Buy These SEIKO Watches Before They're GONE!

Seiko simply don't make watches like this anymore. Soon, these watches will be a thing of the past. However it is not too late to be a part of history and pick one up before they're gone for good.

Great vid, you are dead right I bought one a few years ago and it's a classic , never get tired of it , these models are the end of an era as far as seiko goes they are moving in a different direction now alas.

[@thebaldwatchcollector]

I was lucky enough to jump on the SKX before the priced balloned, but missed the Sarb and Alpinist, but I do think there are great alternatives, especially this Seiko 5, maybe not such a great spec, but for looks and choice the rabbit hole is deep with this range

[@whatruta]

The holy grail of SEIKO!? I ve heard stories and rumors before but never believed it really exists, until now

Beautifully reviewed - subscribed !!!

[@TopTierTicker]

Awesome, thank you!

[@boutbetter]

you provide excellent analysis and the content is on point. It would be tough as a Seiko re sales person but you make great up sale selling points.

[@TopTierTicker]

I appreciate that 🙏

[@johnsimai9379]

I got one , this is the second Seiko 5 what I got . I love this watch .

[@keithshergold9257]

I just bought a SNXS 77 for exactly the reason you talk about here. I love it completely out of proportion to its ludicrously low price. It looks as good as a watch many times more expensive. And it keeps good time!

[@s.m.pravin9738]

Where did you buy it from? Amazon?

[@joylessmonkey5714]

but like ufo

[@gamerzwithjobs330]

What your opinion between between the SNKL45 and the SNXS79. Thanks

[@buzzufy]

Those are still great watches I must say. Thanks for the video.

[@TopTierTicker]

They are, I've experienced 4 different old Seiko 5 models now. Every single one has been an absolute joy, as you said, great watches!

[@samdeatton181]

@@TopTierTicker Be careful. You may start to lose your mind. I have 3 different old Seiko 5s and I swear Seiko has built in the same personality that you see on the dial. My SNK809 is very steady and keeps good time due to its military styling. My SNK375 is always running fast because with its deep black dial with snappy red stripe it thinks it's a gauge out of a 1960s sports car. And my beautiful silver dial SNKK87 is a spoiled little diva. She will keep good time while being worn, but seems to have almost no power reserve when taken off.

[@marlonreyno6393]

Where can we purchase this model

[@RogerSartet007]

2:00 I was fortunate enough to get my hands on one of these via Long Island Watch. I got the Japanese release (mentioned on the dial, left to the 6 o' clock). When worn, this basic automatic (non-hacking) runs about 3 seconds slow over the course of 5 days. I own automatics between 100€ and 700€ and not a single one of them comes close to this one in accuracy. I heard/read the Malaysian version (the one featured in your video) would be a little less accurate, but still. If there's one thing I regret, then it's not having bought a SARB033 when they were still at the acceptable price of 350€. Couldn't agree more on your assessment. Best regards from over the North Sea

[@obesetuna3164]

The Orient 3 Star is worth a look.

[@TopTierTicker]

Just checked them out now! Very Seiko 5'esk. Love them actually. Might get one in for review. Thanks for watching another video 🥇

[@obesetuna3164]

@@TopTierTicker The original Seiko 5, Orient 3 Star, and the long since discontinued Citizen 7. All of them have a tendency to tick forever. All the best.

[@Sportsman134]

what strap are you using?

[@valengreymoon5623]

Picked up an SNKL 23J a couple years ago for $105, but seeing them now, hitting near $250.

[@hakki368]

For me, the SNXS79 and its sisters (SNXS77, 75, 73), and the SNKL41 and its sisters (SNKL 43, 45) are more legendary in looks. A good number of YTers have also highlighted these two series/lines. I'm not so hot about the vertical lines in the SNKL23 that sort of creates a sector dial effect. But hey, to each his own.

[@vicentvanmole]

These low cost old watch designed well &looks good .Newer one is just retro look remade.

[@TopTierTicker]

Yes I agree, Thanks for watching!

[@woonfaseng8737]

there is also another White Dial version of this same watch with some golden tone hands whatever . i cant remember the model name. it is exactly the same except it is in pure WHITE dial (same lined pattern too ) . but it may not be available outside Asia . i am in Singapore. saw that in some retail stalls some years ago around 2017 or so. the prices of this watch (black version ) has NOT increased after the hodinkee article..... really still able to get this pre owned around 120 to 180 Singapore / Aussie Dollars . i bought one black version some years ago but soon sold it as it seems too small although my wrist isnt that big at 6 n 3/4 inch wrist .... i dont know why.... maybe lug to lug too small.... i wear Rolex 34mm OP date but i dont find that too small but this indeed feel small on my wrist so i sold it .

[@TopTierTicker]

Very interesting about the sizing issues. I guess every watch fits a wrist differently. Thanks for watching mate!

[@HHasan-of2vi]

Seiko 5 srpe51 also one of the best watch.

[@kfofiofkkf7883]

Between this and snk45 which one would you go for?

