New Release Seiko 1965 Euro Exclusive LE

[@zosothezephead837]

Well done on being virtually the only reviewer who actually knows how to pronounce Prospex correctly 👍

[@ClickSpringReview]

Really I didn't know that but thank you

[@dadmodswatches]

Seiko has some of the best dials

[@ClickSpringReview]

Yeah this one really has a stand out dial 😍

[@RabbitWatchShop]

I’ve always argued Seiko and GS are the best at dials.

[@ClickSpringReview]

They do make some goods thats for sure

[@joeskeptical4762]

*Especially Grand Seiko models, which have the best dials in watchmaking, at any price.*

[@ClickSpringReview]

@@joeskeptical4762They do have some good ones that’s for sure , but the ones I reviewed some had problems with the hands and the bracelets and clasps are not great

[@JBellman]

Stunning watch!

[@ClickSpringReview]

Yeah it really is the dial is 😍

[@bestboy897]

awesome review that gradient dial is really cool

[@ClickSpringReview]

Thanks 👍🏻

[@1968jpy]

That’s a stunning 🤩 dial 👍🏻💯

[@ClickSpringReview]

It really is, they have nailed it with this one

[@Vox-Populi]

The white seconds hand really adds that extra pop.

[@ClickSpringReview]

Yep I agree with you 👍🏻

[@samnova450]

Gorgeous looking watch.

[@ClickSpringReview]

They may of scored a home run with this one

[@ShadowBend]

That dial color is really nice. I'm not a big fan of the "pin and collar" bracelet adjustment. With my LE Samurai I purchased a bracelet from a company called strapcode which has screws and is a bit beefier. Great review!

[@ClickSpringReview]

I've a few strapcode models, their bracelets are top quality and not to expensive PS thank you

[@chi1057]

Lovely looking watch, and one way of using up the old 62mas cases too 😀 Will you be reviewing the Rado? Looks a nice piece 👌

[@ClickSpringReview]

Yes I will as its simply gorgeous

[@epicv7dayz824]

No,doubting seiko make the best dials and case shapes going around. They really need to up their movement performance. Some run strong and highly accurate, others are all over the shop, especially their amplitudes.

[@ClickSpringReview]

There Chronograph movements are even worse

[@albertsylvester2981]

THE WATCH IS AWESOME THE GRAND SEIKO OR THE SEIKO 5 IS ONE OF THE WATCH AM GONNA ADD TO MY COLLECTION I LIKE THE WATCH THE DIAL IS AWESOME HAVING A FEW SEIKO WATCHES IN YOUR COLLECTION I THINK IS A GREAT THING THANKS FOR THE VIDEO

[@ClickSpringReview]

I'm happy you liked the video and fingers crossed that you get one

[@Hectorsdad]

Nice looking watch. Dial is reminiscent of the Omega Seamaster anniversary colours. I'n not and never have been keen on white straps, although I know you love them. The strap would deffo fit any passing Ogre.

[@ClickSpringReview]

😁😁😁

[@robertlock6041]

Hi Barry, the dial reminds me of the recently introduced Oris diver which you reviewed. This Seiko looks spectacular: you know how I feel about the movements, but it will be ISO 6425 compliant, making it an extremely versatile piece. I'll see if my local Seiko AD is likely to stock it, then perhaps I will be able to check it out. Keep them coming Barry, LG Bob 🍻 🍻🍻

[@ClickSpringReview]

This one looks great matey and being a LE makes its even more appealing. Its worth checking out for sure Bob 👍🏻

[@robertlock6041]

@@ClickSpringReview I do like that dial...

[@ClickSpringReview]

and being a LE also helps

[@robertlock6041]

@@ClickSpringReview On a completely different subject Barry, are you going to show us the new Hanhart Preventor HD 12? Neil at Chronomaster stocks them so it should be easy to get hold of... 🙂🍾🥂

[@ClickSpringReview]

I do need to at some point Bob

[@paulbugoni2846]

Was in Italy last week and was tempted to ask for a look as the watch shop carried it but not on display; that said I don't care for the 6R35 movement. I like the newer updated models and hope the 6R55 movements are better. Time will tell (pun intended). Also the date window should be framed IMHO. That said, a new MM300 was just released with the excellent 8L movement-I will be looking at those.

[@ClickSpringReview]

Honestly there isn't any difference between the 35/55 . The new MM300 looks good but the 8L momement really needs an update how many movements do you know which stall take an hour to change the date . Seiko really needs to up there game

[@sinjinadams2862]

Beautiful dial! I wish they would put it in the Shogun.

[@ClickSpringReview]

Yeah unfortunately the Shogun never gets dials like this

[@stubronstein9932]

Long Island Watch started homaging Seiko, now it looks like Seiko are homaging Long Island Watch 😂

[@ClickSpringReview]

Your not the first to say that ;)

[@fungusfoong9080]

I wonder why Seiko didn't release this with the updated model eg SPB451.

[@ClickSpringReview]

Yeah exactly 🤔

[@jeffreyalbarandorivera8595]

You said that coin edged bezel like that one so easy to purchase and where?😊

[@ClickSpringReview]

Sorry Jeffrey not sure what you mean if you mean the watch its only available in the EU

[@UTOOOOOOOY]

so Seiko made a watch that looks like a Seiko Homage of this model? (Islander northport seafoam)

[@ClickSpringReview]

I prefer the movement in the Islander because it beats at 8 beats per seconds Seiko still only beat at 6

[@swanney75]

Whilst your saving up for that luxury piece you always wanted (Damasko in my case-or Sinn, not decided) Seiko release something that’s very cool and you think “ oooooh……ok - I’ll buy this as I have the money and it won’t make THAT big of a dent in my savings, I’ll just start again…..” it’s why I own 3k worth of Seikos and not a Sinn.

[@ClickSpringReview]

We do need to sort that out Sir 😁😁

[@russellseah2347]

What's the model reference?

[@ClickSpringReview]

Its the Seiko Prospex Limited Edition 1965 Recreation In Gradation Island Blue SPB473J1

[@russellseah2347]

@@ClickSpringReview tks. I thought it was SPB419J1

[@ClickSpringReview]

Thats a US LE and so we don't get that one over on this side of the pond which do you prefer

[@SaSpursFan]

If it is newer model then I wonder why they are using the same older 65’ case style?

[@ClickSpringReview]

If its not broke don't fix it I guess

[@russellseah2347]

Aside from the dial, everything else is the same as the SPB143?

[@ClickSpringReview]

Yep but look how the dial transforms it this, thats the hole point of a LE model. They normally do something like this to shift the last out of watches, swap the dial with something cool and add a silicone strap and you have a LE

[@SaSpursFan]

@@ClickSpringReview interesting...makes more sense now....noticed the bezel is coated also

[@cheddargriffingriffin9452]

No signed crown 🤦🤷🏼‍♂️

[@ClickSpringReview]

Many Seiko Fans don't like them signed to be fair

[@Timetrends-n5t]

Dislike the shiny wide bezel. Try again Seeko

[@ClickSpringReview]

I'm guessing you're not a diver watch fan ?

[@Timetrends-n5t]

@@ClickSpringReview Sure am, just don´t like shiny bezels

[@ClickSpringReview]

I find most people like ceramic bezels and they are normally shiny

[@vktravellog1242]

Is that a fake? Nothing lines up in a real seiko 😂😂😂😂

[@ClickSpringReview]

LOL you may have a point there 🙃

[@jeffreyalbarandorivera9750]

Unfortunately the details in the caseback is so disappointing.

[@ClickSpringReview]

Why ? its the standard Seiko caseback , what details did you want ?
