Seiko just make the best looking watches. Their dials and cases are the best.

[@vimeto21]

Yes. The buckle done that way is the right way. Is much more ergonomic to take off and on because the clasp is closest to the right hand. Easier access.

[@EscapementWatch]

OLD Video That I just could never Release as new Releases and other Watches always got priority. This is was before I started doing measurements with animations lol. feels like ages ago! but anyways hope you all enjoy this wonderful STUNNER! wish I still had it now with my better equipment to do a better review. -falling 😁👍

[@silvericepeak]

Just came across your channel a few videos ago, amd love what you do! Gorgeous watch! But I prefer the Red 12 O'clock with Blue numerals variant. Keep it up, Titan!

[@michaelfierman3256]

It still looked really good

[@gilean6179]

saw this in the flesh Dec 2022...what a beauty. Thank you for this video.

[@scottlauren3145]

You got the almighty Sarbs, 033 and 035. Those are keepers for life...for sure.

[@vintageswiss9096]

I wanted a seiko for the collection, so I bought an SPB267 and I love it. Kinda chunky, but the dial is so beautiful, I'll deal with it.

[@DinoAranda]

This will be my next seiko

[@cleftoftherock6797]

I like this watch. Japanese Craftsmanship is always amazing.

[@michaelfierman3256]

That is a real beauty. So elegant- that porcelain is amazing. Love learning things like the “watch makers IIII” . Btw. I loved the white diver in the last episode, but since I always watch your videos on my tv, I forgot to go to my phone and leave a comment. ( but a 👍🏻as always )

[@EscapementWatch]

Thank you very much!

[@nasiruddin-pj8jt]

beautiful clean and most attractive dial just light upon light 🖐❤️❤️❤️

[@ashleymalamute]

This would be on my wrist right now if it had arabic numerals on the dial. Nice watch 👍

[@MrNPJM]

Really can’t decide between this and the SPB319J1. Not sure if the dial on this is just too busy for a dress watch. Plus the blue leather strap seems a bit much, but then I’ve never seen it in the flesh!

[@simonandersen7942]

Absolutely amazing looking watch. The non limited versions are great as well. Might really have to get one at some point!

[@EscapementWatch]

You should!

[@galatians22122]

I have one New Full Kit $1700 Let me know if you are interested, thanks Tim

[@Junior3z]

Beautiful watch. Thick enough though.

[@walterlee4796]

Gorgeous, a real beauty

[@EscapementWatch]

It really is!

[@sopapillas6398]

I put deployant buckles on all my straps and always flip the tail side up to 12 & buckle side down to 6. Feels more natural as the buckle then opens/closes like a metal bracelet.

[@EscapementWatch]

Yeah I like to put it the Seiko way now even normal straps hehehe

[@Orieus]

It's Stunning! Awesome review man!

[@EscapementWatch]

Glad you liked it

[@kikomachine8276]

What a beauty! Awesome video again FT. 👍😁

[@EscapementWatch]

Thanks again!

[@Julian-rt9qs]

I started my watch journey just a few months ago. My fiance bought me a Seiko chronograph 8T67 for christmas and since then, I've bought 3 more Seikos. I fully intend to add a bunch more Seiko watches to my collection and the Presage line is likely where my next purchase will be. I love those porcelain and enamel dials. That said, can you do a review on the new 140th anniversary Astron SSH083? That is currently my 'holy grail' watch and I'm constantly wrestling with what my next watch will be...I commented on one of your videos that I had my eye on the SBDL083, and here I mentioned I want one of the Presage watches and the Cherry Blossom Astron. Lol what a life.

[@EscapementWatch]

Appreciate the support. Thanks for watching. 😁 I'm trying to get astron on the channel! but no promises.

