The BEST Seiko Diver for Small Wrists - The SPB317 Slim Turtle Review

I'm sorry for helping you sell your Seiko orange monster for $190

I can't tell you how much I'm enjoying this channel and your blog, as well, from someone with a 6 inch wrist.
Btw, I think I've found a good smaller-sized Seiko diver 👀.. but I'll report back after I actually get my hands on one!

i also have a 6 inch wrist. i have two Seiko divers. the SPB317 and the SBDY085.
i promise you that the SBDY085 fits a slim wrist even better than the SPB317.

You should try out the Seiko 38mm Solar Divers. Yes it's quartz but if you get it like around $300 to $350 it's a good deal for what you're getting.

Yeah it’s a great piece for slim wrist, the only diver you need

worst channel name ever please change it but content wise good video

this video is 80% zoomed in on your face, 20% on the watch, wtf

I know that this vid is about a watch, but it looks more like a facial advertising 😂

It is a struggle. I’m finding more and more that the style of watch can forgive the size of a watch.
I have a couple of larger, larger for me, pilots. But it looks fine because it feels like it should be bigger.

Im a woman with small wrist, and my husband has small wrist and we both love Seiko. Japanese watches in general are my preference ( seiko, citizen, orient, etc). But seiko, like you said, tend too have chunky bulky watches. I do love their womens models, but honestly I'd rather the design of the mens watches. All the engineering and marketing tends to focus on the masculine side of watches...BUT, citizen and seiko's higher end quartz models are AMAZING!! the citizen chronomaster and grand seiko 9f quartz are chefs kiss, thin, smaller diameters, and of course better quality build and qc. Even the vintage stuff is amazing.

Anyways, great vid. Glad i stumbled on this. Agree with yiu on so much.

The best part about this watch, which Seiko should include on every watch, is the lack of that stupid wave bump on the back. Who wants a penny glued on the back of their watch?

I have an 8 inch wrist and don't like anything over 40mm and I prefer 39 mm watches. I have a Brietling super ocean and find it too heavy. I mainly wear an O/W 39 mm field watch and my Hamilton Khaki 40 mm.

Get the seiko Navigator gmt at 37mm and thank me later...

My first video of yours but won’t be my last it’s a great in depth informative video. 👍🏻🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿

Great content bro, i got a 6 inch wrist too and im a seiko lover. Keep up the good work

mamacoo is best watch factory!!!

This is my second comment but I wanted to say i really think you should try some Tudor watches especially the monarch’s, they are smaller and they also are relatively affordable as they do a quartz. I honestly think the chronographs are a great watch and which are my favourite watches and I have a just over 7” wrists.
Great video brother keep it up.

I tried the Slim Turtle and while it is a nice watch and a comfortable wear, I found the design to be too safe. As of right now, I have settled on two neo-vintage divers for my tiny wrist—the last midsize Omega Seamaster Professional ("The Weemaster") and a Seiko SKX001.

I love Seiko but they baffle me, they make their own quartz but won’t regulate a movement, it twists my melon. Have you tried the land tortoise, I also have a small wrist but this land tortoise I have on, fits brilliantly, I prefer the case shape to the slims case 👍

Please also do the review of SEIKO SPB 453❤😊

Have you tried the sbdc101 in person? How does it compare given it's the same price as this one and also a reissue of another diver (62MAS)

I have Tudor mini sub ref 73090 and it fit's very nicely on my 6.5 inch wrists.

Does anyone have a link to this watch?

This is definitely on my list next 🔥👍

I happen to be a 6 something inches wrist too and I totally get all the points you made there ! It is true that the case thickness and the case shape is a crucial point for us, probably more important than the lug to lug measurement.

Get one of the 38mm SNE

Can you do a comparison between this Slim Turtle and the Captain Willard?

I just recently bought the Citizen NY0040, Black, it’s a 42mm, but the actual size is 41.6mm when I measured it, fits my small 6.29in wrist perfectly.

How do you feel about the SPB317 compared to the SRPK29? I know they're a different value proposition but I have similar sized wrists and just want the most comfortable watch. I'm concerned the SRPK29 will feel like a toy compared to the mini turtle. Also love the history of the mini turtle that you laid out here. Thanks

SNE498 is a 47mm watch that's the same weight as an SKX013, and it's more comfortable because it's flatter.

are the spb317 made in japan?

Where do you buy your seiko online under retail price?
