Seiko SBSC017 5KX GMT - is it still relevant?
Today we take a quick look at this new dial variant of the 5KX GMT.
The SBSC017 (aka SSK033) is new colour launched last October but I question if this one is want the fans wanted. Plenty of watches at lower prices out there with the same movement and much better specs & build to choose from, so this release is definitely riding on blind loyalty and nostalgia.
These days, I'm underwhelmed by entry-level Seikos, so this watch is not for me.
Let me know what you think of this.
Special thanks to Hour Boutique for loaning me this watch.
You can find them on Lazada.

The REAL CasiOak? Which one? GA2100 vs EFS570
Просмотров 187День назад
In this video, I share with you five reasons that I feel conferred the CasiOak title to the GA-2100. I think this could have gone either way. Both these Casio models share these defining features - octagonal bezel with integrated-bracelet look. I'm a big fan of the GA-2100. I have an assortment of GA2100 and GAB2100s and I wear these watches on a daily basis. Still, I feel that the EFS-570 real...
Casio Edifice EFS-S570D - The REAL CasiOak!

This watch should be called the CasiOak instead of the GA-2100. We've got the octagonal bezel, screws, all-steel construction, sapphire crystal and solar-powered chronograph module all in a 9.8mm thin case! I think this is too good to be true, and people are just crazy to sleep on this watch. I'm totally liking this one, and I just get it myself. Let me know what you think of this watch. Specia...

The A100WEPC has to be the cutest watch I've reviewed. A fun collaboration between Casio and Pacman, this one just brings a smile whenever I look at it. While it is essentially a stock A100WE with fancy prints added, it still looks cool. I think the children and geeks will like it. Let me know what you think of this.

Seiko Presage Classic Open Heart SARJ007 - do you really want these features?
Просмотров 8025 месяцев назад
I can't help but think that many watch fans out there may not really want or need the features found on this one. The SARJ007 has a 24-hour time indicator and an open-heart complication at 9 o'clock. Both features are honestly redundant to me. Let me know what you think of this. Special thanks to Hour Boutique for loaning me this watch.

New Orient Bambino 38mm Small Seconds - better than before!
Просмотров 2 тыс.6 месяцев назад
New small seconds Bambino joins the lineup. I'm liking this one over the usual central seconds version because it looks classier and it's slightly thinner. While the Bambino line is entry-level, I feel that these are great-value daily watches. If you're looking for a watch of this style and don't want to break the bank, the Bambino 38 is a great choice. Tell me how you feel about this one. Spec...