[@Julian-rt9qs]

@@EscapementWatch No promises needed, I appreciate the work you do in your videos and your taking the time to respond to us viewers. Maybe if I get mine before you can do a review I'll let you borrow it ;)

[@robhaver8704]

Put a watch on your wrist and just look at the watch... When you put on any wristwatch other than a seiko, you have to either twist your wrist in an unnatural position, or you pull the watch towards you. Either way is not a good sign of craftman-ship or direct approval. Then, just change the position of the straps and...voilá, your watch will be in the perfect position for watching the time-piece, without strange movements of your wrist or any other additional motions. When on a motorbicycle your watch must be immidiately visible when you look at it. Try it out and you'll know! Thanks for the review. A work of art, and i am focusing on the dial itself!

[@MaskulineMale]

Got mine today 👍🏼

[@mell3109]

If this was 38mm and 10mm high it would be sensational.

[@martin4374]

Seiko is right when they put their deployants like that. Orient does it too. I do it whenever I have a "swing arm" deployant. It sits better on the bottom of the wrist, and it's ergonomically easier to feed the end into the keepers.

[@watchesinthewild6264]

Have the the red XII version - just epic

[@aceaustralian]

Great video, thank you. I appreciate it.

[@AliasEveWatches]

Security Authorized Resident Benefit 🤣 This porcelain dial is beautiful, but when I tried it on, it was too big. 💔 I guess ill just admire it from afar.

[@BigMongo823]

Where can I find this watch in the nyc tri-state area?

[@jeffreygoss8109]

Is this the same colors on the spb293?

[@canonyeo4286]

Yes, humour is a good way to begin. I have both the classic 033 and 035. Keepers. I have seen this watch in person. Very nice dial. I doubt the hands are heated blue. They're like those in my enamelled dial. Don't know how they are made. I have 3 enamelled dials and 3 urushi lacquer. I like the urushi lacquer a lot. Would love to see the porcelain dial on the 6L35.

[@EscapementWatch]

AMAZING! yes that would be a winner!

[@jeremyneilsen4989]

Nice review! What’s your opinion on the spb393 the lacquer white dial?

[@wed265]

The Buckle should be on the other side of the watch. You are correct

[@woonfaseng8737]

i think there is a newer version without Power service and a centre depression ring presage porcelain. that one could be abit thinner...

[@EscapementWatch]

what reference number is the new one?

[@Sometimes_I_Growl]

Intro was hilarious

[@ZachBie]

Seiko is really unique in that they do Enamel and Porcelain at reasonable prices. I wish that they did some Grand Seikos in enamel. I got to look at this model and some enamel watches when I lived in Japan. I personally found the porcelain dials to be a bit of a let down in person and a bit dull. The white enamel that they do on the other hand is amazing! There is no comparison side-by-side. I can understand the draw to porcelain and it’s historical importance in Japan and Asia, but I would give this watch a pass. Great review though! Also apparently the tail of the watch strap when worn in the typical Western style - pointing away from you - is seen as aggressive - in Japanese culture. I was told that you never point at anyone with your finger. So maybe that’s the thought behind it?

[@santigualberto]

it was the complete opposite for me.. the arita porcelain blew the enamel one out of the water when i compared them side by side.. it was just night and day

[@KCTimeShare]

Great review! I think the diver looks a bit smaller because of the bezel so the dial itself is smaller despite having the same case size. This makes the watch looks a bit smaller.

[@valengreymoon5623]

Absolutely beautiful dial, except.....for that power reserve indicator killing the symmetry. Also, that sub dial really should have been for running seconds, to really push the retro look.

[@nevillegrimshaw7758]

I totally agree 👍

[@nen_star]

I love the dial but they are to thick for me

[@eldalyeffendi6171]

would this dial suit a 170 mm wrest or too big, thanks all watch lovers

[@speedzero7478]

I wish all Seikos went to 28,000 beat rate, it looks more pleasant.

[@jameshoward9700]

Ha ha, that intro seemed familiar! And nicely filmed! That porcelain is hard to capture. Beautiful watch, but I think they're a bit big for a dress watch - 38 would be super classy. Also, I think they're over-branded. Seiko logo has got bigger and I don't see the need for the Presage (like Prospex) sub-brand. The wrong way for a deployant is deffinatly the right way! Sits better on the bottom of your wrist, well for me anyway.

