Around the outer edge of the dial, the watch has printed seconds markers in white. As a nice contrasting detail, the watch has a bright red seconds hand which adds to the sportiness and keeps it from being monochrome. The bracelet is made from stainless steel and it comes fashioned in a classic three-link oyster style. The simplistic design of the oyster is celebrated for its practicality as well as its elegance. A deployment clasp is used to fasten the bracelet around the wearer’s wrist. The Functions:

You'll get your money's worth on even an entry level Seiko 5 like this one more often than not. However know up front, like I said, "ANY SEIKO 5 IS A CRAP SHOOT" in precision accuracy out of the box. They were intended to get some post sale attention eventually for a fine tuning. Accuracy to within one minute a week out of the box on a Seiko 5 is great based on my experience. Accuracy freaks will be better off staying away from any mechanical watch at any price. Mechanical watches are like people, they are all different with their little quirks, good points and bad points. Here you have a decent automatic watch that can last you a decade or two depending on how beat up it gets. I like Seiko 5's as a work watch and like this particular one more than the other Seiko 5's I have worn because this one looks old school and keeps the best time. I have a modest collection of watches, including 2 other Seiko 5 models, one of which is 14 years old. So, the Seiko 5 is well known to me. La carga en stand-by (mientras no está en uso) dura 41 horas antes de detenerse y necesitar movimiento para ser cargada. El movimiento es automático, bastante preciso, pero no se le puede dar cuerda de forma manual, únicamente a través del uso o agitando el reloj.The polished markers and hands catch the light beautifully and help give it that premium-watch impression which is a great thing considering its price.

Seiko 5's are not the best automatic watches in the world and nobody in Switzerland is losing sleep over Seiko 5's. However if nothing else Seiko 5's are very durable and since the technology isn't exactly groundbreaking they are super affordable. Translation, Seiko 5's are a decent watch that last a very long time even under rough use, yet relative to anything else that is as durable they are really cheap. In short a bargain if you get one that keeps time out of the box to within 1 minute or so per week. Este es mi primer reloj automático, fuera de un Apple Watch y un Casio A168W que solía usar como daily driver. Me la pasé unas buenas horas viendo reseñas en YouTube intentando realizar la compra más inteligente y al final me decidí por este Seiko. The watch has a fixed polished bezel and brushed lugs. A nice detail of this watch is that the case has polished bevels which enhance the feeling and impassion of quality of this timepiece. Night visibility isn’t great, there’s some limited ‘lume’ applied to the hands, and small dots of ‘lume’ at the foot of each silver baton. However, if you do want a really good watch in the dark, then Seiko do plenty! For starters take a look at the Seiko SNXS75K or SNXS77K. The dial is just clean and elegant like a blank canvas that only has the most important parts left, and nothing unnecessary left. As they say, perfection is met not when there is nothing more to add, but when there is nothing left to remove. Seiko 5 SNKL41 movement

I am very happy with this little "Fleiger style" watch, particularly with it's dial, which compares to any that I have seen in the affordable watch space. The dial has a great deal of well composed detail, this is subtle and hard to see in photographs. In person this very inexpensive watch actually looks high-end. The watch is fitted with a stainless steel bracelet that is mostly satin-finished but has some polished parts. They are all affordable price, ranging from less than a hundred dollars up to a few hundred dollars. The most popular of the bunch, at least amongst watch enthusiasts is the Seiko 5 sports, which are watches that are sporty, robust, and durable. The mechanical watches in the Seiko 5 collection have been enchanting watch lovers around the world since the early 1960s. It is one of the best-selling automatic watch lines worldwide and has always been aimed at sporty watch enthusiasts who are young at heart.

The watch is equipped with the automatic Seiko caliber 7S26C. This watch beats with a frequency of 21600 BPH (6 beats per second) and has a power reserve of about 41 hours. It is equipped with 21 jewels. A common issue with affordable watches is that the part that is generally compromised with the most is the bracelet, and that is also the case with the SNKL41. The stainless steel bracelet has folded links which makes the watch rattle and just feel cheap. The good news is that thanks to its design with combined polished and brushed elements, it looks great with the case, and is actually quite comfortable to wear. Si escoges los modelos que inician SNX, nota que la correa, parte de la caja y el dial son diferentes, si bien la calidad es la misma, tiene ligeras diferencias estéticas que te podrían parecer más o menos atractivas según tu gusto. Esto es particularmente notorio en la correa, la correa de los SNX es la de menos calidad, no tiene ningún acabado y se asemeja, precisamente, a la de un Casio A168W. En lo personal, por eso escogí el SNKL, su correa tiene dos franjas paralelas de metal pulido (cromado) que le dan más personalidad.The watch has a white dial with a slightly matte finish and overall actually looks really well-finished. The matte finish gives it an almost silver look at times depending on how the light hits it. The SNKL45 is also extremely versatile and meant as an everyday watch. Regardless of the occasion, this watch will work as your trusted friend and timekeeper, and it will look great whilst serving you. Die Seiko SNXS79K ist eine elegante und zeitlose Armbanduhr, die mich mit ihrem minimalistischen Design und ihrer hochwertigen Verarbeitung absolut überzeugt hat.
