You Have Been Replaced ! Seiko SNZG13

[@carlmendoza3367]

I've been using this watch for almost 4 years and hasn't missed a bit. for the price point what more can we ask? automatic watch, easy to read day and date and the dial is quite decent that a quick look you'll see everything. Got an skx007 and a hamilton khaki but this watch gets part of my weekly rotation as its a decent watch in my opinion.

Nice to hear that this watch is still getting some love. I still have mine

@@watchify1775 yeah saw some post on reddit as well about this watch. Gonna use mine until it stops working. 😁

Hm is the replacement double down sapphire crystal and where did you get it?

[@watchify1775]

Bought four years ago and follow as the first day.

[@watchify1775]

Nice - for some reason I can't part with mine. Just bought a new strap for it 😁

[@Avaddon911]

I upgraded to the 4r36a movement in mine. It's nice to have the option to hand wind I guess 😂

[@watchify1775]

Yes for sure. For me it's a big deal :)

@@watchify1775 if it had a screw down crown it would be the perfect watch in my opinion.

[@watchify1775]

@@Avaddon911 Even for dive watches I have heard the screw down crown doesn't add to Water resistance at 100 Meters or less.

[@Avaddon911]

@@watchify1775 I just worry about my crown pulling out accidentally. It doesn't really have anything to with added water resistance I'm just paranoid lol

How many hours would you say the lume is readable on the snzg?

[@watchify1775]

I tested this out last night by fully charging the lume before going to bed. If your eyes are adjusted to the low light conditions, you can make out the faint lume glow even 6 hours later

[@tambor76]

@@watchify1775 - Thanks alot for the info. Ive been thinking of buying the same watch but have been hesitant because i was unsure about the lume. I think i'll go ahead and buy it. Thanks again. 👍

[@hogwash120664]

So what was the size of the replacement sapphire sir?

[@watchify1775]

I got mine from dlw. They don't mention the size. www.dlwwatches.com/products/sapphire-double-dome-snzg15?_pos=1&_sid=21ffe53b8&_ss=r

I'd get the SRPE rather than the SRPG.

[@david.gar.mar.]

Para nada de acuerdo, existiendo los nuevos Seiko field sports, deja de tener sentido el modelo viejo. Y te lo dice un propietario del modelo viejo tal y como salió de fabrica.

Look big on your small wrist

[@watchify1775]

42mm is not really that large. The camera always makes watch look bigger on wrist shots

[@biasaigon7155]

@@watchify1775 of course 42mm is good size for average and big wrist . But what i see the lug to lug size is max on your wrist then it not really nice .

[@Bonpu]

I have a 7 inch and even the 39 mm SRPG looks clearly too large for its retro style.

[@biasaigon7155]

@@Bonpu 7-7.5 inch wrist is great size for 39 to 42mm . My wrist 7.9 inch about 20cm but 36mm is my daily watch its all about my taste . I just dont like big watch style on small wrist of boys . Its girly
