Seiko definitely shares that X factor that Rolex has in abundance: no matter their foibles, they're always one amazing piece away from us forgiving everything.

[@matthewpilling4828]

Got mine yesterday £640. Absolutely bargain and what a watch. Couldn't be happier. Get it on offer and it's justified purchase. Absolutely brilliant watch.

[@marknraju]

Where from? Great deal. Best I've seen is £756.

[@matthewpilling4828]

Francis and Gaye.. keep checking online prices as they go up and down

[@Deknorge]

I got mine Willard version for 750

[@junnzbarquilla5567]

I owned a steelmaster 200 and Blue MM300…. But Wow these Black series MM200 looks amazing and will blend in to my Seiko collection 😍 Loved your channel btw 🙏

[@mrcasioak1521]

I love mine! I put it on a black Nick Mankey strap, and it is going strong in my rotation. It is so visible, and comfortable!

[@EscapementWatch]

awesome thanks for sharing!

The clarity and sharpness of your video work is exceptional. Great vid. I have this watch. Greetings from Scotland.

[@EscapementWatch]

Glad you enjoyed it!

Black Matters!!! Love ❤️ them ⏱⏰

[@fohhee]

Got mine for £648, 40% discount from £1080. Run abit fast when dial up, but after DIY demagnetiz, I able to keep it +3sec per day.

[@EscapementWatch]

great deal!!!!

[@georgiaguardian4696]

Wow, this looks great and special. The colors are unconventional for me but they look good and “pro”.

[@bigdan2828ify]

Big fan of these black series, I've had my spb255j1 for over a month now and absolutely love it, so I'm sure this one is awesome...

[@emoroje]

How was the scratches so far? Does it scratch easily?

[@erikjensen6503]

Yes I bought it last night! Love it so far

[@stevemoreno6241]

That's a good looking watch. I don't own any seiko pieces but this one is tempting.

[@denis888red]

I own the MM200 in green and have to say that it's a great little watch. Outweighs both Submariner and Seamaster on a steel strap mind. I don't mind a heavy watch but it is excessively so. Other than that however, it's a super little piece that I would recommend.

[@EscapementWatch]

Thanks for sharing!

[@timschwarze1739]

I own the same SPB207 and never had problems with the weight. Even though I have quite slender wrists. I can only recommend the MM200, no complaints!

[@denis888red]

@@timschwarze1739 Yeah, perhaps some might not notice it, though and for example, a Rolex Submariner comes in at 153. An MM200 is 186...

[@mclaughlinja1995]

God I love this brand. No, they’re not perfect, but they do so much so well.

[@geramelendez4931]

Beautiful Seiko watch 😍

[@EscapementWatch]

Agreed!

[@victorprasetyooetomo7884]

great video. great review . and yes the spb255j1 is very comfortable. love the orange black combination.

[@emoroje]

Got mine today in our local dealer. Bought it brand new. But damn, after 10mins of walking, +25 seconds already.

[@wardog5537]

Damn! Lol

[@laca7676]

Do you happen to know the name or the type of the strap? Looks great.

[@devilgames2217]

So tempted to buy this watch.

[@pablogonzalez8304]

I do love Seiko and I do have the SPB087 but at that price you get a nice MIDO Ocean Star Tribute with a much better movement so...

[@d2rufffalco459]

Yes I have the ocean star 600 chronometer with a Si hair spring for $1200 I will never buy a seiko luck of the draw unregulated 6r3xx watch they look nice but not for what you get anymore. Mido is the way to go if you want Great heritage awesome movement and accuracy out the box.

[@Tdr-jv2nc]

Rubber strap is so comfortable on this

[@Mark-sd7fc]

One man’s grail is another man’s beater LOL

[@EscapementWatch]

That is very true

[@jameshoward9700]

Dude, the macro is getting even better! I think this is the best looker of the series. Obviously not as well finished as the Uemura, but the black suits the MM2 case better IMO. Now, I can't let the knockoff Alibaba 'X' go uncriticised (there!), but that dial is very good otherwise, as are those hands. They've done those pressed indices very well. All in (if you get a good movement, or quickly/easily regulate it), that is a LOT of watch for the money, especially if you get a bit of Seiko discount love!

[@ellmusic769]

It is very comfortable.

[@andyholton7959]

Wot can I say? It’s a seiko so I love it 🤙🏻

[@serivina_freiheitskampfer1936]

Excelent colour. 👍

[@Davyjones5454]

There will be scratches on the coating after some time. And you can’t Polish it away.

[@rubensanmaurodelbosqur1950]

Excelente video 👏 👏

[@izuanali3750]

Good review. Love it ❤

[@EscapementWatch]

Thank you! 🤗

[@stake6957]

Can the strap be bought separately?

[@Nightfury0695]

Yes, you can get them from Seiko Dealers.

[@dimitriosstamadianos54]

How much

[@EscapementWatch]

1200usd

[@hawot4375]

Wow! I love it

[@Buffalohump77]

Any info on what they use for a coating?

[@EscapementWatch]

DLC

[@goo4tube]

Careful when buying this Black Series as Seiko has dropped the ball yet again with its QC even with these so called limited editions. I purchased my SPB255 last week online and upon receiving it immediately noticed that the bezel does not line up properly at 12 o'clock. Also the hour hand only lines up with the hour markers at past 5 mins. This is totally crap QC from Seiko and will be my last

[@goo4tube]

Wish I could add a photo comment here to show the issues I had with this model.

[@EscapementWatch]

Thats no good but you can return to your Seiko AD and use the warranty. They will fix it.

[@Tartandagger]

The 6r35 movement is a disaster ,I bought this watch ,have to reset it every 2 days ,thank fk i never paid the full price £1080 .Great looking watch but as an accurate time piece forget it its piss poor, save your hard earned cash

[@zman8340]

Seiko does limited editions ?

[@EscapementWatch]

On occasion.

[@zman8340]

@@EscapementWatchright !

[@TheCdM1981]

But that’s not a cushion case in the SPB255.

[@EscapementWatch]

Yeah not a traditional cushion case but anytime Seiko removes a portion of the mid-case on the lower hemisphere of the case it feels like a cushion case on the wrist. In fact this one is more comfortable then all the others.

[@msbrownbeast]

The black finish is anodized metal? The black color would wear off (starting at the stress points) and make the watch look like crap.

[@kelvintey8142]

What’s the Price ?

[@AmcoAutoGlass]

sweeeeetnessss

[@gregalonzo747]

Limited edition???? LMAO!

[@EscapementWatch]

SRPG47 Seiko 5 had 11,000 units limited edition and we still get people asking for it and trying to find one is very hard.

[@gregalonzo747]

@@EscapementWatch, I guess it is a matter of taste 😉

[@EscapementWatch]

Yeah sometimes they are big hits and the limited edition factor really comes into play. Most of the time because 99% are limited it doesn't

[@Buffalohump77]

There are 8 billion people on the planet, so 5,000 is indeed limited!
