Seiko is where all the fun is at. Somehow they manage to deliver at every level without ever tipping into pretentiousness or hype. Even at the top end there's an honesty and humility to what they do and I find it very comforting in an industry that's so full of snobbery, smoke, and mirrors.

@dspserpico Год назад

Seiko isn’t following a trend, it’s returning to form. Seiko has essentially revived the SKX013, but in Seiko 5 “diver style” form.

@mikerollason3269 5 месяцев назад

Yeah i came here to see whether the 013 was still more valuable considering its an actual Diver. The prices on those have just gone up and up. These new ones dont have the same appeal.

@frankmiller95 5 месяцев назад

Any good quality watch that isn't the size of a large dinner plate is a welcome addition. Many, if not most newer watches, until very recently were ridiculously big.

@ArcticHunter1000 Год назад

Just got the Orange Dial the other day, absolutely in love tbh. All time favorite watch though, the black dial Milgauss with the Green Crystal edges

@Lawrence64 Год назад

What a great video. Goid to see someone brave enough to admit change of heart. What's not to love about these? There is a lot of fun within 300 ballpark category. Cheers.

@bruhreallybruh 10 месяцев назад

This watch is perfect for the everyday man. It's not big and uncomfortable like a true diver. Crown is at a comfortable postion. No screwdown crown to strip. It's water resistant enough to wash your hands, shower, and wear in all weather. The winding and hacking is handy. The day and date is useful, and the rotating bezel can be used as a compass, stopwatch, countdown timer, reminder, a second timezone, and to protect the crystal.

@paulaye5971 Год назад

Looking for my first actual watch, and this absolute banger of a video sold me on this watch. cant wait!!!!

@ChisholmHunterOfficial Год назад

Glad you liked it! We actually have them in stock at CH!!

@halidagil8770 Год назад

I have the field-style seiko 5 sports bought a year ago. In the purchasing process, I considered a Hamilton khaki field but in the end I chose the seiko. Specs wise, yes the Hamilton is superior (sapphire crystal, 80 hour power reserve) but it’s also twice the price. And living in Southeast Asia where the currency is quite volatile and lower average income, price is the biggest factor for me. Seiko managed to offer good quality watches using in-house movements. It also has a huge mod community so I can change the crystal to sapphire at a later time.

@Anirossa 9 месяцев назад

Around the same time I did the same, spent a few months considering every little aspect, ended up with srpg, the sand colored one, the hardlex got a mark pretty fast on it, so my ocd had me get a sapphire swapped onto it

@bruhreallybruh 10 месяцев назад

The orange one has orange markers on the bezel. I think that is the coolest part out of all the rest. Also, it has a sunburnt dial. Like it goes pefectly together.

@arundhir2662 Месяц назад

Orange is the best of the group by far. Amazing watch.

@AcmeRocket Год назад

Seiko did this same teal dial gold hands 40 years ago. 7548. And the orange too.

@RudyVisuals 3 месяца назад

Awesome review! Was undecided on this but I think you've convinced me to get the orange model! These are as low as £220 so at that price it's an even better deal now.

@maggyh199 11 месяцев назад

Great review as always Harrison! I've been looking for a daily beater and was pretty set on the PRX, but now I'm not sure whether I don't actually prefer the teal Seiko..

@daidojiuji9276 Год назад

These releases convinced me to get a near mint SKX013 before the price jumps similar to the SKX007. I don't mind the older movement in the SKX013, but I cannot unsee the missing lume pipe and screwdown crown in the new ones. I wear mine on an Uncle Seiko Beads of Rice bracelet and the SKX013 shines. But I don't mind getting the Snoopy version.

@o.ozanbilen7113 9 месяцев назад

thank you for the video. I ve been researching for those, I really have benefited from it and the comments below. And bought the orange. Wonderful luminacent, (since its my first luminant watch I dont know how long its supposed to last but you can barely see them at down) clear lookin glass from every angle and all lighting scenerio. the allingment of the indicies and the bezel is very very little off but as my research tells me its a very hard thing to produce at these price range.. I guess its brilliant :)

@Shadowmoon71 Год назад

Good video homie, wasn't a sekio fan but now I'm going to have to try one out.

@stevens1041 Год назад

Got my start collecting with a Seiko 5. For the price, they are a great entry level to the hobby or to Seiko in general. These look cool.

@ChisholmHunterOfficial Год назад

Yeah I agree, I was definitely wrong before!!

@oshoc01 Год назад

Didn't know there was a 38 version. I just bought the Dresskx and there were some 5 sports on display and they looked too big for my small wrist. So this is good!

