A Complete Package For Around $700 - Seiko Alpinist SPB121

[@lskit]

My wife bought me the Alpinist for my birthday. It is a beautiful watch. In the sunlight the dial really is spectacular.

[@Songbirdstress]

Would it be hefty for a lady? I need a new daily driver, and the dial would be great.

SARB 017 was my first mechanical watch and it will always be in my collection. I bought it in anticipation for the birth of my first child. I finally achieved my grail this year (Tudor BB Pro) but still if I could only keep one watch it would be my alpinist and it wouldn't even come close. The thing just absorbs all the memories and magic.

On my last trip to Japan I bought a Grand Seiko “snowflake” in Tokyo and this Seiko Alpinist in Kyoto. The high level of customer service and pride they gave me in BOTH watches was the same. The GS/Seiko store treat each watch whether it’s $100 or $10000 with the same pride in craftsmanship.

That’s nice that you felt like royalty in the great service and shopping experience you had.

[@underwaterlevelz1947]

@USMCRonin Same story with sending a piece off to get serviced. Had a Seiko 6t63 00b0 that needed a new battery, it was a gift from my father on my first fathers day, so it has sentimental value. It's not a super expensive watch, only retailed for about $200 brand new 15 years ago. When I got it back, they had done a gorgeous job polishing and cleaning the entire piece, it looked brand new.

I had the SARB017 but hated the old fashioned green tone and its shimmer which, in my opinion, looks odd. I sold it and replaced it with this new iteration and I couldn't be happier.

[@Cody___]

I really wanted my next watch to be Swiss made and I was choosing between a Marathon GSAR or saving up for a Tudor Black Bay 58, but after watching this video, I'm now considering the Alpinist. Its a beautiful watch and the compass bezel is kinda the selling point for me. I'm an avid hiker, so it would be used for its intended purpose, plus it just looks cool.

[@dougstump2520]

So I do a lot of hiking as well -I own this watch, and I've also been searching for a good hiking watch, something that can take a beating and you don't really worry. I looked at the Marathon GSAR and the Muhle Glashutte SAR - which I love. This Alpinist is interesting to me because it doesn't exactly wear as a rugged watch, I wear it to work quite a bit, but it's design heritage is that of an exploration watch. I don't think you could wrong with any of your choices - but if you want something rugged the other watches may do better

[@HabuBeemer]

Nice review Teddy. I have two Sarb 017s and love them both. The Seiko green dial is very nice looking and eye catching in my opinion. One is on a Miltat bracelet which offers better fitment and I recently changed the brown leather strap to a matching green alligator strap which really compliments the green dial. I have a couple other Seiko offerings as well in the mechanical movements. They all keep very good time. The key is to wind them each day whether you think they need it or not. It seems to help with better results. You get a lot of watch for reasonable money. I have a Rolex GMTII as well and the Seikos get more wrist time. No problem with wearing them for sport or for dress.

[@Shizzy77]

SPB209 with the brown dial is my favourite and I think is the one you can dress up and down the most.

[@dalelackey226]

I really enjoyed your comments on this watch. I was looking for an inexpensive watch to wear while my Datejust was off being serviced I looked through Amazon and this watch caught my eye among others including Tissot. I also watched your discussion with Kevin about Tissot. But I kept coming back to this watch. There are several other people discussing this watch on KZbin as well but you explained it the best I think. I went ahead and ordered it this morning and it will be here tomorrow. I have a feeling it's going to have as much wrist time as the Rolex does when I get that back in 8 weeks. It seems to be a very interesting looking watch and I won't use the compass feature I doubt but it's nice to know it's there.

[@HaiNguyen-mj5pd]

Man Teddy! I just visited Asia last month and actually bought this watch at the Seiko. Felt in love with the unique design, and the cyclops is a plus IMO.

[@DeeEllEff]

A great review, Teddy. It may have taken a few years for the solo spotlight to land on it, but after all this time, the Alpinist is still worth both the attention its paid and excellent price point!

[@kingtaj]

I am literally just beginning my watch journey. Prior to this, watches have been purely functional (Timex, Momentum, Apple, Casio). Today, I bought this Alpiner model because it just speaks to me aesthetically and seems super solid for the price. I'm excited to start my collection here.

Heh. I understand that my opinion is unpopular, but, to me, this one is the ugliest of all. It ticks all my boxes in reverse and then some.

I own the watch and love it to bits. One interesting thing is that they use the same strap sizing as the grand Seikos so you can essentially change the strap while keeping the butterfly clasp from Seiko. And that made me love the watch a lot more. I do find that some of the unique color options particularly difficult to pair such as the green dials and would love to see what straps you’d recommend for it.

I've owned this watch for two years. I think the dial is striking without feeling dressy. I will admit that I wish it was 1mm larger, but it still works well. I did not wear this as much as other watches until I swapped out the strap for a light saddle brown leather buckle strap, and then it became my daily watch for much of the time.

