Seiko Men's Analogue Automatic Watch Seiko 5 Sports

Product Information

Although we do our best to ensure our pictures and descriptions explain our products as clearly as possible, sometimes you may find that when your item arrives it's not quite as you expected, or you may have simply changed your mind. A sophisticated looking men's watch from Seiko with an automatic movement powering the day/date display mechanism. You can always look for videos online on how to size a Seiko 5 Sports bracelet but it does take some skill and tools. That being said, perhaps this relatively affordable Seiko is not a bad watch to practice on and learn how to do it yourself.

The dial is surrounded by a raised minuted track that also has silver minute markings on a black background. Unfortunately we are seeing delays in some area with DPD as many companies are using them as an alternative to Royal Mail due to their regular strikes at this time. Sitting atop the case is a unidirectional steel bezel that is textured on its outer perimeter to aid in rotating the bezel.

The mechanism within the watch is 4R36 automatic movement which is built in house and the calibre is comprised of 24 Jewels and a 41-hour power reserve. The mechanical specifications of the Seiko 4R36 include a 41-hour power reserve, self-winding, winding via the crown, hacking/stop-seconds function, and +45/-35 secs/day accuracy. The clasp has a fold over safety catch for added security and there is a window in the rear of the case allowing you to see into the mechanics of the watch. Powering the SBSA005, and visible through the crystal caseback, is a self-winding Seiko 4R36 caliber. We will be happy to exchange or refund purchases made from Sunday 1st October 2023 up until Friday 5th January 2024.

The differences between a Japanese market version of this model and the international market version are minimal and only cosmetic. Over top of the case and protecting the face of the watch is a Seiko Hardlex crystal that is scratch-resistant and shatterproof.

Matching the finish of the hour indices are the center hands which themselves are quite large and therefore make it very easy to read the time. One can see that the bridges have a detailed brushed finish and other components, including geartrain wheels, have been polished. And lastly, as a project watch that you may use to learn how to customize (“mod”) Seiko sports models, the SBSA005 is also irreplaceable.This being the Made in Japan model, there is some small print below the 6 o’clock index that denotes this. Yet again, as has been common for many past Seiko divers like the SKX and many others within the 5 Sports line, the subject of this review boasts a dual-finish case. The full bracelet is quite long so it’s likely that you’ll have to size it down to fit your wrist properly. We then take the watch out of the polythene bag and put it on the display cushion in the official box before sending.
