[@jipree.jipreealejandro8407]

Had it on my wrist for 2 weeks now.. such a beauty...

[@Numb3r_47]

Great review! Thanks!

[@kikomachine8276]

Just got mine a couple of days ago... Its pure class I love it.

[@WatchClicker]

Congrats!

[@theguardian3431]

Great no nonsense review. I recently got this piece and it exceeded my expectations.

[@WatchClicker]

Thank you. Enjoy the watch!

[@nbcuni]

Im glad you touched on their prices creeping up up up.

[@WatchClicker]

I think they have stabilized for now but we will see for how long

[@kubipro5880]

Best watch 2020/2021.👍

[@alextrujillo1613]

I bought a Sarb003 like 4 years ago and I absolutely love it, I’m looking into purchasing my second one and I think I just found it.

[@WatchClicker]

Right on!

[@kamelthorn]

Great video, love the watch. I owned and sold on an SLA017, all due to the irritation of seeing the bezel misaligned, maybe I’ll give this one a try! Keep up the great content.

[@elliottk2518]

Great video! Love your style and editing. New sub!

[@WatchClicker]

Thanks for the sub! I appreciate the support!

[@Zed_Solo_RS]

Don't mind me just watching my 50th video on the next watch I'm gonna buy.

[@SoCalWatchReviews]

Great review man!

[@WatchClicker]

Thanks a ton!

[@itsallrobbish]

Good review, praises it highly, but doesn’t pull any punches. A lovely timepiece, I’d love to get one of these in the next year or so.

[@muffemod]

If I didn't already own an Omega planet ocean seamaster, this would be on my list.

[@sonnyengstrom588]

I own a planet ocean and just got my spb143. you can have both you know (;

[@neoretrophoto9198]

This and a Sarb is really all an urban gentry needs

[@bwcastillo]

I agree but I sold my 033 to buy this . . . 😔

[@neoretrophoto9198]

@@bwcastillo I haven’t worn my 033 since buying this one - but stand by my comment. I would like a Pelagos. The new silver black bay looks almost like this SPB143

[@danielt.muller7009]

I agree. Great watch.

[@WatchClicker]

Thanks Dan!

[@michaelsigman8942]

I love the intro music!

[@pedrofreire7874]

Great review.

[@WatchClicker]

Glad you enjoyed it

[@PūkaHeadMan]

Excellent review!

[@WatchClicker]

Thank you kindly!

[@VinnyTheCuz]

Great video review!

[@ryanrabe7184]

I can afford a rolex submariner but i cant afford to dive it under salty water!!! But this one is a perfect all around watch for me!!!

[@WatchClicker]

Yep, it is a great all-rounder

[@MillerVanDotTV]

A sub will not die if you go into salt water with it…. It’s literally made for that environment .

[@danspanos]

In your article on your website, you have a pic of this on a black silicone or rubber strap. Can you tell me what brand it is? Thanks in advance, and great review!!

[@WatchClicker]

That is an FKM strap from B&R Bands

[@faisalingalong]

Went hands on a couple of weeks ago in London and agree, killer piece. Want one! Keep up the great work guys, here and on the podcast. @fsohail

[@khalifa2080]

Unfortunately Hi I got this watch ,my first diver ever what a beauty, however I have damaged very first threading on crown tube. It’s screwing unscrewing perfectly fine. Will it cause issue in long term ? Or I should get it repaired right away. Please guide

[@WatchClicker]

You should be able to get that fixed under warranty

[@matthewboyts5267]

such a clean piece. Great review. @mnboyts

[@michaelsigman8942]

Intro music title please?

[@WatchClicker]

In the description - the whole video uses the same track

[@timemeasured9137]

Seiko Spb143 vs Oris Aquis???

[@WatchClicker]

Aquis all the way

[@shipmate3577]

It's a great watch with a sub-par movement. The accuracy is just atrocious.

[@5stringBS]

Like what we talking? Beyond stated specs?

[@WatchClicker]

I've never had issues with their accuracy to be honest. Their stated accuracy is all over the place but most owners experience better than the stated accuracy.