[@johnnelson9252]

Just to keep expectations realistic, I have the "Baby Alpinist" with the same movement. When I got it, it was losing about 16 seconds per day, so I sent it back to SEIKO in New Jersey. I got it back some weeks later, and it settled in to a whopping -21 to 24 seconds a day. Hold that next to Teddy's +5 to +8 seconds per day. If reasonable accuracy is important to you, you should keep this in mind.

[@HabuBeemer]

That's pretty unusual for Seiko. I have 4 mechanical Seikos; two Alpinists, Sarb 033, and Presage. They all keep very good time. I've made it a point to give the one I'm wearing a wind in the morning even though they do have a power reserve and perhaps that may help. Sorry to hear it's not working well for you.

[@eduardopenafiel2341]

Own this very model and I love it. I’ve removed the original leather strap as it doesn’t really make sense, but I pair it with a camel yellow leather strap and a green glossy leather strap and boom 💥, it just elevates the watch to a class above in the elegance category. I’m currently using it with an oyster bracelet. 👌Versatility is the name of this watch, definitely a strong GADA contender 👏🏼

I bought this watch in 2020, not long after it came out. It's a good, solid watch. I like the dial and handset and I appreciate the high contrast of the lume one the hands against the dark green face. I think the exhibition case back is a bit of a waste and it could have been a touch slimmer without it, but it's just another bit of quirkiness. This was my first mechanical watch since I moved beyond Timex watches with quartz watches in the 70s and I like it.

[@wonderwomanguy]

Love the green and gold together and its utilitarian nature. Looking the image of the older model with the black nylon strap, I'd be more likely to change it to something like that for everyday use. Was thinking of the cocktail Seiko in the same colors, but maybe I should save a little more and invest here....

[@evanflynn9987]

I purchased this watch after watching this video. I did purchase it from your site Teddy. I really like it for what it is. The only issue I had was that I had never owned a watch with a screw down crown before so I thought there was a problem with the watch.

You really should explain, to the watch novice, what this means and how it works.

I love mine, the only grip is the strap that just didn't feel comfortable. I swapped that out for a different leather strap with a deployant clasp and it was transformed.

[@zsoltprokai7310]

I have owned this model past year, but I have sold it. Really liked the size (it can effortlessly slide under the cuff), the elegant, incomparable-to-anything-else style. I have sell it, because it was not as I expected from videos or from well lighted photo studio pictures. The green, was GREEN of course. When the light was enough. When not (normal office light conditions) the green was only a dark, nearly black mass. I like to wear dark/black clothes, so the golden hands/indexes reflected them alot and because the reflections they was DARK or BLACK. In the office mostly the white lume and the date was visible, everithing else was a dark mess with thin golden lines. Like in the video at 4:40, just a bit darker. The leather(???) band was rubbish. It has rub off the skin from my wristbone, so I have purchased a good quality MILTAT Jub style (not the Angus) bracelet. It was perfect, minus the visibility. So I have purchased the SPB123 (cream dial-golden hands/indexes) model, and the visibility are much better (not perfect), the factory (ugly green) leather strap are far better than the SPB121 had, but I do not liked it's colour, I have changed it to a mid-brownish ostrich leg skin strap. And because the Alpinist is so good for me, I have bought the SPB355 too. I have changed the factory strap to the MILTAT Jub and I have to say it is the perfect every day Alpinist for me. The best contrast/visibility, not too much bling, elegant, restrained style/colour dial, steel bracelet.

[@jamalkherry5296]

the sarb017 and strapcode fixes your problems. Trust me i went through the same thing.

[@myselfandpesit]

I felt the same. The green is not enough on the dial. It looks different in the video than in person. Plus, I dislike the cyclops.

[@zsoltprokai7310]

​@@jamalkherry5296 Thank you for your reply, but no. The SARB017 nowadays is just a waaay overpriced timepice. Like the SARB033. The SARB017 has the worst factory strap ever (and without the fast buckle) and for me the lighter dial colour not solved the dark mess problem, just made it a bit lighter overall. I have see the SARB017 in live, for me the cyclops is necessary too. And if you would not pay in the very near future a good sum for the servicing, then do not buy watches with at least 6-7-8 year old movement. My problem are solved, the SPB123 and the SPB355 has good visibility, better than the SPB121 or the SARB017. The SPB123 was cheaper (very good overall used condition), then a used SARB017 in the same condition, the SPB355 (limited, preowned without a scratch) cost me a bit more.

You’re right. The SPB 121 doesn’t make sense on paper, but it all comes together very nicely, and making it a surprisingly very versatile watch as well. I have had mine for a year now and I’ve been able to wear it with everyday, casual clothes or something more formal. Specs are also great, runs much more accurately than Seiko’s published accuracy for the 6R35 movement. Still one of the best watches for its price.
