About this deal

For over 50 years, Seiko 5 Sports has delivered consistently high levels of reliability, durability, performance and value, endearing them to lovers of mechanical watches worldwide. Today, with a new design, this much-loved timepiece is re-born.

Description Seiko 5 Automatic Blue Dial Silver Stainless Steel Mens Watch SNKA05K1 The Case and Bracelet:There’s not much to complain about when it comes to the finishing of the case. In fact, the combination of both brushed and polished elements is not something we expect from a watch at this price. I am not impressed with the band. Somewhat on the inexpensive side and it is being replaced with a Hondinkee Grey Distressed Leather in a 22mm size. It should go well with the matte grey casing. Preference (casing) would have been done all in stainless steel. Looks cleaner The Seiko 5 Sport series was first released in 1963, its creation aimed at providing stylish yet affordable automatic watches to the younger generation of the 60s. 50 years later, the Seiko 5 Sport has been reborn, each model showcasing the key traits of the original models as well as new, updated features. Continuing with this review, we get to what is in my opinion the most remarkable aspect of this Seiko SRPE77, the ice blue dial. Not only does the dial have a beautiful brushed sunray finish, but it also appears to have a woven texture that, once more, I’ve yet to encounter on any other Seiko 5 Sports watch. Ceaseless determination to innovate in every aspect of the watchmaker’s art is what defines Seiko’s 135-year history. By embracing this ethos, Seiko has been responsible for a string of industry-leading advances in the technology of time. Notably, the creation of the world’s first quartz watch in 1969. Or equally impressive the creation of the world’s first TV watch in 1982. And even more relevant today, with our abhorrent use of non-renewable energy sources, Seiko’s Kinetic. This watch had the ability to generate its own power from the movement of the wearer, it was released in 1988. The listed technological developments serve as evidence to illustrate the revolutionary impact which Seiko has had on the watchmaking world. They are also remarkably unique in that they manufacture every aspect of every watch in-house. They even grow their own quartz crystals and sapphires, hence why Seiko are renowned for being watchmaking experts.

This watch is the ultimate testament to the fact that affordable does not have to equal ”bad” or ”low quality”. The watch is simple but works. It is very straightforward and simply a nice watch.The bracelet of this watch has pressed metal links. These are light and feel rattly. The best way to identify an affordable watch is by feeling its bracelet, and this is true even for this watch.
