    For me Tissot PRX is the winner. The bracelet is just simply genius

      I've been considering the Damian Lillard PRX but it only comes in I believe a 40mm and I love the comfort of a smaller case.

    The Seiko is a beauty. If watches didn’t have names that watch will be extremely expensive.

    All the people saying anything but Tissot PRX are just being contrarian- the Prx is the highest quality, longest lasting, and most aesthetically pleasing of all these pieces.

    I have and love the gold “Seikonaut”. It does indeed start to fade on the bracelet if you wear it regularly, but to be honest I wouldn’t let that deter anyone because it looks really cool in my humble opinion. I’d liken it to a classic car with some nice patina on the paint. Obviously wear but doesn’t necessarily detract.

    • @stevepapa

      Definitely! Good comparison! Thanks for watch!

    To me the Seiko and Brew look absolutely nuts, I kinda want them now. Honorable mention for inexpensive gold watches are Bulova 97D123 and Bulova 97D108. I don't have either but I might get the all-gold one someday. I currently own Bulova 97D116 and its ok. I don't really wear it that often, and I don't like that the watch is so easy to smudge and shows up on the black noticeably, but I'll try to like it for another couple months.
    Also worth looking into is the Seiko 5 SNXL72, purely because of the grid pattern dial. Great vid.

    I'd go with the Brew Metric - Gold. I've been eyeballing that watch for a while, so it'll eventually end up in my collection. Normally, I'm not at all a gold watch kind of guy, but there is just something about the black dial and more muted gold tone of the Brew that speaks to me. Another that's caught my eye is the Marloe Pacific 55. I just wish that one had a bracelet option, but the leather and gold look great on it.

    Agree. The "it" factor of the seiko.... bought it because I love the way it looks. Dont care about fading, don't wear it that often but really enjoy it when I do...we buy watches because of the overall feeling rather than the specs only.

  • @Psysso
    @Psysso Год назад +1

    The better seiko alternative would be snxl72 for me, more interesting dial motif, more legible with the blacked out hands and also a more classical case design, which doesnt look like a homage. You slap an aftermarket jubilee bracelet on that badboy and you're golden ;)

    I'll always choose tissot over seiko. I just feel the entry seiko's are a little too cheap looking while the tissot's are usually perfect and classy out of the box.

    • @stevepapa

      Yeah the construction quality of the Tissot is top bang for buck. The Seiko does feel a bit cheap in the bracelet.

    I have an Arabic dial Seiko and the bracelet is so cheap. As soon as I can, I’ll be getting a NATO or leather strap for it. A company like Seiko shouldn’t be making bracelets that cheap. All my Citizens have excellent bracelets. The Seiko bracelets remind me of a $50 Casio.

    • @stevepapa
      @stevepapa  9 месяцев назад

      Yeah I guess it depends on the MSRP. I can't complain about the bracelet when you could get this watch new (it's discontinued now) on sale. I get the cost cutting measures but this Seiko has that "it" factor so I can forgive the lackluster bracelet.