What is the model of dive seiko in 1:53 ?
SNZF17
It's Arabic. Not Hindi.
The Swiss railway clock was designed in 1944 by Hans Hilfiker, a Swiss engineer and Swiss Federal Railways (SBB) employee, together with Moser-Baer, a Swiss clock manufacturer, for use by the SBB as a station clock. 🕘 ✌🏻👨🏼🦱✌🏻
I looked at this watch and it is just plain stupid. It is made to look like a dive watch with a coin edge bezel that does not rotate, mineral not sapphire crystal, only 100m WR and not screwdown caseback. For what you get it is way overpriced, you can get MUCH better for those $$$. A very hard pass. As someone else has noted 'are you sure it's a real Citizen', (edit by me: surly Citizen cannot be that stupid, it's the sort of thing cheap Chinese knock-offs do).
Have you had an opportunity to see the new smaller Samurai in person yet? The SRPL11 / 13
Yes I briefly held it at the store. Nice watch. I’ll try to get in one of those for review soon.
hello anyone know if i still can get this model black/gold i cant seem to find it in the sales
This model should be discontinued. Probably need to find it as NOS or used.
@ i was looking on ebay and found nothing, thx for the reply, seems like the blue and the maroon one are still in the sale sadly this golden one its kinda hard to find out
Happy lunar new year to you and your family!
Hey bro, same to you! Happy New Year, lots of joy & happiness for you & family.
It's a pity the Edifice line wasn't well marketed.
Same sentiments.
I got the exact same model from City Chain last year, bought it on a whim. Torn between this and the new presage gmt. I guess if you have yet to get a taste of the 5KX GMT and want something new in terms of colourway and a better bracelet, it fits me like a gem! Of course when sale comes, the older models have way better discounts and whatnot.
Nice. Enjoy your watch in good health. 👍
Great review and comparison. I have the Seiko and love it. Own a Tudor BB36 and love that watch too. I think the Seiko is more interesting though.
The newer ones from Seiko are very interesting as well SPB453. I may try to loan in one for review and comparison.
I just received this watch a week ago. I ordered it because its a panda, solar, sapphire, good lume, affordable price, with GOOD SIZE for me, and it will be my first Orient watch. From the site it is said that the watch size is 42.8mm in width. I have 7.3 inch wrist size so, I said it is perfect for me so I ordered it. But, to my dismay when it arrived, there's no way that this is 42.8mm in width!! It looks small on my wrist, it is smaller than my Seiko ATLAS that I very seldom use because I consider it small for me. I think this watch is 40 to 41mm width at best. The bezel also has "play" going slightly back and forth but that is okay. Thumbs down for the sizing Orient!! If I only knew it was sized smaller in width, I would not bought this watch!!!
Yes, the bezel for this watch is smaller than the case, hence making the watch appear much smaller than the specs suggest. I would think that’s the main draw of this design (the Kamasu/Mako series). I think you’re after the larger diver type of look. So perhaps the M-Force may be what you’re looking for. Otherwise, the Seikos have some rather large dive watches too.
@@AndyinSGThanks for the suggestion friend!
The watch does have solid endlinks. I own the SSK003J1. I did change out the stock clasp for a Marine Master clasp. I love mine it’s definitely still a relevant and a great watch .
Nice to see this one’s got fans! Thank you for sharing. I’m glad that you’re enjoying yours. Wear it in good health.
@ thank you 🙏🏻
I just get mine in Sam’s club $130 , the blue dial
Nice. Congrats!
The term "CasiOak" is a tongue-in-cheek name given to a line of G-Shocks, I think we should keep it for that. I kind of doubt that Casio even intended to copy the AP watch's shape, the original digital G-Shock already had an 8-sided bezel, and when you try to fit an analog dial into that design and try to keep the G-Shock design DNA and not end up with another round watch case you get an octagon. There's not a whole lot else that resembles the Royal Oak, i.e. no bezel screws, and no integrated bracelet.
snk621k1 i can still see on amazon sg but already at 184sgd. i ordered instead in amazon japan for 163sgd shipping by amazon japan inclusive. i saw a review saying that they still managed to swap out the strap with a leather one but they had to cut the middle to 10mm, possible but a hassle if you dont have the equipment for it
Wow, that’s some commitment from you. Enjoy your watch in good health! I wouldn’t recommend cutting the strap to 10mm to fit. Maybe just enjoy the watch as it is on its bracelet.
@@AndyinSG commitment to order from amazon jp? hahaha yes 20 bucks is 20 bucks i can use that to go to the seiko service center at bishan only. but the change of strap is by someone else, props to them and their effort
@@hathor2 Commitment to alter a strap to fit this odd lug. 👍 But seriously, I’m glad you’re enjoying your watch. That’s the most important thing.
@@AndyinSG received today - what a beautiful time piece! i prefer not to alter anything at the moment the metal bracelet isnt cling clangy anyway (sorry for the awful description of the sound low quality bracelet make). will have it resized by either Seiko on Ubi or watchspree also on Ubi
Does west end watches have unique serial number for the watches ?
