A REAL Tool Watch. Seiko Arnie (Safarnie SNJ029)

[@EscapementWatch]

Check out my FAV TUNA Seiko the DARK SNE577 kzbin.info/www/bejne/rYSkgIWDad5sotk -Falling

[@JedeyeCoffee]

Predator. Not Alien (that’ll be the Seiko Ripley/Giugiaro). But damn do I want to own one in OG tactical black.

[@alastairheptonstall7982]

That was my first thought! It turns out there was a variant of this in Aliens, the 556-5050 (known as the Burke)

[@tezzanewton]

I got this one a couple of months ago. It’s currently on a red nato and looks sensational.

[@user-oi2jx4bx8z]

Are y happy with the readability at nicht?

[@SideQuestStijn]

It has a backlight on the digital portion

[@halfpastblog]

This is my favorite Arnie colour way.

[@EscapementWatch]

right on!

[@ProfessorPesca]

The tuna case is not personally my cup of tea, but I’m so glad watches like this exist, what fun.

[@hughming]

There is a Casio analog digital dive watch under Waveceptor line. I believe it is Wva-360 or wva-320.Aesthetically I think the Casio diver is better than Seiko arnie

[@Baily_Tube]

I'm actually looking at this on eBay right now. Came to KZbin for a review. It's freaking cool!

[@choond]

Clear and precise review. Awesome job.

[@EscapementWatch]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@MentalPawn]

[@mchoch4576]

[@EscapementWatch]

Right on!

[@fitboy500]

I was hope it come with sapphire crystal for that price but she is very pretty in the wrist I test it and put it in my wishlist 😋🥰🤷‍♂️♥️🧐

[@rubensanmaurodelbosqur1950]

Excelente Reloj ⌚ Seiko.👏👏🤩🤩

[@charlesboley6533]

Just bought one

[@ristic1]

Nice piece but not a fan of that cost. I’d go for a mudmaster

[@shinraorg]

oh man, if that bezel was lumed

[@TJCoolTV]

does this one show depth on the digital display ?

[@EscapementWatch]

no the new one does. I'm filming it right now.

[@TJCoolTV]

@@EscapementWatch Oh Okay ! Thx ! I really love the water depth addition. Super cool feature

[@John_Smith2302]

I was contemplating an 'Arnie' but, I went for a GG-B100 G-Shock Mudmaster with Bluetooth connectivity. Great watch though.

[@EscapementWatch]

Good choice!

[@kriss2452]

Nice one. It's a shame the GG-B100 is not a tough solar, but what a gorgeous G-Shock it is !

[@AmcoAutoGlass]

VERY NICE

[@EscapementWatch]

So nice

[@TheBadGuy1974]

huh was Arnie in Alien??

[@Andrew.W75]

Nope, I first Arnie film with the original in was Commando I believe

[@j.dieason7527]

Lol according to this guy he was.

[@PepeDeezNutz]

No

[@varghejo]

Great looking watch, 47mm x 50mm is too big for me though. A smaller version, maybe, 43mm x 46mm would be perfect.

[@EscapementWatch]

Fair enough! but you would be surprised how well they wear. The lugs are so small they disappear so it feels like a 47x47 on the wrist. Plus the bezel measurement is around 40mm so visually watch looks smaller too. On video it looks larger.

[@treedeblue]

How is the original 1980’s watch powered

[@JoeDirt-ok2hm]

Battery

[@gewglesux]

about $1k USD?

[@brianbuchert6382]

Creamy lume?lol😊

[@brianbuchert6382]

But I did enjoy your video,but creamy is a texture not a function, but the lume is sweet😊

[@PepeDeezNutz]

Arnold was never in Aliens

[@garyfranklin7747]

Mediocre tool watch. I have it, plus its mini-Arnie predecessor. No electronic countdown timer, altho one can use the bezel as a substitute. The stopwatch can't be used in conjunction with the backlight, because both functions activated by same button. If the stopwatch is running and one pushes the backlight button, the stopwatch stops. The red seconds hand very difficult to read in low light or no light due to the watch faces dark color. Watch should have used a mostly white seconds hand, like that used in the SNJ25. Also should have put a lumed doohickey on the other end of the seconds hand (like done on the Seiko Sumo, which I also own).

[@Takeo2011]

Those rings are pure Garbage!! Seiko replaced the watch due to the rubber rings falling apart under warranty. It happened a second time Seiko told me not covered cause those orange rings where paint. No more Seiko for me.

[@EscapementWatch]

oh damn really!!! First I've heard of this issue and it happened twice! That's terrible. But thanks for sharing real life usage always good to see long term feedbacks. And yes I believe the orange is just a color to show you "do not dive" and the gasket is inside the crown. Strange system.

[@brianbuchert1521]

Did you unscrew/ screw it in a lot? After initial setting I probably won’t mess with those too much

[@jebstuart3]

HEY!! I'M THE 271st "LIKE"!!!!!!
