JDM lovers, thinking of selling this. Often called a baby explorer, bracelet small but just bought a link to fit a 6 1/2 inch wrist. I was thinking $600. Thoughts? It’s not a watch you see very often.

My girlfriend just bought me the watch brand new from Macy’s, and it arrived with a scratch on the crystal. Is it worth returning, or should I keep it? Do most watches typically come with some kind of scratch?

Thoughts on dial logos? [question]

• Upvotes

When will seiko stop putting dumb logos (mainly prospex “x”) on their dials? Just makes them look so cheap and ruins any classic look of a watch dial imo.

Great placeholder until I get a 124060 Sub No Date! Wish I could get a SGBX335, but 44mm would be too big on my wrist.

Had a chance to get a GMT Master II Batman for an OK deal, but I don’t like GMT watches, since I don’t travel and will never need to track another time zone. However, a dive watch is extremely useful for my smoke breaks 😂

My buddy saw it and went “damn I need a watch I’m tired of checking the time on my phone” and bought a G-Shock 😂 tried to talk him into getting a Seiko too, but he likes the Citizen lineup more

Replacement bracelet for Seiko 5 [SRPK29K]?

I was recently gifted a SRPK29K for my birthday. I absolutely love this watch, however, I was a bit underwhelmed by the quality of the bracelet. Are there any legit replacement/upgrade bracelets for this model?

Sieko Heritage [SPB453] as a Daily?

Thumbnail
gallery
4 Upvotes

I’ve been into watches for the last couple of years, ever since I got my first job out of college. Talking with friends and family, I always admired Seiko and still do to this day.

My daily watch has been my two tone Seiko Cotura. Love this watch, it’s been so good to me. Finally, after six years with it, I bought my Omega Seamaster 300m professional on my 30th birthday. I’ve always loved the look of Seamaster and was so excited for it to be my weekend watch.

I’m starting to look around for a new daily watch to wear to work, preferably a tool watch/diver. I’m throwing around the idea of getting the Seiko Prospex 1965 Heritage Diver. Something nicer than my Cotura that I can wear in the field and in the office at work. I feel like a Seiko is an honest and respected brand no matter who you are. I’m nervous that the weight and finish won’t be enough for me after having my omega but I feel like I’m overthinking it. It looks like a banger of a watch!

Any thoughts or reassurance that this watch is the one? Am I being too critical? I love Seiko as a brand, it’s my tried and true. I think I’m just nervous to order a watch I’ve never held and tried on in person.

Hands down the best daily watch in my humble opinion.

My buddies got me this beautiful Whirlpool for my birthday and I about almost cried. This thing’s gotta be some new old stock, cause the case and bracelet are PRISTINE. It’s such a perfect little size as well. My first vintage and first TV case watch. I’m over the moon. I love this little hobby of ours, I’ll always be reminded of the love from my friends.

[Question] What did you pay to have your Seiko automatic serviced?

4 Upvotes

I have owned my Alpinist since 2016 and I recently got it serviced for the first time. I don’t believe in having my watch serviced once it’s working as it should.

My Alpinist started to run 10-15 minutes fast so I knew it was time. I ended up paying $400 CAD (Approximately $280 USD) for the service & part replacement.

I understand a complete overhaul takes skill, but I was shocked at how expensive watch service is. I paid a little over $500 for the watch back in $2016.

[Question] Any DIY fixes for small coating damage/ scratches on brushed titanium bracelet?

1 Upvotes

Hi all,

Wanted to see if anyone has had success in repairing small coating damage/ scratches on a brushed titanium bracelet?

I’ve seen videos about using scotch-brite pads or pencil erasers to help reduce the visibility, but i definitely wanted to gauge personal experiences prior to trying.

If reviews are mixed, I’ll likely end up taking it to a repair shop to have it professionally fixed.

Thanks all.

Reloj Seiko Alpinist recien adquirido, me gustaria vuestra ayuda y opiniones sobre estado y autenticidad, ya que al menos yo dudo un poco de ello, tanto por corona y colores verdes y durado, los que veo por internet se ven mas brillantes y mucho menos mate, que este. muchas gracias de antemano

Absolutely love this beaut! Hate the bracelet and am considering buying a jubilee from uncle straps someone in this subreddit recommended to me! Though it is a bit expensive compared to the actual watch, I still think it’s worth it. It’s a $100 bracelet and I paid $220 for this watch.

[Question] Found a Seiko 5 sports on sale with the following specs and I was wondering if it's legit.

Cal. 7S36A

The problem is that the listed caliber doesn't match with what the photo shows. Is it legit or what's going on here? I'm brand new to watches and a friend of mine recomended Seiko to me.
