What is your wrist size ?

트렉끼 좀 빼라

I own this model. Bought in circa 2014 at the same time I bought the Snowflake because I could not choose between them.. Any idea what difference there is between the SBGH001 and the SBGH001-J? I noticed that online only recently but haven't found any mention. They look exactly the same to me, but why the "J"?

Great and thoughtful video. Thank you. I also love the SPB151. Now your YT video is 2 years old. How did your opinion about your SPB237 change?

Late to the party, but, that's a lovely piece and different.

It's a gorgeous watch! I'm hoping to be able to purchase one, but I'm in the U.S.

if your going to do watch vids please learn how to pronounce its pro-spex not pros-pex it stands for professional-- specification

Gorgious watch. Im still tossing up whether to go jubilee or president bracelet.

Whoah! I had only seen the green dial verison before (my dream watch) but this one looks awesome aswell!

Thanks for review. How did you manage 20% off at the Seiko boutique?

The watch looks awesome, congrats mate. Great review and a lot more in depth than other reviews out there.

Good stuff mate. The Seiko SPB489 Australian Alpinist is a horological masterpiece that captures the essence of the sun-baked Australian Outback. This limited-edition timepiece is a testament to Seiko's mastery of design and craftsmanship, offering a compelling blend of rugged functionality and refined aesthetics. The watch's striking red dial, inspired by the fiery hues of the desert, is a feast for the eyes. The textured surface, reminiscent of the arid landscape, adds depth and character to the dial. The gold accents on the hour markers and inner compass bezel provide a touch of elegance, contrasting beautifully with the vibrant red hue. The Alpinist's case design is both robust and sophisticated. The brushed finish and polished bevels create a sense of refinement, while the sturdy construction ensures durability. The watch sits comfortably on the wrist, thanks to its well-proportioned 39.5mm diameter and 47.7mm lug-to-lug distance. Powering the SPB489 is the reliable 6R35 movement, offering a robust 70-hour power reserve. This movement provides accurate timekeeping and smooth operation, making it suitable for everyday wear and extended outdoor excursions. The Seiko SPB489 Australian Alpinist is more than just a watch; it is a wearable work of art that evokes a sense of adventure and wanderlust. Its limited edition status and unique design make it a highly coveted timepiece for collectors and enthusiasts alike. Keep up the good work

I just got this 1 week ago Wears excellent on my 6,4in wrist. And true, doesnt look thick at all. Im not a dress watch person as well, so lack of lume is a bit of gettting used to. Other than that, exquisite time piece

Thank you for the review. I have the identical watch, from new, on nylon strap, 2½ months old. A couple of things I thought might improve the presentation, if it helps: You kept moving the watch about; easier to see the details if you kept it still or make slow movements, not like jiggering it about - and - most of the time we saw the reflection of the light on the glass, sort of got in the way of seeing any detail. One other thing, in the closeups, and only now and then because the watch kept moving around, looks like some chips in the anti-reflection coating. A shame, if you look closely, of course we don't know if it happened with the previous owner - maybe, they had it longer. Many thanks.

This is the Holy Grail. I hope Seiko doesn’t discontinue it before I can buy it.

I got this last week and absolutely adore it. Perfect watch.

No otf microadjust which is pretty disappointing

Thank you for the review!

The presenter who did the double logo and single logo right so many times. Then the title of this video lead someone like me to believe they’re going to show the 201. Which he did not for some odd reason and just fumbled around with this watch the entire time.

I dont think it is painted, ceramic og blued

It's not a Spirit Zulu. Great watch though.

I dont think it's grade 5? i dont see it their official website. congratulations

Absolutely stunning, whats your thoughts on the lug to lug? longines seem to have long lug to lug specs.

Love the new Seiko Sam. Great video!

Nice review. Do you think the polished SS bracelet version is too shiny or blingy looking?

2:36 That’s not what “lug-to-lug” means. That’s its “effective length”. 7:58 and screws do not provide extra security. Pins also allow the bracelet to be thinner.

never understood why people talk over music. such a distraction.

Nice! The "willard" here I cant get around that the crown is at wrong position. Original has crown position at ~21 minute and this has at ~19 min. It dosent sounds that much but when you see it then it is hard to get it unseen.😂 And that also mess up the "crown gards" width/size. Their propotions is then out of wack..😅

Hey, which Australian dealer did you purchase from? I would like to purchase from the same :)

Great review! I own this watch as well and I was also blown away by the level of finishing when I received it. I would say it's at least on par if not a bit better than my IWC Pilot Mark XX, and very similar to Omega/Rolex. Other than the lugs being 21mm, this would be as close to a perfect watch as it gets.

Ive have the 201 and it is a beautiful watch its a grand seiko classic.

The watch is great. But your ring-camlight is horrible. I always can see the reflections of that light in the glass of the watch...

I also own the SPB237 its a great looking watch, what won me over was that amazing Grey dial.This watch in Australia cost me $1995.00 👍 Au

Jesus Christ, the entire video is out of focus.

Which shop in Melbourne ??

You have great taste for watches and as a consequence such a great collection. Many of your watches are aspirational future purchases I hope to make. From a fellow Aussie. Well done!!

Complimenti splendido

I hope you still have it and are enjoying it a year + later.

Thanks for sharing your enthusiasm for this watch. Great video.

I’ve sort of become obsessed with this video. I’ve been watching reviews of this watch (while I wait for a raise at work till I buy one) and came across your video. Between the great closeup video of the watch, the lovely choice of evening jazz music, and the calm relaxing voice, I keep watching this video in the background over and over. Thanks!

How durable is the gold coating.? Will it tarnish over time.?

absolutely embarassing that tudor can't make a GMT under 14mm.

I have the green one on a green rubber strap. This one would look good on a blue rubber strap. I don't like Nato straps because they add height to the watch.

I hear doxa is not the best made watch but what's your opinion?

Day is "NICHI". That mean is Sunday by Japanese. So this watch is Japanese version.

Seems the short love affair for big heavy thick over the top watches has broken and the pendulum is swinging back the other way. Watch peeps complained for decades that they wanted bigger, thicker watches with a ton of wrist presence. Now everyone wants smaller thinner lighter watches. IMO 14.5mm is not overly thick for a Sports watch and a 39/40mm case diameter is a classic size. We’ve come full circle just like the old school watch experts said we would. Beautiful watch. Been eyeing one but waited for the mania around it to die down. Tons of used on the market for considerable discounts. I guess people couldn’t live with the thickness because everything else about this Tudor BB Pro ticks all the right boxes for a daily driver

Beautiful

The lugs on this watch are ridiculous