[@gars1074]

I deliberated the same question for months before I ordered the 45. I was really disappointed at how small these watches are. When I opened the package when I got it I was shocked at the size. The videos make them look a lot bigger. I am average wrist size also.

[@Lisa-vj6pz]

Seiko in my opinion is way way way better than Rolex..... I own two rolexes and I prefer my Seiko 5 it's actually a man's watch it's a 37 mm but it fits my wrist perfect it's got a silver dial that I love to wear with leopard skin and that bracelet on there just works so good for me I can understand if somebody has a hairy arm and maybe it does pull arm hair but for a woman this is like the ultimate fit !!!!it is just awesome!!

[@TopTierTicker]

The old school seiko 5s are just elite.

[@tobylarr8789]

I just ordered an SNKL23. Can anyone recommend a good website to buy a decent quality president or Jubilee bracelet for the watch?

[@roybrolsbeak]

aliexpress or ebay ..

[@deepakbissyan2669]

I am confused between snxs79 and snkl23, what would be your suggestion among these two?

[@TopTierTicker]

I'd probably go SNXS79. The lug gap on the SNKL23 becomes very annoying and too large after a while of owning it.

[@deepakbissyan2669]

@@TopTierTicker Thanks mate., I was also considering L23, It has a great dial,,, really confused in these two.......

[@RealHealthyGuidance]

I love my SARX015

[@seiko9361]

What about snkl17?

[@BroodallyHonest]

What's all of the hype about concerning the 23? What about the snkl45, for example? Is the 23 just much better for some reason?

[@TopTierTicker]

Absolutely nothing wrong with the other SNKL models, Almost identical in DNA. For me, it's the classic aesthetic of the 23 that sets it apart. A lot of the other SNKL models are a bit dated in design and simply don't look as classy or expensive as the 23. Just my opinion

[@typical_vibes5049]

Good day Sir! I just bought a Seiko 5 online at around $170 and i really doubt if this watch is legit🤦‍♂️ it is a Ref. SNKP14K1 Cal. 7S26, Automatic and Water Resist 50M base on the label provided. Please help me sir.😔🙏

[@titiung]

thats about right.

[@gmshadowtraders]

Make it a limited edition!

[@the1.people]

I have this watch .but bro when you put this watch in leather strap its huge i mean huge gape between the case and the leather strap.......

[@TopTierTicker]

Yeah ive ordered a jubilee for it :)

[@seavee2190]

Nato strap it.. Looks good..

[@wastedkafir9134]

I own SNKL41J1. I think this looks much better than SNKL23.

[@ref6122]

Yes, buy up all the 7s26 Seikos while they last.You will never see anything like them at this price point again.

[@TopTierTicker]

Yep!! Soon, this will all be a thing of the past and we will think, 'those were the good old days' 😆

[@mustang5.030]

Where I can purchase that watch

[@TopTierTicker]

I've left a link in the description mate!

[@mustang5.030]

I can't find that watch can you send me the address

[@Thaozz]

The link is not referring to the watch but a chat with a hotel

[@mustang5.030]

Exactly send u to hotel page

[@TopTierTicker]

My apologies, have no idea why it was doing that. I've now updated the link with the correct one!

[@vermazing888]

He’s right

[@samdeatton181]

Other low cost Seikos that have beautiful dials are any watches that have the SGE prefix. These are quartz models with steady and precise second hands, many with sapphire crystals and 100M WR. They usually cost less than $100. Nobody wants to review or know about them.

[@TopTierTicker]

I think a lot of people are scared of Quartz! I'll take a look at them though and might get one in for review.

[@ohyeahyeahimasian392]

Can you give me an example of a model number?

[@watcheswithabdullah]

Toooo many Seikos and too little money! 🤣

[@TopTierTicker]

That's exactly the problem 😆😆

[@kavinsky4062]

[@jeffsvlog203]

Orient offers much better value for money than Seiko nowadays

[@TopTierTicker]

Yep! Orient and Tissot are the best value watches around at the moment for me

[@shubhamparate3379]

I guess Orient is owned by Seiko

[@atifghafoor6258]

I've had issues with 2 Orient watches now Orient ray 2 bezel very difficult to turn and Orient kamasu bezel won't turn at all. My Orient kano and seiko 5 Sports bezel work fine.

[@MsVk4]

Ce ne sono milioni...se ne troveranno sempre a prezzi bassi.

[@TopTierTicker]

Yes there is definitely a lot of them have been made, nowhere near millions but that is because they are so popular. I still think these iconic models will demans a small premium once they aren't being made anymore!

[@manuel_winde]

Agree - the skx is now more expensive than a samurai or turtle

[@glenvillanueva6950]

It is a marketing technique. They will stop it so people would buy them and to increase sale. After a few years, they will make a come back.

This is far from the best Seiko 5. The SNKL43/41 are both better looking watches. That’s just the beginning. The lugs are too pointy and it has huge strap gap. You guys are weird
