      100%. If a collector doesn't have at least one Seiko in their collection, they aren't really living, or they may be a sob. 😂

    My favorite by far is the SRPE51. Dressy enough to wear out, but casual enough to wear everyday with shorts/jeans and a tshirt. Dark grey dial goes with everything. Incredible everyday watch.

    I just bought my first Seiko 5 sports (SRPD53) along with a King Samurai (SRPE37) using your website for the first time last week, Teddy. I couldn't be more happy with both the watches as well as your website and the shipping and packaging. You definitely earned a repeat customer in me!

    Fantastic overview of the Seiko 5 watch collection! I love how you and your team are coming up with these great and necessary videos especially for us beginners.
    I'm expecting my Seiko Field SRPG27 prominently showcased in the beginning of that section of the video this week that I purchased from your website! I have a Seiko Presage which I love and looks gorgeous/classy especially when dressed up. But this time, I wanted something still dressy but more utilitarian in usage. I love the big numerals and vintage-vibe of the SRPG27. I wanted to be able to look at the watch and know instantly what time it is and not have to think about which dot or marker is the 1 or 2 numeral. Which is why I chose it BARELY over the SRPE53. Which I may also get further down the road. It's a simple, sleek and classy looking watch.
    It's so nice that you can get a really solid and lovely watch for a reasonable price. Keep them coming Seiko!

  • @stevepanda1716
    @stevepanda1716 Месяц назад +174

    I enjoyed the video. I almost always do. But I wish you wouldn’t refer to watches like these as gateways, entry level, attainable, etc. This is quite pejorative. These are beautiful, full-function watches that serve many as daily professional and sports wear, and even as grail watches. These aren’t necessarily second choices, but rather smart choices. Not everyone is buying one of these while dreaming of buying a Rolex. Please accept this food for thought, rather than criticism.

    • @albertsmith9315
      @albertsmith9315 Месяц назад +21

      @lonewolfemcquade8133 Месяц назад +27

      They are entry-level though. Why does that term bother you. Some Seikos are $150, $200 bucks that's entry-level. No matter how you want to spin it. There's no fancy way of saying affordable or entry-level

    I absolutely fall in love to this brand. It start with Seiko Presage Cocktail Time SRPJ17J1 (The Irish Coffee). And now I have more than 5 pieces of Seiko after 2 years. From old Seiko 5 7009-875A to a new Seiko 5's. I love them a lot. Maybe once I will buy something with Swiss movement. But I think Im still so young to buy something like that :D (Im just 35 y.o.) Maybe some Hamilton Khaki. But my heart still beats just for Seiko. And after this video I knew what I need to buy next :D I definitly need SRPK87. Love that design a lot. Thanks mr. Teddy for your videos, you open my eyes.

    I have over 35 Seiko 5 watches, many shown in this video. If they were not worth it to me, I'd have way fewer, but I like them.
    One point that is always made in comments when Seiko is discussed it the "inferior" hardlex chrystal. I wear my watches daily, doing real world things and never baby them. You can examine every one of my watches with a high power magnifying glass and you won't see a mark. If hardlex is so much a deal breaker, I haven't seen evidence in my collection. Of course YMMV.

    • @blackwell68
      @blackwell68 Месяц назад +1

      I work heavy construction and after years of use, with some small scratches. I decided to 'upgrade' to sapphire. Lasted a year with no scratches, then shattered one day. I'm back Hardlex, and I am happy.

I knew it also, and as I was in the store I decided to not buy this watch because of that. I would really appreciate if the Teddy’s Team would give a Feedback to Seiko to update this watch. Then it would be a no-brainer!
