THE SEIKO SKX VS THE TANDORIO | EASY WIN?

Since my new Tandorio looks so similar to the SKX, lets match them up against each other in a quick little comparison
Watches you should check out! - amzn.to/408rJCv

[@aronchas]

Just got tandorios, the 37mm and the 41mm, the 37 mm looks killer on a brown nato and fits very well in my small wrist.

[@samteks125]

I bought the 41mm to see if Incan pull it off on a 6.5" wrist. Not a perfect watch, but pretty damn good considering the price. Only the lume on the hands is utter crap, but that's about it.

[@al3x2728]

@@samteks125 do you think it's a big watch for a 6.5" wrist?

[@davidmarsden305]

They do 2 sizes, the 37mm, which you have, they also do a 41mm

[@davidbidwell250]

The Tandorio has a sapphire crystal while the Seiko is proprietary mineral. There are rumors the Tandorio is NH35 copy, not sure no one has shown the movement on KZbin. Thanks for the review

[@mansour9790]

Someone in youtube opened it. Forgot the chanel and he said it was a Licensed Copy. Basicaly an original. And the goodthing about NH35 is its cheap and easy to replace.

[@Krzysztof_S]

Its not copy. Its geniuine NH35 byt made by TMI for Seiko

[@owenlaprath4135]

I have 2 Tandorio field/pilot watches, and cracked them open to regulate. From factory they were already regulated better than my Invicta Pro-Divers, and I got them both within COSC when worn or on winder carousel. The calibres are made by TMI and run sweet.

[@skycrafts5140]

(*Update - have adjusted the Tandorio and it is now only gaining 1.8secs a day (on wrist) , with a beat error of 0.1-0.2ms. I have also used it on a dive down to 80ft and worked in it for two weeks, and it is fine. So far, excellent buy.) I really like my SKX. But to be fair, the Tandorio comes with sapphire glass and a Seiko movement that hacks. The Tandorio is now also available with a NH36A movement (day and date) and has minute marks on the chapter ring. There is also a version with a titanium case, for a slightly higher cost. The Tandorio is a great alternative to the SKX. I use mine as a 'general daily' watch to preserve my SKX. Thanks for the video.

[@mikaeljonsson4686]

Better comparing the actual 41mm Tandorio to the SKX007, imho... :)

[@NotAnotherWatchChannel]

I don’t disagree, didn’t see it as an option when I purchased

[@7rslender]

I bought my SKX013 like 5 years ago for 180.- A great watch for a great price with some short comings. Today these go for more than 500.- which does not make sense to buy anymore. The Tandorio is a great little beater for 60.-, just ordered another one with the day/date complication

[@Are_Jay_R3]

Does the case appear to be the same size as the 013?

[@oguzhanakdogan9787]

Thanks for your input. I was considering Tandorio as a beater also never owned an skx so wondered what it would be like. Great choice of music, btw

[@joelf5565]

I prefer the look of the Tandorio. I like that it doesn’t have the minute markers on the dial and only the bezel. The Seiko having minute markers on both the dial and bezel looks busy and frankly redundant.

[@cbody70]

For me the modern trend to plus 40 mm watches is an abomination. Watches that size come across as crass and classless. The first Rolex sub was 37.5 mm across the dial which is perfect in my book taking into account the bezel. I have my dad's 36 mm Doxa which looks perfect on my 7" wrist. I applaud Tandorio for keeping their watch under 40.

[@marcelpfeiffer6587]

I 100% agree with you review. I did choose another bigger Tandorio model, which is much closer to the Seiko 5 Sports in design and quality

[@max420thc]

Me too, I just got the 41 mm tandorio in titanium ,

[@MisterHughes]

Getting tempted by the 41mm titanium version with a sterile dial, it's brand new, has a better Seiko movement than the original (hacking and hand winding, don't mind if I do), and is a very reasonable price compared to the gouging people do since the SKX was discontinued.

[@ramy8700]

Killer price. The case alone goes for $60

[@rrich52806]

Just got mine sterile titanium in. $77USD

[@alencode]

The nh35 is better movement, has hacking and hand winding.

[@thepossum8569]

tandorio makes a 41mm which would have been an apples to apples comparison

[@NotAnotherWatchChannel]

Yeah I learned that after and wasn’t available when I bought this but overall view doesn’t change much

[@GuySasha2022]

Exactly

[@beakyturbot]

Not really comparing apples with apples is it? If you buy a smaller watch what is the point comparing size? Tandorio make a 40mm with day complication so that would be a more realistic comparison.

[@samcicj]

The fair comparative will be with skx013

[@wtp5]

Tandoori is awesome. I bought orange for occasional wear. Perfect size and outstanding quality of $65 on sale. Love it. These points of comparison are stretching it.

[@alanroberts8280]

definately easy win for tandorio

[@ajp5961]

Can you put a metal strap on tandorio?

[@GuySasha2022]

Yes

[@DM-0072]

Just dont get the tandorio wet...mine drowned just from a light rinse under the tap

[@ypxgame]

have you screw down it?

[@DM-0072]

@ypxgame yes all screwed down...both crown and backplate. Possibly the worst watch ive ever had. I have 30+ watches as i collect them. Kept excellent time but definitely not even splashproof

[@ypxgame]

oh my. I am sorry to hear that. :( *hug* ​@@DM-0072

[@Traveller4lifee]

Did you talk about the Crystal? Seiko mineral glass and Tandorio Spphire right?

[@luishenao-um5qw]

7s26 or nh35 ???

[@adamw7411]

Tandario should change The logo and from the green loom to white loom. Other than that it is a nice watch

[@burnerturner7749]

7s26 movt with no hacking and winding is always a turnoff for me
