What you're reviewing is on my wrist! After having it a month I have to say its now my favourite daily watch. When I put on some of my more pricier pieces to go out I feel like I'm missing my 5 GMT!
@@igorz.3972 I went with black, wear it everyday just goes with anything. Before that my daily was a blue seiko 5 sport which i felt didnt go with many things. I think the real one is the choice between orange or black. orange looks amazing.
I guess you figured out why half the bezel surface is diffused .... of course it works with the gmt function to show day time and night time , the diffused section being day time and shiny is night time.
Crafter Blue makes an SKX/Seiko 5 vulcanized rubber strap that would look great on this watch. I have one of theirs on my King Turtle, and it's not left the watch since I put it on over a year ago. It's not cheap, but also not crazy expensive. I think it's worth it though. Bonus: That sweet vanilla scent. If you've not smelled your watch strap before, you just might with one of those.
I bought the “blueberry” version a few weeks ago, love it! Solid watch for the price (especially if you can find a cheeky discount code 😉). I thought I was going to change out the bracelet straight away but it has quickly grown on me.
Just subbed. I got a blue colorway of this watch, the AD couldn't discount a Grand Seiko Quartz 60th Anniv. Edition so he threw in the Seiko 5 GMT. Didn't have to pay sales tax, VAT for you and shipped free to me. The 5 gmt surprised me, far better than I thought, the bracelet isn't bad. Black looks good, maybe should have went that way, but have a few black watches. 7.5 inch wrist so wears well. This is a good watch to wear if going to a concert, or going to the beach etc... Yes there are better, but this is fine. Might give it to my son in law. Great review. Good for those who's budget is there abouts $500 or pounds.
I didn't bother watching the full video coz I already bought it at a good discount truly bang for buck! 😅😆 So glad I got the matt black/grey instead of the typical blue (batman wannabe) 🤣🤣🤣
Nice video, could be my next watch but needs a nato strap for me. Seiko on the wrist for me a Prospex SNE435 PADI the one with a red Minute hand. no sweeping hand though as it’s the solar. good fit on a small wrist
My experience with this watch was that its hardlex glass is easy to have a scratch. I changed it with sapphire for about 50 dollar, now I feel more confident when I wear it.
I don’t know buddy, the perfect holiday watch needs to be just that, it needs to do everything. The Citizen Fugu with screw down case back and crown, 200m ISO diver! For £395 that’s a killer
This Seiko SSK001 could have been a great watch and a fantastic value if it did not have a major fault. Its major huge fault is that its poor bezel turn very easily, it does not have a ratcheted stops, so therefore it keeps rotating, turning, very easily and this of course messes up our GMT settings. Shame on Seiko's engineers and designers for this unforgivable mistake. I just bought this model and had to return it after just one day of use because of this huge weakness. Shame on Seiko for messing up a good watch.
I really, really dislike that bracelet. The clasp looks pressed. Why would Seiko pair a nice GMT with such an inferior bracelet. Seiko needs to wake up!!
I think the Seiko 5 GMT Watches are a real good deal for this price, but I don´t like the Cyclops. Will I buy one? I don´t think so. Wristcheck: Hamilton Khaki Field Titanium 39 mm
I like the look and how light is wears. Sometimes I think it could be a little more readable (I got the black dial) but that's the price for that darker look. Thank you for showing this watch in your some weeks ago.
For half the price you can get a Devosa GMT which has an accuracy just as good and in my experience of wearing it almost every day for 2.5 years it is very robust. It can be obtained in white or black dial but no cyclops lens . I have Tissot, Seiko, Brathwait watches also
Really tempted by this ..black grape or blueberry …cant decide!
i just bought this exact Seiko with the black dial and could not be happier with it

Incredible choice!
Which dial color you've got, I can't decide between blue and black

So a SKX Crafter Blue won't fit?
@@heysmitty1231 I am certain it will fit. The model number of the SKX and the 5KX straps is the same.
Just bought this strap. Comes in today !
I like this. Not a fan of the cyclips, but a sapphire swap would fix that.