[@EscapementWatch]

Thanks for watching!

[@rafaelalbarracin9278]

Muy buenos tus videos como siempre. Sería interesante cuando realizas la reseña de un reloj que pudieras nombrar posibles competidores de otras marcas o los que mas se acerquen. Saludos 👍🎄

[@Mpx7]

what watch is he wearing? i dont find the colour of the dial anywhere

[@EscapementWatch]

spb149j1

[@dineshanblazahan9843]

Dude we r in same boat :) all watch lovers face this issue

[@pianothatilove]

Nice and informative content! This watch looks incredibly feminine in real life,a lot because of the blue strap and the blue colored hour indices

[@woonfaseng8737]

dress watch ideally should max out at 39mm , best 38mm to 32mm or so ...dress watch suppose should never be so big or thick.

[@cokchops_5231]

Loved the intro. We can all relate. Lol

[@EscapementWatch]

Yes we can

[@佐藤亮介-l6t]

有田焼ダイヤルをINSANEと言ったコメントがありましたが、ほんとうによいものはその可能性を秘めていると思います✨

[@EscapementWatch]

Sou desu ne

[@jonandresen1483]

Nice video. Love mine. It's on a Staib mesh and looks flash. The movement stripes are known as Tokyo stripes. Geneva stripes don't mean much outside of Geneva ha ha. Hands are not heat blued. Can tell by the appearance.

[@EscapementWatch]

Thanks for sharing!

[@Goob2112]

Beautiful watch, but way to thick. I’ve owned it twice and sold it twice, I wanted to love this so badly but just couldn’t get past how thick it is. I hope they come out with a thinner porcelain watch with subdials, I’ll be all over it.

[@EscapementWatch]

I've done that before as well haha.

[@bouncyboi9488]

It’s the movement that makes it really thick I have the “shippo” version of this watch and it’s also really thick

[@billcore6295]

I wish I only had $500.00 charges...lol Lol.... Your wife is a good sport

[@nbrikha]

Did he sell them? Or still available?

[@EscapementWatch]

[@Mr-Merchant.]

Love the dial, hands and general design BUT it's to thick and large, it needs to be 38mm / 10mm. Pushing £2k you can get alot of other options.

[@Stony13]

Damn I want one

[@goodboyringo9716]

Seiko SRQ023 ( 8R48A ) better in my opinion for about the same money.

[@NamPhan-6689]

Bao nhiêu tiền Việt Nam! Vậy

[@IcejjfishTbone]

The strap kind of turns my off because it is blue.

[@EscapementWatch]

Yea I can see that. But it does match the dial markers

[@Libertà_sulla_vita]

Of course it makes sense. When is the government not digging in our pockets? 💸

[@joelstatosky1817]

In the Seiko world 2,000 watches is almost nothing. last time I check grand Seiko has larger production for their limited edition watch lol.

[@EscapementWatch]

so true!

[@jamoyme4475]

nice intro. :)

[@EscapementWatch]

Glad you like it

[@markotoole7937]

I was interested in this watch until I realised the thickness 😬

[@jereseilo2350]

It's pretty thick for dress watch :/ My main turn off for that watch, other than that a beautiful watch I would've bought. But since it a bit thick imo to wear with a suit I might not buy it.

[@EscapementWatch]

Fair enough!

[@jereseilo2350]

@@EscapementWatch It’s a beautiful piece and I like the look a lot but my rather small 6.5” wrist I’d like it to be thinner for a dress watch use:)

[@woonfaseng8737]

only problem....looks too freaking THICK!!!

[@akapantsusenpai181]

I could be wrong, but I think that is real gator leather whereas the strap that comes with the Alpinist is just embossed gator calf skin leather.

[@EscapementWatch]

feels like it! yes the alpinist one is def fake.

[@mychalharris]

LoL.... You don't want it to weigh you down. Phraseology of Apple watch wearers.

[@brianhsin678]

i think these middle end seikos are overpriced.
