The SNKL23 was my first automatic watch, my wife bought it for me for our wedding when we didn’t have much money. Even though my collection has grown considerably with much more expensive watches it’s still my favorite and most special. Truly is an incredible watch, even though I might be biased due to sentimental value.

The SUR503 is a very inviting design. Would be cool to get it in a Solar or Auto movement. Seiko pulled off the angular, experimental design without looking like a mall watch.

The SNKL23 truly is a special piece. It is a watch capable of changing somebody’s taste towards watches, it sure did change mine. I discovered with this watch how well smaller case sizes suit me. It is the go to when you don’t know what the day is going to throw at you. All these qualities made me reconsider my future collection choices and start saving for a GS SBGX261.

I've been wearing an SRPJ85. It's a 24 hour dial field watch, almost identical to the SRPG27 but with a smaller 36mm case. They seem to making a 36mm variant of the Aviator style field watch as well. I like it, if it was lost or stolen I'd buy another.

"better low light performance" is the most understated description the lume of the SNZG. This watch is one of the best lumed watches on the planet - period. And was the best lumed watch in my collection, regardless of price, style or origin, no watch i had or have comes even close to the SNZG lume.

After nearly two years without any Seikos, I got me a nice deal on Presage Cocktail Time - Negroni a few weeks back (got it for 240€ brand new!) and remembered why I used to like Seiko so much... I still refuse to buy their limited edition, over-inflated nonsense, but there is a reason why they were the 'gateway drug' for so many...

Great video and assortment if nice Seiko. My humble Seiko „collection in the collection“ consists of 4 models. First: Seiko 5 SNXS81 where I changed movement (to NH36), crystal to sapphire and the bracelet to a proper j style bracelet. Second: brown dial SNXA13. Also here I am going with a nice aftermarket j style bracelet. Third: SNK355 like the one you showed here only the silver version. Fourth: Maybe the nicest, my green globe dial SNK665. Such a nice watch. Well a gold/champagne, choclate brown, white silver and jade green dial sitting side by side. Looks just awesome.

Hot take: Seiko would be much more appealing if they drastically reduced the number of models. Love or hate Rolex, everyone knows what a Daytona is or a Skydweller or a Submariner. Nobody has the slightest idea what 99% of the random Seiko reference numbers are; many of the nicer models are JDM-only (or otherwise artificially geofenced); and (one presumes) producing a smaller number of SKUs would allow proper QA (e.g., chapter-ring alignment).

@@younusimam-thesalamproject6340 You'd do well to remember that if it wasn't for Seiko, and to a lesser extent Citizen (Miyota) these brands would be non existent outside of China. Why are they so cheap? Because they have no R&D overheads, retail outlets and advertising costs, and they are assembled by what is effectively slave labour, people earning in a day what we pay for a coffee in a Costa. They basically rip off the designs of others. I see them as little more than fakes
