What do you think of the Seiko Presage Sharp Edge? Is there a watch or brand that you wish you had explored earlier in your journey? Let me know what you think in the comments section.

Sarx 057 is still to this day pound to pound the best watch ever.

[@ShahLusso]

Oooh i'll have to check that out 👀

[@dado380]

@@ShahLusso Check also the best blue dial ever sarb 009 ,I lost on ebay last year,final bid was 2.800€.

[@tomnormannnilsen2770]

I have the blue version, and very happy with it. My watch is only a couple of seconds fast.

[@ShahLusso]

I was close to getting the blue, but in the end i went for the red - as soon as I saw it i knew i had to have it :D

The sharp edge models can be picked up for incredible prices nowadays. Mainly because the 6R35 doesnt have a great reputation. Makes for a great value offer if you get lucky with the movement.

[@ShahLusso]

Yeah, they're really insane value - and (knock on wood) with the one I got the movement's performing as well as I expected, not breaking any records in accuracy but at least i'm not minutes off per day 😅

[@Keedaaaaaaaaa]

Is this series discontinued?

[@ShahLusso]

As of now its still on the Seiko website, but only in the blue and green dials - my guess would be they're slowly phasing it out

No doubt a nice looking watch. Congrats on a well working one you got 👍

[@ShahLusso]

Thanks! :)

I just had it first time in my hand in a Seiko boutique. It felt great, it looks awesome and it is dangerously close to the luxury section of Grand Seiko. Honestly I don't see a reason to buy a King Seiko for twice the price. One employee said it might be that these models will not be delivered anymore, but he wasn't sure about. He though that the new Classic line might be replace the Sharp edge, which would be a shame. The red dial in the day light was just such a stunner and I think I will add it to my collection.

Great watch!! If when I bought my GMT there would have been the red one I would have been hesitant...bu overall I still prefer the sportier GMT version ;)

[@ShahLusso]

Admittedly the sharp edge GMT is what put this on my radar but I never got the chance to try one on, then soon as I saw this on my wrist I had to go for it 😄

[@joelopic]

Its a nice looking watch but I hate to say that the new Erebus ascend is a better looking piece and probably a better watch.

[@ShahLusso]

If we’re talking that purple dialed one then you might be onto something 😉

[@joelopic]

@@ShahLusso the orange actually is the stunner for me.

No chance. Not in hand.
