This one was a bit of a surprise. I got one of the new 40mm Seiko 5s out of curiosity. Yet it wound up renewing my faith in Seiko. That they still have what it takes to create a great affordable everyday watch. So this is definitely one to check out, as it may be the best affordable sport watch out there right now.
The idea behind it is a little strange, as it's a smaller version of the SKX or the new 5KXs. All done up with a dressy facelift. Which is why some are starting to call it the Dress-KX. Although no matter how odd that may sound, this one is pretty good. Reference SRPE61 / SRPE61k1 / SRPE61j1 .

[@jackprichard6780]

I used to be a scuba instructor. I'm getting one of these. Divers dive with dive computers. They are ugly and when you get out you soak it in fresh water and put it away. I wouldn't trust my life to a watch. Nobody goes down 100 just on air. You get nitrogen narcocis around 60 and you are risking O2 tox further down. If it's fine for swimming, it's fine. I love this thing because it reflects that I used to dive but life moves on and this is a practical, beautiful watch.

[@edf2953]

I enjoy your reviews, from the content, to your assessment of the build quality, style, etc. I totally agree with you as to how beautiful this Seiko 40 mm 5KX with this grey dial looks.

[@AndrewPullens]

I love mine! I too think the gray is a real stunner. I immediately swapped the NATO strap for a nice soft black Berfine calf leather band. I have a few Seikos and you're right about accuracy. It's a crap shoot. This one runs just a little fast. I found a great deal on mine, but it's been out a year already. I've found if I'm patient with Seikos, I can find them around 50% below retail.

[@Bonpu]

Wonderful review, mesmerizing voiceover and awesome photography as always. On that crown issue: I don't need it signed because I'm already sure it's a Seiko by looking at the dial. I also don't need it screw down because I can easily wind and adjust it that way and there is no point of failure or wear like a thread. I like it exactly as it is - just like the rest of the watch - instant classic! I also don't understand how people consider this a downgraded SKX since it has nothing in common with it except the basic case shape and the dial layout. To me it is a far better everyday watch in every regard.

[@JaradPetroske]

[@finophile]

Nice review, as it happens I really quite like this watch, it reminds me of the older Sports 100 Series (of which I still have mine from 1982 and its still running). I like the faces of divers but don't normally need the timer bezel (strangely few seem to know how to use them properly anyway). Its classy and elegant. I'll be buying one when the prices go a little lower.

[@finophile]

Hi well my watch arrived and I am pleased to report that its excellent. I'm pleased also with the NATO (first time to use one) and its the only watch I've used that feels comfortable on while typing. So thanks for your review that led me to this watch, I've shared your review on my blog (something I don't normally do) and I hope that brings you a few more subscribers. Best Wishes

[@SecondHourWatches]

Yep, I am absolutely obsessed with these, and hope to get the 57, with the gold hands and markers. Beautiful piece and popping a sapphire crystal in it is just going to make it pop. Great review, Shane!

[@dparis2172]

Of course the sapphire will be more scratch resistant, but are you talking about a domed piece of sapphire? Otherwise, I wouldn't expect it to "pop" more than what already comes with the watch. Hardlex gets a bad rap, but I appreciate its clarity over sapphire. Sapphire is usually overkill on most affordable watches, but that's just my opinion.

[@RelativeTime]

I was tempted by the Gilt one too, but eventually the grey dial won me over. How did the enamel dials for the Gin Clear come out?

[@SecondHourWatches]

@@RelativeTime they look absolutely stunning. I've been posting shots on instagram. Will DM you some

Enjoyed the review and a very good point on the plain and non screw-down crown. I just found your review after getting the SBSA041 and SBSA061 (JDM references) for myself. I do plan to mod the glass to sapphire so it would have been easier if it is also a screwed down bezel.

If these happen to go on sale during the holidays (like the 42mm 5kxs did last year) I'll pick up a second one. Maybe blue or the gilt.

[@zHumanfactor]

"For your consideration..." :). Nice review, I really like this colorway and that stainless steel bezel. Classic styling. A very interesting and tempting offering.

[@tomdorazio681]

I’ve been searching for weeks for a “one watch” pick for everyday. I tried one of these on locally and felt it small in comparison to the seiko samurai I had on my wrist that day. As a few weeks have passed I’ve come to the realization the samurai is large and that this srpe will be perfect. I’m going to try to stop in tomorrow and pick up the one I tried on. They have a 30% off sale going right now for dads and grads so I’m taking that as a sign. Also thanks for the excellent videos! Top rate shots, editing, and voiceover. Good job man. You’ve earned another subscriber.

[@RelativeTime]

Thanks and welcome to the channel. I still love this watch, and I hope you will too. I've never tried the Samurai, but I think this one would be better for most days. I also recently bought a nice bracelet for mine. kzbin.info/www/bejne/q6e9o2WdrtyHlck

[@tomdorazio681]

@@RelativeTime that jubilee looks great on there but I’m really not much of a bracelet guy in practice. It’ll likely live most of its life on a nato like my other watches. I’d like to pick up my first decent leather strap for it though since it definitely looks great on leather. Maybe also a sail cloth strap with rubber on the inside for beach/pool wear. A silicone nato might be a possibility as well. I like how you show it on so many different straps in both videos. It looks great on everything.

