My favorite Seiko is a no nothing stainless Seiko 5 I bought brand new when I was 16 years old. I'm 67 years old now and retired and still own and occasionally wear the watch. The watch went through high school, college and my first real job. I do own an obligatory SKX and couple of Seiko dress watches but when I put this watch on it brings back some good memories. Yes, I had complete service done but that's only one service in over 50 years.

I got Seiko 5 as a gift in 1971 (I was 11 at the time), wearing it next ~10 years and put it in the bottom of the drawer and forgot about it for 37 years. Last year I was doing some cleaning, found it, shake it a bit and - woala, running like champ. And still working just fine 1 year later.

I'm now looking online to see what my next purchase will be and after watching this I'm shopping for another Seiko. I used to just think of Seiko as mall jewelry store watches because that's what I see in the displays of the local shops but I now value them more as a quality built, reliable, affordable time piece with outstanding selection.

The Seiko SKX007 was my first "real" watch, 12 years ago. I fell in love with dive watches at that moment, and especially Seikos with their history and sturdy value. That SKX007 is just back from a servicing, it's first in 12 years. And some might say "Just bin it and buy another", I find that to be the reason we're in such a mess in North America. The disposable society, where nothing is built to last, and obsolescence is built into products, and yet that SKX is still in fantastic shape, and simply needed some gasket love and other tune-ups. It's been with me in the middle of the Pacific, too many other bodies of water to count, and is one of the things I will take should there ever be a fire. My current favourite watch is my SRP779, I simply don't have a watch that sees more wrist time, or that fascinates me like the Turtle does. I plan on adding a few more Turtles to the stable, as well as an SKX009, an "Arnie" and a Tuna at some point. Vintage-wise, I'd LOVE a Pogue, a 6105 too. I will say however that Seiko is faltering in some areas. Price, customer base consideration and QC are to name but a few. It seems they've gotten high on their own supply and have too great a touch of arrogance with whatever their current strategy is.

As a seiko lover myself, this video express me perfectly. THANK YOU! By the way, my favorite seikos are the Grand Seiko Spring Drive and the iconical SKX007 because its possible to mod it in so many ways...

I personally really like their - now retro - digital watches from the 70s, they are just so cool, especially the world timers, I would really love to see their reissue but with at least 10 atm water resistance and an indiglo/electroluminescent backlight, with a solar powered battery.... however now I have an SKX009 which I also really enjoy, especially its retro vibe, toughness and versatility. But I am also a big fan of their retro panda chronographs!

I have just returned from Amsterdam and have visited the Van Gogh museum and was looking at the very same smoking skull painting... Love the video sir
