That blue on blue strap Seiko, wow. I'm not a watch aficionado, far from it. I used to be a wearable user (Fitbit, Pebble Classic, Asus Zenwatch, Samsung Gear S2) but I got fed up with decreasing battery life, confused industry path, and awfully expensive to replace the devices. I was browsing around and by accident I found out about Seiko 5 and I see a beautifully designed and made watch that costs a fraction of the wearables I bought, really something that threw me off. I'm going to buy that blue on blue combo, thanks for the video, you got a subscriber.
Wow, Michael! Thanks a lot! I appreciate that and I hope you like the watch!
Well, I have to jump some hoops to buy it. That blue SNKL07 only available from Singapore and the Bradystrap is from US. I try to avoid importing stuff as our custom is notoriously bad... But that blue combo... Gosh... Probably worth the hassle. I'd probably go buy available Seiko 5 locally and order the blue combo for my Father's birthday gift.
I hope it all comes through smoothly! Cheers!
I agree, it's beautiful, I really love that shade of blue and it's so nice when the color of the strap emphasizes and matches with the dial. I also love a bit brighter royal blue, saw a very nice one (2206-0490) on Ebay. My mother's Seiko 5 2206 (which became mine) is fully silver, even the dial), that's a nice one too.
dunno if anyone gives a damn but if you are stoned like me atm you can stream all of the new series on instaflixxer. I've been watching with my gf for the last couple of weeks xD
That leather strap made a huge difference to the seiko watch
lol. Yes!
Ruthless Bone why do they only sell them with bracelets? it's so much better with the leather!
Will John Those watches are meant to last alot, leather needs to replaced after 2-3 years depends hiw much you wear it
JaCk No the bracelets are actually cheaply made that’s why many get a leather strap and leather never needs to be replaced it looks better the older it gets
@@minitwatch Hey can anyone tell me where I can find a good leather strap for my Seiko SNKA05K1
This is what I learnt from this video. When playing with my nubby nub, I must stick it in the hole and tug it back, and when it gets sticky, give it a wipe of justice. Got it. 😁👍🏻
Bahahahaha! Best comment ever.
Thank you for exposing me to more watches I want to buy. Jerk.
Oops! lol
hyperchord I
4:05 omg that looks amazing for the price?!?! A good strap can change the watch
The two blue straps made the watches. Brilliant. Seiko should hire you.
:D thanks!
Man, you hit home runs on all of these changes. What impressed me most is that I wouldn't have changed any of them myself, but when I saw what you did....boom! Thank you.
Your thinking out loud, nervous laughter, and made up names for things is hysterical! I subscribed because of it. Vey down to Earth video. Vey enjoyable.
Awesome vid. I have 3 of these Seiko 5s, and just ordered one of those watch tool kits to swap out straps. The SNZH53K1 rocks for the money.
Ken Worsley could u pls let me know the present prices of the 3 seiko 5's that u have thank you
Just the prices you can get grey market online bro.
What size strap goes on the seiko 5?
It is amazing what a nice leather strap can do for a watch. I put an old leather strap from an old Seiko on my Seiko 5, and it looks killer.
Woah, the snkk87 with that dark brown strap😍😍 i’m in love with that combination
Those blue Seiko's were truely wonderful, good job!
Thanks, Starky!
You have such amazing charisma thumbs up even without finishing the video
Masterful job of transforming that first Seiko 5. Unbelievable. You made that watch 500% better, with a simple strap swap.
They're all nice... It really looks GOOD...
Curt, you should be doing more watches-straps combinations videos. I find this video an extremely good and useful reference especially when one may think about buying a watch and wonders what strap would best fit.
so much class with such little money spent. what a beautiful hobby.
My SNKE53K1 comes alive after changing to a brown leather strap. Amazing quality at such a good price.
Absolutely love the blue on blue
Love - love the mods!!!! You’re mods made me addicted to seiko 5s👍👍👍👍👍😅😅
goodness.. you made me love watches.. I think i'm gonna start collecting!
Sweet!!! I love this!
The best review for Seiko models!
omg! it's "minit watch" i was thinking your channel was called "Mini Twat CH" lmao sorry
Francis Caina lol what? I thought it's "mini-watch" :|
Looks good imo with the dark brown
SNKK87 looks awesome to me. With that dark brown strap it looks almost like a luxury watch.
the white stitching really completes the look 🔥
Omg that blue strap combo....
Which one?
@@minitwatch know im late to the Party, but really need to know the reference numbers, especially for the third one
Don't feel bad about buying the same watch! I've done that too! Early in my watch collecting 'career', I developed a taste for Tag Heuer (and Heuer pre Tag ones too!). Fleabay before snipe programs was easy for many of us to buy things at a discount by manual sniping, and sometimes a price was just too good to pass up. I did the same; I put a different snazzy Monaco style band and rose gold bezel on my duplicate 2000 Exclusive black face series and it looked like a very different watch!
the two blue dials look amazing
They really do!
The brown strap on the Seiko looks really good.
Leather strap first is very nice ! I like it !
Was fortunate to get a SNKK11 for under 60 usd, tried on the default bracelet that came with it and it didn't feel great. Remembered this video and opted for a blue leather strap.
The blue leather strap on blue dial = as kids these days say... is bae.