[@patricj951]

I am new into watches but already have got several. And I have decided to get this model in the grey dial option. There are already modders who offer it with the mineral glass replaced with sapphire crystal. But I want it with a nice stainless steel or titanium bracelet.

[@catlike1]

I have the blue dial one with bracelet and love it. Very flexible everyday watch. It can wear sporty or more dressy depending on the strap. Actually I think the bracelet and nato strap versions cost the same--$275 MSRP--and it's the two-tone watches that cost an extra $50. So, I think the bracelet version is a better value. I got it for around $230 from a dealer (15%) which i think is a terrific price. It's similar in design and concept to the Black Bay 36 (but naturally larger).

[@gregderichsweiler8952]

I put a Pilot Bezel on my SRPD with the Beige dial and Milanese bracelet and it makes a great casual/dress watch.

[@brockphilips1189]

[@Conundrum191]

I like it! Not really a fan of dress watches, but do need to get one at some point. This seems like the perfect hybrid, and could be quite dressy on the right leather strap.

[@midwestgent9618]

The first of the new series to make me look up and pay attention. Up until now I've been quite happy just to ignore them. Dropping the bezel is a great move as it probably saves cost for them. For us, it gives us something new that puts out vibes of Explorer or Black Bay for 36. With it being a 5, the day-date complication is not going anywhere but I'm fully expecting the mod part guys (looking at you Yobokies, nakomi, dagaz et al.) to bring us a new no date dial very soon.

[@TheFffaaaak]

Excellent review, thank you for helping me decide on the choice, you are the best)

[@umutaydogdu1502]

I totally agree with your both positives and negatives about the watch. I was planning to purchase the black dial with golden hands and markers version but i found my invicta 1953 which has much better looking than the Seiko, same movement etc. also has some cons(like almost 14mm thickness, weak lume and being a homage) but half price of the seiko👍

Fantastic genre-crossing redesign that does a whole lot more right than wrong. Very happy with my SRPE53 in blue sunburst. Loving it on a shark mesh. Also had the SRPE57 “gilt” black with gold but it wasn’t quite as versatile and lacked a sunburst effect. Looks like a 61 may be in my future... :)

But I'm having second thoughts with it since i really love my skx . I even thought about buying another skx and mod it to be dressy. Then i recalled about the dresskx. exactly the dressy skx i need.

[@troynasello2085]

Mine has "made in japan" as well. Nice bonus. Also, I like the unsigned crown. It would be cool to have the presage type "S" crown, but I really really like the fine radial brushing on the crown end. It looks great, better than polished. Thanks for another awesome review! Also, I got the same gray dial but on a bracelet. The bezel is polished with the brushing in the middle, the opposite of the bezel on yours. Kinda wish I got the brushed, but I really wanted the bracelet. Even though it's folded steel, hollow end links and pressed clasp, it looks great & is super comfortable.

[@TravisSenior09]

Crazy?! Mine does not have ”made in japan” on the dial...maybe a different lot of production? My first automatic and love the watch 💚

Thanks for the video. I've been searching day and night for a casual automatic, with a day/date function, exhibition case-back, and brushed finish. The links provided have given myself much needed price options, as searching by model number alone has yielded little options (Only the green SRPE65 and blacked-out SRPE69 are on amazon.ca atm), The grey SRPE61 is the most attractive to me, although the blue SRPE63 is a CLOSE second. This may be my option, if only I can get my hands on a brand-new SRP709, it hits my criteria+1, due to the arabic numerals.

I ordered an SRPE60 for my step father for Christmas. A couple of days ago, I put it on my time grapher. Other than a 0.6 beat error, it's literally running zero seconds per day! I was beside myself considering my track record with my other two Seikos, which I had to regulate myself. That being said, I am really impressed with the look and feel of the SRPE60 and am looking at getting an SRPE61 for myself. That grey sunburst dial is stunning.

[@flip97gt]

@@RelativeTime Uh, not digging the bracelet lol! One of the spring bars came unseated while I was pulling it out of the box to check the movement. I thought I had it fixed and back in place. It popped out again. After some doing, I managed to get the problematic spring bar to pop in place on the case lug. They're stamped end links, so I'm sure the tolerances are off. I'm not a bracelet guy myself. When Pete takes it to the jeweler to have it sized, I'll have him make sure the jeweler checks the spring bars. He's a gold tone watch kinda guy and likes bracelets. In Vietnam, he wore a two tone Seiko Sportsmatic 5.

I think the 'DressKX' nickname is well suited for this line of watches. It pays tribute to the fact that this watch after all is a derivatative of the 5KX, albeit a good one. It's catchy and it'll probably become universal among watch collectors.

[@thehooch-man2657]

Good video. The gray is the best of the bunch.

[@Comalv]

have the other gray one (67K1) with the brushed case face/bezel instead of mirror finish and I think it's even slightly dressier. It's become my everyday watch (fighting for the spot with the Orient Kamasu which I also love to wear on a regular basis). Not sure if I'll also get a compass-less Alpinist (that should get released in a couple of weeks) as it's probably going to feel very similar to this

[@sk98ification]

I have the silver green 5kx , which I've enjoyed, but the diving bezel doesn't make sense to me considering the 100m water resistance. These new dress-KXs fix that problem by shrinking it to a 40mm and getting rid of the bezel. I would honestly switch my 5kx for this silver shadow one any day of the week.
