Beautifull reinterpretation of the classic 2nd diver of Seiko, the 6105-8110 (the Uemura Diver). The SPB153 case shape and lug to lug dimension makes it also wearable on smaller wrists. Stunning dial colour. 4/5 star, because I think the finishing is slightly better on the MM200 (my 5/5 watch).

Fits great. Smaller than a turtle. Love the sale and color!

Whether you are a fan of Apocalypse Now or not, the Seiko SPB153 is a great and classic dive watch. I, myself, am a fan of the movie and that brings me even greater joy when I wear this quality time machine. Top notch Seiko quality and at a very affordable price.

If you like Seiko watches then this is both a classic design and fantastic sunburst green colour. It is a quality watch but I don't think it warrants the high price. Maybe Seiko are costing this to the hype of the "Captain Willard". I think personally it should be priced at about £600. No regrets from me though as it is my favourite Seiko watch and hopefully will retain its high price.
Watch arrived in pristine condition. Bezel action is solid and aligned perfectly, and has zero play, both sideways and up or down. The sunburst olive green dial, applied indices and brushed handset are all perfectly executed. The crown is sturdy and easy to manipulate. The ergonomics of the case shape allows the watch to sit comfortably on the wrist, helping the SPB153J1 wear far smaller that the case dimensions would suggest. Finally, the strap is excellent quality and suites the aesthetics of the watch, being reminiscent of the SPB153J1’s inspiration, the Seiko 6105.
Bought this over Christmas can't stop wearing it.Comfortable to wear due to the 4 o clock crown position .Very well finished off watch,durable ,easy to read and the lume is amazing .Would highly recommend
This is my 7th. purchase from FCW very impressed with the Willard green face, very comfortable on the wrist. I asked for a price match, which I promptly received. Ordered the watch and it arrived within 24 hours, great service.
