Finally a proper review. Can’t let go this one past few days, just in love with the colour and appearance ❤️

Saw it today at a retail store and it is really beautiful! Great review. Definitely on my shopping list ⌚❤️

I bought one of these as my hiking watch. It looks more expensive than it is. It is also very comfortable and unobtrusive. I really enjoy it.

A Sammie on a silicon strap feels so comfortable... Its just so good on the wrist.

Thanks for the video , just what I needed to watch before I made the purchase. Very nice close ups man, awesome!

Yeah it's a home run! Beautiful watch! ❤ Awesome Review! Totally worth the wait! 🔥

I own the Seiko Samurai it is a great watch to own I would love to own this one Its an awesome looking watch

I own a save the ocean edition samurai and I have to say it's a bit chunky and wears kinda top heavy i do wear it maybe once a month but not much more, nice job on your reviews.

Have the Baby MM Reduced with Stainless Steel bezel, it's about twice the price of the Samurai but it's on a bracelet and has a 6r35 not a 4r, checked the prices at my favorite JDM dealer. Still that Sammi Padi and it's siblings look great. $558 with free shipping and have about $25 in loyalty credit thinking about the Padi or the Save the Ocean Manta Ray which is $80 more but on bracelet. Love the blue dial on it. BTW have the Seastar for a few years and don't wear it much. I do think the Baby and Willard are superior watches and it's reflected in the price. Love your Seiko reviews, FWIW the Sammy would be duty free because it's under $800. And they never hit me up for the Willard and Baby MM, just got lucky they're like $1180 each. One watch I got from your reviews was the Sharp Edge GMT. Becoming my favorite Seiko.

Nice burn on the Tissot! 😂 Beautiful video as usual. Makes this watch pop!

Those watch macro shots both convinced me to sub and to buy the watch, well done!

Hey mate, if you’re modding watches, maybe do a video on seiko chapter ring misalignment, how the ring is fitted and can it be adjusted to perfect alignment.

Excellent Macros FT... Gorgeous Dial 😍

I just bought this model, love it

If I were to get another Samurai, this would be it.

My date changes at night, but day changes after a few hours. Is it okay, or i need to set the day when the date changes at midnight. Please advise Sir

it's a little strange why they didn't painted the lume on the minute hand and on the pip in a different color like they did with the previous padi.

Big, beautiful watch. Thank you!

Great review, thank you. Green lume instead of mixed, strap instead of bracelet. Less legible bezel. Think I'd buy a previous version PADI and put up with the hardlex crystal.

I feel the white one calling to me ... until I look at the dark manta ray one, then I'm torn which I prefer. I have 6.5 inch wrists too, so I'm not sure about the size. The marinemaster reduced is nice as well... for some reason Seiko watches are the ones I like the most.

It's better to turn the bezel from 12 and 6 position . It feels good to turn and you can tell it was designed to be gripped that way.

Love this watch

Great vdo as always. Very funny intro. 😁😁😁😁😁😁

Im stuck trying to choose between this padi and the king samurai save the ocean dark manta... Arghh

At least the tissot doesn’t have shyt quality control like seiko-and I’m a seiko fanboy- just got a presage limited edition gmt. Awesome looking watch…

Great showcase! Do you keep the watches or give them back to kavar?

Ohhh qué fino es!!!, qué bonito,vengo de ver el vídeo del tortuga y no sé cuál me gusta más....tortuga o samurái 🤷 Un saludo!

beautiful watch

Sharp looking watch! Debating on getting this or the SRPE37 🤔

It’s 2024 and I’m headed today to my local shop and hope he can get me one.

Beautiful watch and video quality

Got mine today. 20% discount bank holiday offer. Looks great.

Fall 7 times get up 8! 😆

Excelente video 😀

I would love to buy it, but every single one of my samurais had to be send back for corrections on dial because of horrible qc. Im not going there again and will stick with Tissot

I have the SRPE33, great watch but doesn’t keep very good time for some reason - stops after couple days - frustrating. Great looking watch though.