Hello does West end watches have unique item serial number ? I bought 2 of these and I don't see any specific serial numbers other than model number, let me know please where to find it
Dang
Que precio tiene
Can I change the case of the watch?
Totally agreed with your note about the date window.. I wish if they had it in a gold background at least not white .. Its a gorgeous watch though ❤
Exactly. At least make a matching date wheel. Oh well…
I'm back again. I really think the Edifice line should be the one called CasioOak. I think G Shock brand is just most popular and releases like EFR-S108D and EFS-S570D from the Edifice line always just go unnoticed.
Agree with you. Regardless, these are really nice watches that don’t cost a lot. Good times for us Casio/Gshock/Edifice fans.
The STEELDIVE 6105 Turtle "Captain Willard" that I own is basically the same as this SM (sapphire/NH35/Brush-polished, etc.) but the bezel markers & numbers also have lume. It has C3 green inside as this one, and BGW9 blue on the bezel markers/numbers, and yes...as bright as a Christmas tree, normally fading as hours pass, but basically last all night long!.....
I have this same SM Tuna blue with the rubber for about 4 years. Excellent watch for the sea/beach/boating/pool, and great with polo/tshirts... Yes, the BGW9 lume is as bright as in the video. As normal it fade as hours pass but you're able to read the time in an entire dark room night long....
I actually like this watch a lot. Kinda regret selling it. Guess that’s the thing with this hobby. Buy, cull, rebuy, recull, rebuy, recull.
From where did you bought that GW-B5600MG? Couldn't find it anywhere!
The MG was probably launched 3 years back. I’m guessing you can only find NOS now.
@AndyinSG Oh thanks, btw what's NOS?
@@robertnp9908 New Old Stock.
I believe that the carbon core is carbon fibre in the resin.
Ah… thanks for sharing.
I have the 5610u.. and I really like it. I have been tented to buy the 5600u. But i do not get why is so expensive. So i probably will stick to mine. Maybe one day the 5600u will be cheaper.. but i can't fork what it cost nowdays. And i like the colours on my 5610u.
I hope you get the GW5000U one day. To me I think it’s worth the money. Having said that, the 5610U is also a nice watch. Enjoy!
What a great watch! I have been very impressed with this brand! Thanks for the great video!
Thanks for dropping by!
Sorry bro but i am not paying extra 3400 $ just for 1. Female end links 2. Better refined ring / more precise cuts which can be seen from very close 3. Aluminum bezel 4. 60 clicks
It is bending the index on the dial, this is feature of Seiko presage models very nice and polished inside, I have the not open-heart version
Thanks for sharing!
can you replace the chain with belt
Yes you can.
Always love your videos and glad to see a new post! Just FYI, I think your camera lens is in need of a cleaning.
Thanks for dropping by! 🙏
I really liked the look of this but seeing the excellent review here I wouldn't buy it because it looks too straight on the wrist. I have an amazing citizen BM7108-22L and will stick with it.
I believe Casio Edifice's EFR-S108D deserves the title CasioOak. EFS-S570D model I think is based on that.
Yes, they’re both the same series/lineup. The CasiOak title could have gone either way but I guess most fans out there will regard the GA2100 as the CasiOak.
@@AndyinSG, the watch community I believe missed big time on naming GA-2100 the CasioOak. It should be the EFR-S108D or the featured model.
@ Watch my new comparison video where I share the reasons I think made the GA2100 the CasiOak among the fans.
This Oris is awsome❤!!!
These are amazing, cant find much information on the lug to lug? Is it 55mm?
These were amazing when oversized watches were cool. L2L should be around 56mm.
Does the 5000u change the date to dd/mm?
Yes
@@AndyinSG looking to get this since my last 5610u think it was fake from amazon, or at least had a fake case/strap
@@rm9sbg93zxjzg Oh, I hope you have better luck on Amazoon next time.
Great vid, what is wrist size?
17cm
Hello? Delivery available or not?
Nice video. Thank you. Isn’t cork wood abrasive? Why use it to place a shiny watch on there while you work on it ??! Microfiber is far better.
Where can buy in Singapore?
Buy online.
@AndyinSG but where? The official website is only delivery to ang mor countries..
@ Try ebbay or ammazon. Not sure if this model is still in stock. You can try.
Thank you for making this video! Was helpful in deciding which one I wanted to
Thanks for dropping by. Glad this helped.
Nice, i love gold tone watches.
Takes a very strong man to wear one. All the stares you get… 😹
Thank you for the video. I Qasim not aware of this version of the cocktail time. Looks fantastic in gold. I agree about the date wheel. It should just not exist for this one!
Thanks for dropping by. It’s a nice & fun dial for sure.
You are right with the date 💁🇩🇪
It’s a recurring theme with many brands. Too bad, majority want a date wheel.
Do your homework and then come back!
Its never out of stock. Still available new till today 😅
I’m not sure why you are complaining about the fact that it looks very much like a Rolex when Steinhardt is basically a Rolex homage watch company. That is what they do.
Thanks for unboxing review! But, when the full review will be ready?
In a few weeks. :)
Is it to big for 17-16cm wrist
I think it’s fine. This isn’t a very big watch.
