Why Everyone Loves Seiko Watches

Check out these NEW IFL Drops (and so many more awesome, customised watches): bit.ly/watchgr...
Why do watch collectors love Seiko so much? Sure we love Rolex, OMEGA, Tudor, Cartier. But nothing quite hits like Seiko. I haven't owned a Seiko until recently - the Seiko 5 GMT and now a new Seiko 5 (yay IFL! Thank you!) but even just from getting these I've become a Seiko lover. There is a certain character to their watches.
There are 5 reasons why I think we love Seiko so much: 5. Their undeniable charm. 4. The Japanese innovative approach to watchmaking and just how different they are from European watchmaking. 3. Heritage - even though we always talk about the value proposition of Seiko, they have heritage similar to Audemars Piguet, Breitling and they are even older than Rolex. 2. They have a broad catalogue - there really is something for everyone. 1. And biggest - they over deliver. What you get for the price; the watch that is delivered for a really reasonable price. £500 / $500 isn't cheap. But you get a lot of watch for that price.
This is why I think everyone loves Seiko so much. Did I miss anything big? Why do you love Seiko? Is Seiko overrated? Let me know in the comments.

Seiko can be a beater watch, it can be an everyday watch, it can be a ISO diver watch, it can be a dress watch. Seiko can be for everyone. Also, the most modded watch.

[@cunawarit]

Seiko can be a TV watch and a computer watch, too. Seiko is not only a brand that's an expert watch maker but also a risk taker. And quirky as hell too, but we love it for it!

[@morphyon]

Are there ANY other watch brands that get modded? I mean on a broader basis, not only one offs.

I'm wearing a Grand Seiko "Katana", a US-only limited edition. Mine is 287/500. Watching the smooth sweep of the second hand is mesmerizing for sure. The Spring Drive accuracy in phenomenal. As for the bracelet, I'm not sure what all the fuss is about. Yes, there is no micro adjustment, but maybe I got lucky and found the perfect fit after my watchmaker removed the necessary number of links. You could always go with a leather strap if the bracelet isn't to your liking. As a matter of fact, it comes with a strap. The finish on a Grand Seiko is second to none in my opinion.

[@Asp0321]

One thing that I think needs to be said is that even though there’s this narrative that Seiko is price gouging, Long Island Watch recently did a video that pretty succinctly showed that Seiko is still putting out good timepieces for a good price. It’s just that the watches are now coming up to RRP and inflation, but even still, Seiko still tries to put a fair price on their new offerings. “We live in a society”, as they say.

[@BrittPearceWatches]

I agree completely! 👏🏻👏🏻

[@john-paulsilke893]

Agreed. I watched that video all along saying the same things. They are absolutely the same and in some ways a better deal.

[@JeeGee114]

They already raised prices (without fixing qc issues) before the enormous inflation started. Improvements such as the 6R35 turned out to be less than great. I keep wat I have but moved on to Citizen (JDM) watches and some Bulova watches.

[@joniden2215]

Seiko and Casio make watches for everyone.

[@BrittPearceWatches]

So true! 👏🏻

[@john-paulsilke893]

Japanese love to see their tools/machines worn out and broken from hard use. German and Swiss want you to admire their tools and machines. That’s why Japanese cars run longer. Not because they’re better, they aren’t. But because they’re designed to be used by people who won’t follow instruction manuals perfectly or use their tools/machines in the ideal environment. (Don’t change your oil in your Camery for 30,000kms, it keeps going without issue. Treat your BMW that way and it’s toast first time, every time.

Great, welcome to the club! Before I got into watches I just had a Seiko Solar SNE056, purchased in 2012 for $103. In January 2024 I replaced the rechargeable battery and it’s still running great. Now, I have 8 Seiko watches in my 15 watch collection. Five of these are vintage. A Laurel made in 1960 and a pocket watch made in 1971, for example. The vintage watches keep better time than my Presage! I have never paid more than $500 for a watch. Seiko! ❤

And I wonder if this isn't about to take the throne as my favourite in my little collection.

