I don't care for is the movement. Seiko has an amazing 6L and 8L movements. I have owned an 8L, the monoblock marine master, and it was a gem, one of my favorite watches I took everywhere with me and kept excellent time. Previously, I had a 6R15 and was much less impressed with the performance there--back then that was for 800 dollars, the so-called Pepsi bezel on the mm200 back in 2018. I'm reluctant to try a 6R again, this time at 1300.

I do own a SPB143, totally agree it's a great watch I just spent the last two weeks with it on my wrist as my one and only while roadtriping, it's my holiday or under the radar watch. I bought it for times I don't want to wear a luxury item, but guess what sometimes I do pick it up because I do enjoy wearing it not because I have to. My only advice is to wear it on a rubber cause Seiko Natos are good looking but too thick and to me the bracelet is not very confortable. The new dimensions seem to be a good improvement and I do like the new position for the date.

Fantastic review. As an owner of the SPB143, this new iteration is exactly what I wanted. I have two gripes with my SPB143. First, there's the long clasp and the wonky and fairly useless dive extension. I wish they got rid of it completely, but at least the clasp is shorter. Also, the fact that the case is ever so slightly smaller is welcome. Finally, I don't like the grey sunburst dial on the SPB143. I know it looks great in some shots, but in direct sunlight seems washed out and the legibility isn't great. Having owned black and blue dial divers, I can tell you that for me black is the way to go. I always end up wearing a black dial watch more since it's so versatile and I love the monochrome, understated look. So I will be upgrading to the SPB451 and probably sell my SPB143. I think that one is the perfect daily + travel watch and you are right about the diashield coating. My SPB143 looks absolutely flawless after 3 years of daily wear and I never tried to baby this watch. It's actually the reason why I'll still go with a Seiko instead of other brand even though there are things I don't like about Seiko (QC issues, movement accuracy and of course the price bump).

I wish I had somewhere to try on some of these. I am looking for a good daily watch and considering various things from 1k to 5k. This seems a bit on the smaller side. I don't have a big wrist but eyesight is not great at this point and I guess I just always had big watches (worn a lot my Mako XL before I dropped it accidentally). It does look great and I wonder if I need anything more or not. I will try to keep an eye out and try it on if I see it somewhere.

I think this is an overall improvement but I still prefer the sunray grey dial and brushed bezel of the 143 than the black dial and matte black bezel with the circular 4:30 date that looks to be taken out of the willard. I also don’t like the “3 days”. I think the black would’ve been a nice secondary option to a sunray grey/brushed bezel. Plus my 143 is a companion to my sje093.

I love the design of this watch. It’s a classic. The one thing that I don’t understand is why a 1400 Euro watch still uses a movement that operates at 21,600 beats. There are so many other brands that offer a movement operating at 28,800 beats for a far lower price. I understand that you can increase the power reserve by decreasing the beats per hour but it just doesn’t feel right. Sometimes I feel that these “prospex” watches aren’t really that pro. Other micro brands offer similar value at almost half the cost.

I would get this. But the price hikes keep going. And they still don’t offer a nice on the fly adjustment clasp. At least when they hold prices they should also make better watches with tighter accuracy tolerances (as else it’s still just a 6R as found in watches a fourth of the price years back) and better clasps on their bracelets in my opinion.

that round hole 4:30 date is the cheapest looking solution to a date problem they could have ever thought of, ffs Seiko. I’m glad I have a spb239 and I’m holding onto it for dear life as long as I don’t find a cheap sla043.
