The BEST Seiko watches according to... Seiko?

SPB and even more so, SLA series are far from inexpensive, they are really beautiful.

It's such a shame they don't used the good movement like the 4S line in the modern watches or the 56 and 52 as these can get up to a chrono certification standard.

Exquisite video quality

AR46 could do with smaller chrono pushers I think. If it’s to be a watch that’s worn away from the track then it could be prone to getting damaged. The watch looks really nice.

Some of Seiko's new SPB line are superb and they're knocking it outta park. The heritage turtle is one such watch, it is so so nice, the other is the new slim 62MAS, it is just stunning. I'm hoping Seiko will bring out a more affordable SPB version of it in the near future

this are my current budget but good sets that anybody can consider.
1. SKX007- 7s26
2. Sumo Hulk-6R35- huge size dial but fits on the small hands depends on personal preference.
3. King samurai -4R35 - Looks great but not really a good watch for it feels chunky on small wrist. Strap change will make it have a great fit as stock metal links makes it look bulkier than it feels.
4. Urban safari Street series tuna- 4R36 - perfect outdoor small wrist. great to highlight collections as most nice dials are either black, dark blue and shades of green.
5. King Turtle Dark Manta- 4R36 - Save the Ocean Special Edition- best feeling small or big wrist alike
6. Antarctica Penguin Monster 4R36 - Save the Ocean Special Edition- perfect size for small wrist
Despite being affordable these are all from ProspeX line up excluding the SKX but is also ISO certified diver's which is iconic and can be used as dressKX with just change of straps as all 5 on these lists. Bryan Mayer red dial Seiko 5 is great but very pricey for its specs. SSK00* GMT's comes as a surprise for me as well very good for price.
If you want higher tier, go with the SLA , Captain Willard and Marine Master or even Grand Seiko.
if you want to collect diver's skip orient and go straight to , SKX, Prospex, PADI, Marine Master and SLA series.
If you are not sure and want a feel of diver's watch. Ali express offers discounted homages of mostly iconic watches. Steel Dive Captain Willard which looks exactly like a seiko turtle is a great test buy. There are better line from SAN MARTIN and other brands in Ali express but there prices tend to be creeping lately. After owning the fake turtle and these homages from Ali express , I can say that they are somewhat on par with quality with fraction of the price and at times offer higher specs with fraction of the price while using legit NH3* which is also same as Seiko's 4R3*, I know that I need to own one as it is the best feeling case among the watches I have. Samurai, Tuna, Sumo, SKX, Monster and an Orient Kamasu.
Happy collecting cheers. There are tons to choose from like pokemon collection .

I've been quite tempted by a King Turtle lately, still not sure though...

Great video, thanks. Where is the seiko shop that you visited. .

Great video. What is the wrist size shown in the footage please?

I am sure to buy a well designed Grand Seiko with perpetual day date calendar. It should have designs taking the best looks from rolex, rado and omega.

Other than the power reserve, the 6r movement is truly a downgrade. The movement architecture is really old, and it suffers from extreme positional variance issues. Even if you can get it to within 15 seconds dial up, good luck getting within 15 seconds while wearing it. Garbage.

I'm glad the normies still only care about rolex's and look down on Seiko's. It's like a watch enthusiasts hidden gem.

The red king seiko is amazing, I thought it was too expensive, I thought it's wasn't the best value. But I saw it in person and my God is it stunning, the finishing is almost grand seiko and the bracelet and size is great, I own a grand seiko and still I find merit to this king seiko. For those wanting grand seiko on a budget, or if you want that vintage feel with a classy no date watch this is a great option. Also the bracelet is miles better than all lower end grand seikos.

If I could I would have gone with Grand Seiko GMT, the latest one, it is awesome one.

I’m a seikohollic.

Too many to list .

I have the skx 013, but the best of all is now the spb317

Nice choices, but there are so many more Seiko models to choose from 😂

I have a king turtle, a Antarctica monster and the Arnie
