    I always love the what the wife said segment. I truly don't understand why these are not regulated to a tighter tolerance. You are right in that it should be expected at that price range. Seiko frustrates me sometimes.

    I just realized how much I like your channel! It's not so much the watches, (I do love them) but it is your presentation! I love how you do the different characters. Particularly the references to the past.

    It is a lovely watch no two ways about it! However for £4,100 I could not justify that. I would much rather have a new Tudor or a used Omega for that money. Thanks for the review.

    That is an absolute stunner, I love everything about it. I even like the strap! That price though… while understandable not a chance. I could fully rebuild my 1957 MGA for that.

    Great review. After actually seeing the steel against the dial and light blue bezel numbering, I have to say it’s a fabulous looking bit of kit. Even with a regulated engine, the price is still way off the mark. But, to the even more hardcore Seiko collectors out there, it’s a nice to have depreciatory add to their collections. 8/10 from me.

    I like these. I ended up with a Seiko MM300, because bracelet and silicone strap are both included, plus they're a steal now with the weak yen

    Agree, I love Seiko (as so many of us do), love the look, nice movement but not the best, especially at this price point. At this hefty a price there are A LOT of options from A LOT of brands with equal heritage and (most) are COSC certified. We know Seiko builds some incredible watches and this one doesn't disappoint, but I would be hard pressed to lay down my hard earned cash for this one.

    Just found your channel and loving your presentation style mate. Love the look of the SLA055 but have just gone for the SPB325 for a similar look at a quarter of the price. Keep the great content coming!

    Spot on Russell! Great review, lovely watch, not worth the money unless you have bucket loads. Agree completely ! 👌👍😊

    These are such beautiful watches. Anything from Seiko with the 6R or 8R movement is generally going to be pretty good. Personally for me I'd rather save money and get either the Willard or an Alpinist. I bought myself a Seiko Alpinist SPB155 and so far enjoying it for the most part. Love the fact Seiko makes dive watches for people with small wrists.

    Just pulled the trigger on a grand Seiko diver , 9f quartz ,it solves most of the issues especially second hand, I paid 1200 pounds in Japan ,which is a quarter of the price of that thing .better finishing and runs at 5 seconds per year accuracy .......job done

    Love the reviews, keeping the price to the end on the pricey ones 👍👍. I’m guilty of turning off if they’re out of my league 😔. Seikostu says keep going, stay safe. 🍺.

    Great review as always Russell, I had already seen this watch and I also think it's over priced but that being said it's still a fantastic looking watch with a top movement but for the price I would be looking at a Tudor or the new longines Diver with the new 5hz movement in it, keep them review coming buddy 👍

    It's a lovely piece for sure but if I put a chocolate bar strap on the spb187 you would have to get pretty close to tell the difference.

    Just now catching up on my RUclips consumption. Nice video and I understand your point about the unregulated movement. To the comments regarding COSC certification, COSC only certifies "Swiss made" movements.

    Hi Russell, I own a seiko sla043, the 62mas , with the blue seconds hand. At 40mm it's a great size for most people. The movement should be regulated, but it's still essentially a grand seiko movement. The sla 043, is a gorgeous watch, and just as well made as any omega in this 4k price point. I got mine used but mint so nearly half price. At half price it's easily worth the money imho.