[@christopherseivard8925]

Thanks! I will save this, and use it to settle arguments! I could buy a Seiko a day. Currently, I am recovering from a stroke. (I lived. The recovery? A work in progress..) while rehabbing and therapy, I usually change Seikos twice a day.

Hello Britt, I bought the Seiko Edition from IFL in July this year and I'm thrilled. For me, the Deep Ocean Diver is a small work of art on my wrist. Thanks for the content.

[@rfezzie]

I really love the design of Seikos, but I've gotta say that their QC has left a lot to be desired in my experience. I received a SRPE61 for my birthday 2 years ago and noticed that there was a literal hair on the dial. Small, but once I saw it, there was no going back. Thankfully I returned it and received a hair-free model. Yet with the replacement, I realized much too late that the hand winding did not work. Not a big deal when I wore it every day, but now that I have a couple more watches, it's a real hassle. Would love to try another seiko someday, but I have some trust issues now.

Focus

[@cunawarit]

Seiko has historically been cherished for its exceptional value for money, a reputation it maintained for many years. Consumers grew accustomed to Seiko's reliability and affordability, as well as that Seiko "feel" distinguishing it from other brands. Unlike some brands that tend to repeat their successful models and focus only on refining existing movements without significant technological advancements (looking at Swiss brands), Seiko has consistently demonstrated innovation and occasional quirkiness. Although Seiko may no longer offer the same unbeatable value for money as it once did, and it has not released an unconventional watch like the TV watch in recent decades, the brand continues to excel in every aspect of horology. From producing affordable quartz movements to advancing high-accuracy quartz technology, Seiko proves itself as master watchmakers, prioritizing horological expertise over mere marketing prowess (looking at Swiss brands again).

[@earthenjadis8199]

If this isn't an AI generated response...

[@cunawarit]

@earthenjadis8199 What gives you that impression? I just get really enthusiastic about horological content and tend to go on about it. My point is that Seiko takes risks and not only innovates but also does some bold, unconventional things from time to time. This approach is quite refreshing and contributes to that unique Seiko feel that so many people love.

Gotta love Seiko. They're the everyman's watch. As for their QC, owned a Kinetic Sport 150 back in the day & it was still going strong 17 years later. It was never serviced. I still own five or six & appreciate them as much as my Rolex & Tudor.

[@DonaldJoeKennedy]

I'm mostly with your friend Mo. I have several Seikos and don't like wearing them because of what the brand had become: overpriced with inconsistent but lacking quality control. That's not charming or rare. It's common and a real problem. The only Seiko I'm interested in now is the Alpinist GMT with green dial. Grand Seiko, yes, awesome! But they ain't $1,000 either. Tell Mo to get a Bulova Jet Star or Super Seville. Or a 7S26 SNXS with upgraded bracelet/strap. 👍🏼

I fall into the “doesn’t love Seiko” camp. I recently bought one, and it’s easily the worst experience I’ve ever had with a watch. I bought an Arnie, and it doesn’t work. Factory resets when exposed to light. Kind of a big deal for a solar watch. Sent it into Seiko to have them fix it (paid shipping on my own dime), and got it back after about a month. I crack it open, take it outside, and it resets again. Apparently it’s an issue endemic to the 2023/24 Arnies. Horrible QC, and bad CS. It’s killed any desire for me to purchase from the brand again into the future. Casio was already getting my money, but now they’ve assured my loyalty.

People can hate Seiko as much as they want (especially on issues like pricing and QC nowadays), but, no matter what, you'll never go wrong with a Seiko (and same goes with a Casio, Citizen, Orient --the Big 4 of Japanese timepieces). Loved by Muggles and watchnerds alike, especially in Asia. Heck, there are even 'Seiko communities' from where I came from. And there is one video I saw where a Thai guy collecting Seiko Monster only and try to get his hands on every variants 😂. Lovely video as always Britt, big fan from Indonesia. 🎉
