Men's SNKD99 5 Stainless Steel Blue Dial Watch

I have come to really appreciate the quality of Seiko mechanical watches. And I like watches with NO batteries to Ever have to replace. This is my 5th mechanical Seiko 5, and they are all reliable, stylish, quality watches. This one is by far the least expensive of the 5, but after 6 months of use, seems to be every bit as good a watch as the other ones. The blue face is a beautiful distinction from the more common watch face colors. The luminous glow of the hands and hour markers is very long lasting, compared to most watches these days that do not have tritium faces. It will glow enough to see all night when exposed to light before bedtime. It keeps great time and easily stays wound up as long as I wear it every day. I picked this and the other Seiko watches I have for the smaller size, which is hard to find these days of monster watch case sizes. The only complaint I have is the link removal design on the Seiko bracelet is difficult for resizing the band. I took 4 links out to fit my small wrist.

This Seiko has a mesmerizing deep blue dial and awesome looking minute indexes that imo looks better than the Sarb series costing much more. The machined finish bezel with engraved numerals rounds out this great looking watch. You have to wear it for the auto wind feature to work as expected. No battery or manual wind needed.

This watch is absolutely stunning, the blue dial and the machining on the face is exquisite. The bracelet has a simple, yet timeless look to it and the clasp, while it is stamped has a very expensive feeling cover. You cannot go wrong for this quality of automatic watch with in house movement with a display case back for this price. A definite buy.

I really like these Seiko 5 watches a lot. This is my 2nd one. They are not without their faults though. I highlight what I like about them first and then their faults. I like these mainly because they are fully mechanical self winding watches. I love the concept. Not only because they require no batteries, but also because I find them to be mechanical marvels! A fully mechanical watch that keeps good time for under $100, sign me up. If worn daily, as mine is, it never needs winding and the battery never goes dead, because there isn't one. As I stated this is my second Seiko 5 and this one keeps better time out of the box than my last one. It is off less than 30 seconds per week. My last one was off about 1 minute per day and took me quite a while to get it dialed in. This watch is also well made and has a very nice looking face and hands. I have no complaints about the build quality on these. I especially like the blue face of this one in particular. Along with keeping good time I also like the Seiko 5 because they not only have the date but also display the day. Working 3rd shift my day starts one day and finishes another, so as dumb as it may sound I sometimes have a hard time keeping track of the day of the week. These watches help me out with that. As I've said though these watches do have some things that could be better. First an foremost is the size of the dial. These watches are pretty small. I don't have huge wrists and they are even a little small for me. They are essentially sized more appropriately as a large women's watch. It takes a little getting used to and if you like a smaller faced watch this may actually be an asset. The watch band is pretty light weight. The watch itself feels well made but the band is pretty light making it feel flimsy. It doesn't seem to have any problem holding up to daily use though so the issue is with feel and not quality. Also the edges of the links are not rounded and can be a little uncomfortable at times. Nothing horrible, just not great. On the plus side the band clips securely yet is very easy to release. It's also a nice looking band if not the best feeling. The final issue I have with these is the watch glass. It is not a mineral glass but some sort of Seiko proprietary material. It gets scratched pretty easily. At least for my use. I work and play pretty hard, working in industry and on cars. The glass will get scratcher pretty quickly until I end up replacing it. The watch will still function fine but the scratches in the glass will annoy me. With my last Seiko 5 I actually broke the glass (just after getting the time tuned in.) A few small pieces fell into the watch and stopped the hands. After I get the pieces out it worked for a while longer but then so e of the numerals came loose and jammed it up again. I finally replaced it. As I said though, I work and play pretty hard. If you don't do things that will damage this watch (most sports won't be any issue at all) and can live with the small face these watches are pretty amazing. If your hard on watches as I am these can work for you, just don't expect them to last forever. For me the biggest issue is the size of the face. I don't really understand why none of the Seiko 5's are available in a larger face. The mechanism could be the same and with the exception of slightly more material, could be identical. I'm sure 5% more SS material wouldn't add much cost. Barring that issue though, I really love these watches.

This is a beautiful watch. I love it and my wife says it’s a very nice looking watch. I am very satisfied with it. I also get a lot of compliments.

El reloj es más bonito ya la tenerlo en mis manos el brazalete se siente ligero Pero en general un excelente reloj

Great watch, genuinely nice details for the price, but after a day or so it has to be adjusted.

I love seiko as a brand. This is a older model that has been around for 20 years but is still a timeless design from seiko. The movement in it is a workhorse that will run for ever without a service to it.

Avevo bisogno di un orologio e lo volevo automatico, affidabile, dal design sobrio ma esteticamente piacevole. Pensavo di dover mettere in conto almeno 500/700 euro per portare a casa qualcosa di degno (Tipo Hamilton fascia base, Citizen fascia media etc.). Per caso inizio a guardare i Seiko e trovo questo modello. Inizialmente sono in dubbio per la misura della cassa, 37 mi sembra una misura un po' piccola ma io ho il polso molto magro per cui, almeno per me, non dovrebbe essere un problema, quanto forse un vantaggio. Due le alternative estetiche: quadrante nero bello, classico, quadrante blu cangiante incognita, potrebbe essere pacchiano se troppo acceso, molto attraente se non eccessivo. Pezzo ridicolo per un automatico di marca nota, ancora di più se con quadrante blu (e pure in Prime). "Per quello che costa vale il tentativo" ho pensato. Sapevo che Seiko è comunque una marca molto affidabile anche per quanto riguarda i movimenti e mi decido sul quadrante blu. Massimizzo il risparmio e mi gioco l'effetto sorpresa. Spedizione velocissima, consegnato un giorno prima rispetto alla tempistica formulata da Amazon. Effetto sorpresa: vincente!! L'orologio è veramente bello, il quadrante blu gli dona un tocco di luce particolare che probabilmente la versione nera non ha. È estremamente proporzionato in se, e per il mio polso è perfetto. Gli indici sono applicati così come il logo seiko e il logo 5, donando così una bella sensazione di profondità al quadrante, e sono lucidati come le lancette, donando un aspetto molto elegante. Il movimento out of the box ha una precisione di +- 6 secondi, ottima anche per orologi di fascia medio alta. Che dire, sono veramente colpito da quanto questo orologio riesca ad offrire, per il prezzo a cui viene venduto.

Bon produit

تم إرجاع الساعة لأن حجمها صغير جدا 30 بالإضافة لوجود scratch واضح وكبير على الزجاج

Eine klassische, nein, vielleicht DIE klassischste aller Automatikuhren. Seit vielen Jahren hergestellt überzeugt dieses Modell mit seiner guten Verarbeitung. Durch die mittlere Größe (37mm Durchmesser) trage ich diese Uhr auch als Frau sehr gerne. Die echten Frauenmodelle der Seiko 5 sind mir ansonsten zu winzig. Weil man das Armband an diesem Modell nicht gegen ein herkömmliches z.B. aus Leder austauschen kann, habe ich nun noch zusätzlich die Seiko 5 Modell SNXS77K bestellt. Diese verfügt über einen klassischen Bandanstoss.

この商品は裏側がスケルトンになっていて秒針の動きがROLEXのような動きをする文字盤がキレイな ブルー色で大変お気に入りです。