[@SgtHooch]

Great video. What is the difference between SBCD101 & SPB143?

[@WatchClicker]

Essentially the same thing but the SBDC101 is the Japanese (or out of US) market ref#

[@Nearnface]

wowowowowowowow

[@anurooppv4619]

This watch is too expensive in my country 😣

[@Brianwilkes78]

I like this watch but I still love my monster better.

[@jaycamacho8179]

Whoa lol

[@junl2481]

@ang_relo_bow nice watch!

[@kamelthorn]

Bloody alignment, so disappointing when the rest of the watch is so good….

[@chrisb5917]

So freakin good! @nashvillewatch

[@maxilye]

Great insightful video, might get one soon. @watchdiaries

[@makmakako1]

Any comment! @docmakmak

[@HHIto]

I own Rolexes. I’ll pay for COSC.... add to sum, that’s me! I respect METAS, COSC. I also respect DOXA’s 2824 COSC....but prefer making this with high visibility. Ergo... Rolex > Omega > Doxa >Seiko. Please evolve?

[@WatchClicker]

I'd like to see Seiko adjust their QC to be respective of the prices they charge now.

[@MarcraM82]

That gap between lugs looks terrible. Exposing push pins. Also, Bezel slightly too large for this vintage style imo. Also 6r35 for $1900 AUD...ouch! My experience with this movement is it's not very accurate. The way those endlinks sit against case look disconnected to me. Like the wrong bracelet for the case. Also those bezel minute markers are so misalignmened with the the dial minute markers. That would bother me every time I looked at the watch. Pass for me. Great review netherless.

[@gmshadowtraders]

Lol so is there anything you do like about it then lol

[@MarcraM82]

@@gmshadowtraders I love the dial. And case finishing looks excellent.

[@enriqueali]

Seiko's 6R35 movement can be easily regulated to within COSC specifications by any competent watch technician, so whatever accuracy issues one might experience straight out of the box shouldn't be considered a deal-breaker, if the design and construction of the watch appeal to you. Seiko's pricing, however, I agree errs on the side of optimism. At around US$700 - $900 this might be a more compelling proposition. Will wait and see if the market agrees with me or not. 😁😁😁

[@resjon7981]

Who really buys/wears automatic watches for their accuracy. This watch is so aesthetically pleasing. Consider this quote from the late Andy Warhol in regards to his broken Cartier he wore "do you really think I wear this watch to tell the time?" "I wear this watch as its the watch to wear!"

Perfect for you then! Enjoy

[@jayd549]

Simple and straightforward review. I want this watch. Instagram = soc_rates

[@rafayz9033]

Seiko’s genius lies in the fact that they’re able to convince people to buy a product with the same shitty quality control for a sum that’s multiple times higher than what they made before....which is basically the same thing. Shitty bracelet, sporadic movements, horrendous quality control, a “diashield coating” which means you can never polish your watch (ok that’s not the biggest thing). But what really pisses me off is that in the previous years people would bitch and moan about how Oris is pricing a sellita movement Dive watch for around $2000......And then they turn around from buying $400 prospects models to justifying $1200 prospect models? The level of hypocrisy is unfucking believable. I understand that Saco has hired consultants and realizes that it can never occupy the same market niche than it used to in terms of affordable watches, but that doesn’t mean that everyone jumps on the bandwagon and supports their push to hawk the same shitty quality for a higher price.

[@rafayz9033]

@Fiat Lux I respect that, I'll be sure to check it out

[@WatchClicker]

Seiko certainly has some cleaning up to do with QC, but I can't complain about their movements or coatings. I'd definitely try to handle some of their recent up-market releases if you can. They are solid watches

[@bertsimpsan]

A grand for a nasty watch with no QA and a strap that doesn't even fit the case along with a movement that was in 300 dollar watches 2 years ago? Has Seiko completely lost the plot?

[@WatchClicker]

One could argue they are jumping the shark these days

[@indieladylove]

not worth the price tag given the problematic 6r movement.