@turk914 9 месяцев назад

I picked up the teal a few weeks ago and it's become pretty much my daily wear, as long as I have some blue or green to match in my outfit. Love the bright color and very comfortable on my medium size wrist. My only issue with this is the 100 m. water resistance. I just don't feel comfortable swimming with less than 200 m. For this price range, I wouldn't be adverse to swimming with this, if it had better WR. So, I'll have to pack a dive watch when on vacation. But overall, I am very pleased with my purchase.

@Anirossa 9 месяцев назад

For me it all comes down to it being screw down or not when consider if take it into water

@robertwhitcomb6105 4 месяца назад

@victor2tube Год назад

I don't know which seiko you are considering, but with prospex sharp edge gmt you cannot go wrong 😉

@mikesheehan5946 Год назад

The lume is probably not superluminova. Gots to be seiko's lumibrite. Superb lume. And the blue Saturday & red Sunday has been used for ages. Thought it was even standard on the 7s26. And I said it on the pervious video after you said they'd jumped on the smaller watch bandwagon - they've always done many smaller versions of their watches! They own the wagon. I'm starting to think you know all these things but getting them wrong (on purpose) attracts a lot of comments!

I don’t have tic Tok, I just subscribed, and my favourite has to be F.P. Journe Platinum Chronometre Souverain !

@exsleepyink 5 месяцев назад

I haven’t measured it, but I’m pretty sure Jomashop sent me a 38mm with tags from the bigger size. It’s a lot smaller than my other divers. Any QC issues and quirks this watch might have aside, it’s very nice looking for the price and I haven’t lost a second in days! Considering my Sarb017 loses around 15 every 24 hours, that’s amazing for the price

@TheGrenadier97 Год назад

Smaller cases are always a thing to praise, but i'm not convinced this is a $300 watch in terms of specifications.

@JamesAlexander14 Год назад

I have a vintage Seiko 5 which is 35 mm diameter and no bezel and is much older than you Harrison. I really don’t like the fives with a bezel, but I do like the 40 mm sized ones. BTW, Hardlex crystal is not weaker than Sapphire, it is in fact stronger. The only benefit of Sapphire crystals is that they do not scratch. Hardlex crystal is similar to acrylic and you never see Sapphire used in public aquariums. Sapphire can be smashed to pieces quite easily

@arlonahiron7285 5 месяцев назад

I do really believe that hardlex can survive more pressure than a saphire can. I do agree with your point sir.

And also to add a variety on my collection since i own 2 seiko 5s automatic and a casio F-91W. But hey if i win your give away i will not complain that Tissot prx is my 1 month salary.. 😅

@samppi8755 Год назад

Hahaha that's literally what I did. I saw the orange in the window and that's why I stopped to have a look at the watches. Then I saw the black and thought to myself "yeah actually that's nicer". I tried the orange anyway just to be sure but bought the black as expected. PS: I'm a woman with fairly skinny wrists so I was super happy they gave us a "chunky" watch. The 38mm is perfect.

The 4R movement is also SO much better than the 6R family. I've had 3 fail but never a 4R. That longer power reserve has killed it. For that reason, many of the orospex divers are a no go for me. King turtle gives you everything you need.

@giusepperocchi2979 Год назад

Not to mention Citizen, that gives you in house movement and a proper ISO certified diver for less.

@TheGrenadier97 Год назад

Paid $180 for my Kamasu II brand-new last year; fully in-house and superior than any 5KX, which generally runs around $220. Even if these Seikos were around a proper $160 Orient could still compete with the traditional Mako II and Ray II. I've heard these new SmallKX are going for over $300, which is almost Seiko Turtle' money. I'm not saying that the Seiko 5KX are bad watches, just overpriced.

The Ali brigade are murdering these on price, QC, and specs. Admittedly they bring nothing of originality. I'm a big Seiko fan but the 5 series is off my list now. Prospex watches are much better and you can find deals that save on price considerably. The 5 series used to be great for newbs but I couldn't recommend these when if you don't want to go the Ali clomage route you can still find a Citizen ""lefty" Promaster (iso rated) or the Orient Kamasu under £200.

While I do like the cream dial version, I think these just get lost in the market (for what you get as a package). For example, you can get an orient (in house movement, well under this price) (I mean the ray/mako is well under $150) with a pretty similar looks and better specs for a lot less money. It's all preference, and I think the prices of these will come down closer to the full size versions of these watches, but there's a lot of hype for not a ton of substance. Lately seiko have been discontinuing everything they do that's affordable and cool. Or limited edition everything.