Woman ooh black 2nd hand white tip 👏😮👏wow

The Tissot would probably be aligned

Yeah that's a great colour way.

Dude you have A LOT of t-shirts !

your perfectly right on the seastar 🤣😂😆

Is this model Samurai or King Samurai?…im confused already because theres so many model 😅

Nice!

Ya right? Who wants to own a Tissot sea star🤢🤢🤮

I guess Seiko divers are better bought in store, ewhere one can check on missalignements and all those QC problems. Other Seikos, no problem buying online.

I like the color scheme but It's strange to see a PADI edition without the standard red white and blue. It was always easy to spot a PADI edition. The new color scheme is just kinda meh

The bezel is actually ceramic

Should be the sexiest versrion of the Samurai.

I see on Amazon at 468 it's that real

ceramic insert?

Seiko need to stop with that silly misalignment and cyclops...ffs.... Great Video again buddy! Cheers!

It is almost identical to the “save the rays” that I bought. Mine gains 20 seconds per day. If this doesn’t improve I’m going to regret the purchase. The lume is great for 15 minutes. My Casio T200 is good for 2 hours and readable with effort even at 4 hours. Disappointing lume on this Seiko.

No date = take my money now!

How many years can this bangle, strap last from silicon?

Wow got this for $378.75

Pretty hard to clown on the Seastar when you're holding a 4R35 with half the power reserve and a glaringly botched chapter ring and dial. Sad.

I would buy more Seikos if it wasn't for price and QC issues.

Morning.. Watching this from my office 😁

Wow cool blue movie sexy ooh 💙6r35 should have been doh!!!!

Good video

127 grams on a rubber strap I don't think is accurately characterized as "ultra light". That bezel action sounded really unpleasant. The lousy but predictable accuracy, combined with the lousy but predictable alignment both really seal the deal for me. No bueno. You should have taken your lady friend's advice. She's got a lot of valuable feedback.

I like your channel man and will definitely keep watching and I do like Seiko's but I noticed you love to lavish praise on Seiko and rip on the Swiss pieces but you know something Mr. Titan? The Swiss know how to line up chapter rings and dial markers. Seiko has no clue how to do something as simple as just making bezels, chapter rings etc. line up and at least the Swiss always asked a lot for they're watches unlike Seiko suddenly deciding they are going to charge Longines prices for basic watches with misalignment. Sorry, losing that Seiko love real quick now. Sticking with my Certina.

I CANNOT BELIEVE THE QC!…OR LACK OF IT! 😢

It's between 20+ or 20- every day that not good

👍

It would be better without that ridiculous cyclops.

You are not kind with Tissot. That’s not fair. You shouldn’t shoot on ambulance. 😅

Blue vs. Red Underwater (+UV underwater) In a video could you kindly shine a UV flashlight on these new PADI models, to show if the blue might fluoresce under water? As some divers have commented (see: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-eAKu8Vex0Dw.html ) the previous PADI red simply turns black after a few meters of being underwater, making it much harder to see when actually diving (a color/materials goof perhaps for a PADI approved dive watch...presumably intended to actually be used and more (not less) readable underwater) Blue on the other hand is a color that travels further under water than red, so perhaps not turning grey-black under water as quickly. However, if the dial also fluoresces (not lume, but fluorescence en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fluorescence ) in the UV light that travels furthest underwater, that color/material will actually glow brighter and be extra visible for divers (see videos on colors/materials fluorescing: under water ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-AAJjdA6b4Ts.html ) But without seeing a UV light test...we don't know if the minute hand will glow blue under water or just turn black... Thank you!

ROFL!

Blue murder

beautiful but turtle is better

Another misaligned Seiko. Surprise surprise. Great design, shite execution, which sadly is the norm for this previously great brand. Very sad.
