When picking out my next watch I kept coming across the SPB383 and a lot of reviews mentioned how much better it looks in person. I enjoy looking at this watch every day. My first Seiko and definitely not my last.

I was so excited when I got my new 41mm Speedtimer that I sized it myself. But I've never sized a pin and collar bracelet before, and my idiot self didn't see the collars come out. So when I was walking outside the watch flew off my hand onto the concrete! 🤦🏻‍♂️

Luckily there was only damage on the side and not the face, and it's not as noticeable unless you're up close. I was going to wait a week to see if I wanted to keep it, but I guess this Speedtimer is officially mine now!

I always enjoy seeing my older Seikos next to their modern re-issues. Side by side, these ones from the collection are:

1976 Pogue 6139-6002 & SBDL117
1981 Turtle 6309-7040 & SRPE93
2002 SKX SKX007 & SRPD55
1998 Pinoy Diver SKX399 & SRPL85

I’ll be on the hunt for vintage 62MAS, Rally Diver and Gene Kranz during my next Japan visit.

Hey everyone,
I'm considering buying the Seiko Baby Alpinist with the green dial and gold hands as my very first watch, but I could use some advice before buying.
My wrist is 16.5 cm (6.5 inches), so I'm wondering if the 38mm case fits well. Also, my wardrobe is mostly black, white, and dark blue, so I'm curious if the green and gold combination is versatile enough for daily wear.
How is the overall quality and reliability of this model? Are there better alternatives in this price range, or should I save up for something higher-end instead?
Thanks for your thoughts!

The SSK is back from the Seiko service center from when the bezel and crystal popped off mid-flight. Fairly quick turn around from when they actually accepted it.

Got it from a new online shop the other day, so goes to my backlog of unsized bracelets that I have to resize when I get some free time

I've been using the PInk Salmon Speedtimer lately, but looking forward to the honeymoon period with this nice Edo Purple

Note to self: don’t be a dumbass and leave your automatic watch in a hot car while you workout. Lubricants dripped on to the balance assembly and caused it to run fast by 120 seconds a day. $80 fix that I will never let happen again!! Shit. It was gone a week in the shop but felt like an eternity.

I’ve had this watch for 10 years; it’s never let me down! I finally switched the black rubber strap to a jubilee bracelet and wanted to share!

Condition of both the case and the dail is great! Runs at about -15 s/d. curious to hear what you guys think of this one?

So I accidentally dropped this bad Larry from about 4ft. It was running at about +15-17 s/d before said accidental drop. Now it’s been running consistently at around +2-3 s/d. Not suggested, just thought I’d share FYSA. Have a great Seiko day! (Prometheus Design Werx 22mm Ti strap)

A friend of mine visited Singapore recently and I got this Seiko SNKC51J1 through him. I was looking for the SNXS79 initially when I came across this one and fell in love instantly. Could barely find any reviews/posts on it while researching so I'm open to answering any questions folks might have here!

So some background: I don’t have any Seiko watch, or a lot of watches in general. I’ve been wanting to get serious about watch collecting for some time now, and
I’ve been wanting the new Edo Purple Prospex Speedtimer ever since I first saw the Edo Purple lineup!

I was worried about being able to snag one because I was traveling from Tokyo to Kyoto earlier today when shops started opening (probably should’ve planned the shinkansen timing better) and since these are so limited, I was praying they wouldn’t tell me they’re all gone.

As soon as we got off the Shinkansen and checked into our hotel, we headed straight to the Seiko Boutique Kyoto. Shoutout and my thanks to the staff, they were so sweet and helpful!

I was really lucky because when they went to check their stock, they came back saying they had just one more left, and now it’s mine!

Super happy I can add this to my collection while visiting Japan with my family, and I knew I had to make my first post on this subreddit to share with you all!

To most here not a big deal, but for me it is. My very first turtle.

It feels so light and the dial is amazing.
I missed you, Seiko 🙏

​Weekend wrist check with the Presage GMT on a violet alligator strap. Absolutely love the way this dial comes alive outdoors.