Hook it up with the discount code lol
I got the Blueberry for £320 from H. Samuel using a discount code lol
How is it with the scratches on the glass? I can’t find any long term review
@@Nash_St no scratches on the glass so far.
Thanks mate
How great is this watch?! I love it! 💕💕
It's insane! Can't wait to try the Blueberry 🤌

Bremont Supermarine S300, White dial on NATO strap.. The watch that has summited all 14 Peaks in the world(Everest,K2, etc)..
Didn't know lando norris reviews watches
I think this is the perfect travel watch. It is not so expensive and I don't have to be worried about getting robbed 🤘
It's definitely a brilliant holiday watch!

Where ?

There are tests done by youtubers where it is seen that Hardlex is more resistant than normal mineral glass, for some reason Seiko uses it
this is the watch on my wrist, love everything about this watch it just fits for $500 dollars there is no better watch
Wearing the Tudor Black Bay Bronze grey dial today.
On my wrist: Oris Big Crown Pointer Date Bronze.

Great video guys 👏
Thanks mate!!
Great review man.
What do you think about the Hardlex crystal. Is this piece good for everyday use?
6:54 Ayo berlibur lagi ke bali dan gunakan jam gmt kawan
For this price you can find hundred watches better than this thing very ugly...seiko 5 never
Can you please name a few? I’m looking for a good watch in that price range
Watch is good but bracelet quality is shit
My first watch was a seiko, it was my dad's first watch. So I too have a soft spot for seikos.
I really, really dislike that bracelet. The clasp looks pressed. Why would Seiko pair a nice GMT with such an inferior bracelet. Seiko needs to wake up!!
I purchased this exact Seiko from Amazon for $256.00 (with points) and it was a steal
I think the Seiko 5 GMT Watches are a real good deal for this price, but I don´t like the Cyclops. Will I buy one? I don´t think so.
Wristcheck: Hamilton Khaki Field Titanium 39 mm
How are you finding the new Hamilton?!
I like the look and how light is wears. Sometimes I think it could be a little more readable (I got the black dial) but that's the price for that darker look. Thank you for showing this watch in your some weeks ago.
What size is your wrist?
I bought the blueberry over a week ago. I’m seriously loving this watch 👍🏻
Good choice!
Seiko 5 GMT or TISSOT prx quartz for a first watch.?
Orient Kamasu. Automatic, nice size, 20b and sapphire cristal.
The case is fat.. 42.5mm at the bulge...but the bezel is 40mm. So to your eye it looks smaller than 42.5mm
Curious if you like this more than the khaki field ?
I think they are both very different. Totally different purposes for each but if I had to choose, I do have a soft spot for Hamilton!
Green Seiko Alpinist which runs at +6 s/d I won the lottery with this JDM from Chino Watch.
I am off to Italy with it 200m water resistant, perfect.
On my wrist today, the original OG, moto 360 smartwatch all stainless steel.
Good thing I only paid treefiddy for it.
Thanks for the video, which dial color do you think looks better blue or black?
For half the price you can get a Devosa GMT which has an accuracy just as good and in my experience of wearing it almost every day for 2.5 years it is very robust. It can be obtained in white or black dial but no cyclops lens . I have Tissot, Seiko, Brathwait watches also
Davosa at half the price?? Where?
Seiko GMT is between £350 to £420.
Davosa's start from £750
i tried it, I dont like it. I stick to my 29 yold 7002 pepsi and my skx013
You might sell a few of them
Summer watch, wears a North face puffer jacket in video.
Scotland is never warm lol
Do you prefer this over the prx ?
It's difficult as they are very different. I feel the PRX is more dressy!
sapphire glass?
No, they put hardlex
I thought your name was Chisholm Hunter. Why not run your own watch store?
Why are you wearing a coat? It’s summer time
It's never summer in Scotland 🤣
Quick correction: the watch does NOT have a deployant clasp but a stamped clasp
I miss it to be a divers watch...
