So I wanted a beater divers watch. The first place to look was at the iconic Seiko Divers. So I bought one for my for my everyday activities. Basically not to risk any damage to my other watches. Of course all relative. Endless money you may use your AP Royal Oak Divers, Panerai Sub or Rolex Sea Dweller for swimming and sports. Thats not me . Of course one mans beater is another mans luxury timepiece. Everything is relative.
The SKX007 is seemed like the perfect choice.
My watch is from
www.creationwatches.com
I bough a rubber strap from:
www.uncleseiko.com
Spring Bar tool from :
www.ottofrei.com/Bergeon-6111...
Wouldn't mind getting a Ralf Tech
www.ralftech.com/en/product-c...
Check them out, not cheap but pretty nice!

I used to be like this. I had a Rolex Sub, Omega Speedmaster Pro and wore them rarely. I wore other “beaters” regularly. Had a Breitling Chronomat Evolution also.. love all these watches but then I asked myself, why did I buy them? To have expensive ornaments? Why buy a Rolex diver watch if you are never going to use it for what it is intended for? It’s a crapshoot imo. I sold my expensive watches recently and got a few nice timepieces (all under 1K) and I couldn’t be happier. Love the Seiko brand. They have a great rep and I still think that they’re underrated. The “Samurai” line is really sleek and elegant. Reminds me of the Omega Planet Ocean.

Time to do a recap on this one. I got this watch maybe 3 almost 4 years ago now. Now that I've checked again: new old stock are showing up for $750 now, even scuffed used ones pulling $300+ on ebay. The ship might have sailed on this watch as an affordable collectable.

Last around this time you posted this video (I didn’t see this video ever show up as I searched until now) but I am glad I did. So I bought an expensive watch as I turned 25 years old and finished a desired degree. I figured I spend a pretty penny on myself. Was desiring to buy my pops one (but he passed a few weeks ago). Point I’m making is- Seiko 007s are beaters, great tools, and should be passed down to good family and friends. I’m glad I make the purchase

I owned the J version a long time ago, and really studied the differences from the K version at the time. Many don't know that the J version has a sharper, more crisp finish no the lugs and overall looks a lot better built. The lumes were applied better too, if I remember correctly. Now I own the SKX013 and love it. Interestingly, it has the sharp and crisp lugs like the J version. Definitely a lifetime keeper!

I just bought both the Skx007J and Skx009J for $350 each, here in Oct 2021. Awesome watches, couldn’t be happier to be a proud classic Seiko owner! Both came with the jingly Jubilee bracelets, but I have to say the jubilee is quite comfortable and I love the look of these SKXs on a stainless steel bracelet. I might have to upgrade to an Uncle Seiko beads of rice or z199. The rubber straps just don’t do it for me. Great video!

I bought a 009 to protect my nice watch and after a month I realised I had completely stopped wearing my nice watch. I have the jubilee bracelet which feels cheap but is comfortable, and I also have a Strapcode Super Engineer II which can be hard to find but worth getting. Even though it keeps terrible time, has no hacking and can't be hand wound I still love it.

Oh, and the Lume is pretty amazing as well. I was thinking of buying a perlon strap from Crown and calibre www.crownandbuckle.com/straps-by-type/braided-nylon-straps.html or maybe another rubber strap from Crafter Blue www.crafterblue.com.

@@MichaelBath There is that old saying - the grass is always pepsi coloured on the other side of the fence. I've never tried a perlon strap but I really like the Crafter Blue and the President on Mr Uncle but I counted a dozen NATO straps at home today so maybe I should cycle through those for a while. And the Lume is too good, even walking inside on a sunny day it glows.

There’s on on eBay in my price range used and it’s SKX013K2 and it smaller and 38mm. So I’m being careful buying bc I don’t want to buy one and later find out later I should’ve got the other model.

Great watch! The ' J ' version is most likely not made in Japan and it's made for the middle eastern market as the date wheel has Arabic writing.

I’d argue that the Seiko SRP777 is much better than the skx007. It’s larger and better proportioned, has a better movement, is also iso rated, has a similar, classic design and aesthetic, is equally as rugged, durable, and dependable, and has a design with more history and relevance to Seiko than the 007.

SKX007 is iconic but it's not the best value beater watch from Seiko right now in my opinion. I would instead suggest the new Prospex turtles as the best true value diver from Seiko. I personally think it has a better and tougher build than the SKX, with an upgraded movement that has hacking and hand-winding. The turtles are equally as iconic as the SKX, and most importantly, it is not overpriced, which I feel the SKX is right now because it has been discontinued. Maybe you can get a turtle and make a video comparing both? Looking forward to more Seiko vids.

Beater? Seiko is a fine time piece. My oldest brother bought his in Viet Nam. A Seiko can last a lifetime, thick to thin & go to war. I think the only reason to call a Seiko diver a beater is because not many watches can take the abuse & come out the other side still ticking away, IMHO

Iv'e never seen an authentic 007J from the factory with a NATO strap. It's always on Seiko's notoriously stiff "rubber" strap. I think you got duped.

@@russelledwards6026 I have bought several watches form creation watches (2 seikos) one 007J one kx5 79. What I "guess" happed is Michael ordered on a NATO strap, watch creations would happily remove the original keep it and deliver on an aftermarket NATO. I think Michael make a mistake ordering the 007 and ending up without an original Seiko strap. I have changed my original strap to an Uncle Seiko too because its better, but, I'm happy to have the original rubber strap with the Seiko stamps on the buckle and Seiko tsunami stamped into the rubber.

How do you know if you’re a watch snob? You have to constantly say you bought it as you needed a beater. It may well be a beater but more kudos to you if you made no mention of it. You don’t have to follow the crowd.

In all honesty I wouldn’t call mine a beater. I have two Rolex, a Planet Ocean and a couple of other £300-£500 watches. The Seiko SKX is a classic and with a little work can become a rather refined looking watch. As I was saying, I don’t call it a beater. I call it a watch you can wear in an African or Central American country whilst you are working to destabilise it.

Yeah, a bit hard on the Seiko. It's a great watch. So much so i just bought another one.

beater is a derogatory word sometimes, especially with skx! seikos dive lineage is unparalleled. you’re only going to see these watches go out in price since discontinuation. ‘it’s not a rolex’ no its not lol and why have you bought this to wear instead of rolex watches are meant to be worn man and you say in this video ‘you arent going to wear it for diving’ ? why? hahaha ? its not really a beater anyway, the in house movement, iconic design, ISO dive rating each individually tested, name another ‘beater’ that does this it’s solid and the build and polish quality is insane for this price. this watch has never come on a nato ever so thats confusing. Its the most modded watch about and a huge community. enjoy your watch, you’ll like it as much and if not more than your rolex in no time. for someone who has rolex’s and tudors you sound like you don’t know much about watches, educate yourself bro.
