Just as Rolex is the brand everyone knows as the luxury watch to have, Seiko has the same reputation as the affordable, reliable go-to for those shopping on a budget. Very few have heard of Seiko’s big brother, Grand Seiko, and when they do, the inevitable response is one of shock; after all, why would anyone pay ten times the price of a standard Seiko for the addition of the word ‘Grand’?

@paintballplayer700

@@dougm659 Quartz watches don't move the second hand at the frequency of the crystal the way that mechanical watches move the hand at the frequency of the escapement. The circuitry of a quartz watch keeps track of the crystal vibrations, but they use an electronic stepper motor to move the hand at some arbitrarily-decided frequency. In most quartz watches they use the motor to move the hand once per second, to save battery life. Bulova chooses to move it multiple times per second to mimic a sweeping second hand. But it is still not truly smooth, the way a Spring Drive is. Spring drive is the smoothest possible system because the gear train doesn't "tick", it is in 100% constant motion.

Great video! My first watch was a Timex field watch when I was 7yrs old. In 1975 for my 11th birthday my dad was working in the Middle East and bought me a Seiko Pogue 6139 the one with the Orange dial. All my friends at school were so jealous. It was far too big for my skinny child wrists but I loved everything about that watch. Nowadays I have a few Seiko's - SARB 033, SARB 017 Alpinist and SARX 045 amongst other entry level Swiss watches of a similar calibre and I appreciate what is good about all of them. I am yet to dip into the high end of horology and my tastes change as I learn about different watch makers and their history and philosophy, however, I can't help but feel some sort of allegiance to Seiko and I would love to own a Grande Seiko in the future. This video among others has strengthened my feelings and choice regarding this. The story about the guy putting 30 years of his life's work into developing the Spring Drive - the persistance and determination in acheiving this goal. I want to celebrate that by proudly owning and wearing such a watch.

Patrick Riarchy I believe the only one officially named Cocktail time was the first one the Sarb 065. The newer ones with the slightly lower grade 4r15 movement are only called cocktail time by enthusiasts and are now just called presage watches. You can tell the presage models because they have much bigger, onion shaped crowns.

Seiko watches, to me, are just amazing. I was watching (hehe. Puns) videos one day, and found some about the Seiko 5. I did some research and it is now the next watch I’m gonna get. It’s insane value for money.

I have seiko 5 that is around 40 years old. I bought it non working on local flea market for around 10 bucks. Had it serviced and repaired for another 30 bucks. It is my favorite watch, it is small, elegant and fairly accurate. It survived a few nasty shocks and after I had it in my possesion for 5 years it is still going strong

Thank you so much for this video. I purchased the dark blue dial (SRPB41J1) Presage on Tuesday after having my eye on it for quite some time. I love it. Absolutely gorgeous. It is also accurate. Still within one second after initial setting. The beautiful macro shots were stunning and made me smile and almost cry. I’m very proud to own this watch. To my surprise after reading and viewing reviews that were quite critical I even enjoy the bracelet. Though I have ordered a brown leather band that will show off the watch even better. Magnificent value for $350CAD including tax. I sincerely hope you continue to feature watches in the sub $2500 range. If for no other reason to see them given your loving attention under the lens. Thanks again.

I’ve been looking for a new affordable timepiece and now I’m finding myself looking at getting a new Seiko (at the $1,000 to $1,500 budget). I’ve seen many other brands and little excites me... unless I spend a lot more (which is money I should spend on my children’s future instead). Great video! Both gorgeous watches. 👍

I have one sad and one uplifting story about Seiko watches. Their history and attention to detail, even on the lower-end watches has always made me like their philosophy. I got a Seiko when I was 15, a quartz chronograph. It was one of the mid-tier models, nothing too fancy, but still nice. However, it did indeed die. Perhaps from heavy use or some unfortunate shock at some point many years later. However, in my late 20s, early 30s I got a pair of identical Seikos from 1972 in a seemingly quite rare package. One of them runs flawlessly and one may be in need of a service, but they are some of my most beloved watches. I even managed to find unused crystals (they are acrylic, so they are easily nicked) so I could make them look as new. They may not have been more than mid-tier either when they were released, but they are rare today and I usually wear it once a week or so. I later got a rugged Seiko 5 that I can use when I do something more taxing, sport or some work that may harm the crystal on one with an acrylic face (like the 1970s ones). I may try to find a sapphire crystal for that one one of these days.
