I had 5 watches in my collection prior to buying the Seiko 5 SNXS73, from a 10 casio that I wear at night to an Omega diver that I wear as my main watch. But I wanted to add a cheap but respectable automatic (Seiko 5 was the obvious choice) that I can wear with a tshirt as the weather starts to warm up. I wanted something smallish, light and conformable and something that would look good on the wrist without being too sporty. This Seiko seemed to fit the bill perfectly. The bracelet is light and hollow and dare I say a bit cheap feeling but it's no less that what I expected, and I actually like the look and feel of it, and I appreciate what the watch is meant to be, which is an affordable automatic that can be worn anywhere.

My watch is currently running about 2 seconds slow a day so incredibly accurate so far but we'll see how it settles in over time. I'd prefer it to be a bit more water resistant as I'm reluctant to shower with it, even though I'm sure it would be fine. All round great watch for what I needed it for, it looks great (if im being cheeky a bit rolex datejust perhaps!) and for the price it's a steal. It fills a hole in my collection and I'll be definitely adding another Seiko soon (maybe an SKX or Sarb).

I prefer the secondary language be Spanish. Not whatever I received. I have absolutely no idea what the symbols are but I know it’s not one I would want to study or attempt to learn.

Seiko created the "5" logo for watches that possess the following qualities: Automatic, Shock Proof, Water Proof, Day Display, Date Display. This watch is no exception but also possesses the five hallmarks of any great watch: quality, clarity, style, accuracy and value. On recieving the watch I was instantly impressed with the finishing to the case and the solid feel in the hand. Its dial is elegant and extremely easy to read with a good amount of lume for darker environments. The style of the watch could be described as dressy, but it has an inherent ruggedness to it aswell and would not look out of place either in the office or in the field. The 7s26 movement is keeping excellent time straight out of the box; within +/- 10 seconds per day. And the best bit - all ... MoreSeiko created the "5" logo for watches that possess the following qualities: Automatic, Shock Proof, Water Proof, Day Display, Date Display.