Great! I'm glad to see this. Hmm, I might have to get that SNKK11. I really like that dial.
minitwatch not pulling your leg but i did get the snzh53 , went a brown leather strap this time since i already have thr blue on blue. More of these kinds of vids man! :)
Nice! I will be making more of these kinds of videos. I shall call it "How to make your Seiko 5 Look Better With Simple Things...2" :p
Quick-Release straps...THE BEST.
I'm gonna need that blue/white strap! Great video!
I really liked that first blue strap.
All those 5's came out looking AWESOME! Just subscribed to your channel!!
Show a perforated congac....on silver dial... With gold arms....meow!!!!love Seiko artistry...number one!!!!....
Nice video, I like it. A have seiko 5 automatic, white dial and want to change bracelet, in brown :)
Man this guy can entertain himself for hours lol
loved it......make more of these videos....i love to mix and match the straps around my watches....doesnt matter if its a long video...thx man
I will :)
I'm actually considering picking up the SNKK87 just to throw a dark brown strap on it.
It just looks amazing.
Dude you are fucking hilarious! I'm buying that blue Seiko my god that looks good. I may get it for my brother as a gift in November.
Hah! Thanks! Did you end up getting it?
Phuck me dead I want that dark brown strap with the white stitching, someone find it for my lazy ass.

Seiko 5 has such a great value for money. Such a lot of bang per buck. Throw a couple hundred dollars on my seiko sarz003, and change its strap (due to cheap feel like bracelet), and it easily becomes my favorite watch. Forget the Swiss brand, this is the watch, you can mix and match and it will make you feel amazed on how many possibilities and good combination you can make, without breaking your piggy bank.
Indeed! That 003 sure is a beauty! I LOVE that second hand.
hes soo happy with himself
you have good taste in straps
Great job.!!!!
The first strap cleared my skin
Great video, I never thought of changing watch straps for leather ones
very nice, I like especially the dark brown and the first blue one!
Indeed! So many great combinations for such a low price!
Wow, impressive. I am also a watch collector, and have several Seiko watches. But I don't have any Seiko 5's because I never liked their cheap metal bands. Now that I know how good the Seiko 5's look on a nice leather strap, think I'll get me one soon. They're very affordable for an automatic watch. Good watch videos here, thanks for making them.
Oh yes yes! I love these super affordable little gems!
Witch one did you and up buying?
Awesome straps selection!!!
Those two blue straps are gorgeous!
yes yes!
that Brady trap was superb!👍🔥
It really is!
Nice strap choices, the watches look great on them. Your videos are always entertaining Keep up the good work.
Thanks, Khanh! I appreciate it!
Very helpful. Hadn't considered extra bands until watching.
Excellent! I'm glad!
Beautiful transformation. Can you please tell me where I can buy the dark brown leather strap? I also have a small wrist.
Love the work man.The first one looks gorgeus.I am getting one after this :)
Well better is a matter of personal preference. I can understand wanting to mod a Seiko 5, especially replacing that Hardplex mineral glass crystal with a sapphire crystal but, if you're going to make it noticebly not a Seiko why not just build a bespoke watch from a Seiko NH35 or NH36 mechanism or even one of the Swiss ETA mechanisms. Suitable cases and crystals are easy to aquire and you can have dial faces custom printed. You could engrave your name and manufacture date on the caseback and give it a serial number of 1 or follow the old Seiko tradition of envofing the date of manufacture into the furst few characters of the serisl number and then have the last four numbers be the unique number for the month's production. Basically, if you're going to mod it, you might as well just custom build it altogether.
Great vids, I love Seiko 5s, top quality for the money and you have just shown what a good set of different straps/ bands can do for a timepiece!
Thanks Robert! I am wearing one right now. They are great for not worrying about yet still having some mechanical class :)
Love your videos Dude! So positive! Thank you!
Still very good info on this watch.👍🏼
Where did you buy the seiko snkl07? I searched for it but can’t find a shop that sells it bcs it’s not in store?
What can be done to a 7009-8810 movement? Skeleton back? Chrystal? Red second hand a Arabic numbered dial ?
rx100 is a good camera. the current version is amazing too.
Thank you for the great content 👍
Your the coolest!!!
Send me that blue Brady. Would fit my wrist much better!
hah! it probably would :p
how to make seiko upgrade that old non handwinding movement would put a smile on my face. Even my $60 Vostok Amphibia handwind.
The Seiko Snxl72 is gold. Would any other strap look better on the watch?
Nice!!!
Love your video's man!👍👍
Would've been great to see how you got those pins out...
yeah its what im looking on youtube for atm
Just use the bracelet from your SKX013 because you also like that.😂
I agree with Michael, that blue strap Seiko is "wow". Does Hadley Roma make a blue leather strap and would you recommend it. The Bradley strap is gorgeous but like you I have a small wrist and the HR should fit me better.Thanks for your help!
Which Seiko 5 is the best looking?? I can't choose ffs.
That’s why they’re cheap so you can buy them alllll
Snkl23
I just assumed straps were standard in length... good to know.
There are all kinds of sizes. Short, Standard and XL. The actual sizes between the three fluctuate between manufacturers. There's no actual standard as far as I know. I get quite frustrated by this!
*that's why NATOs tend to be good, cause they're usually a fairly standard length and that's easily adjustable cause they have lots of holes. Leather NATOs look nice imo
So nice !
For the seiko 5 grey face what color leather strap I should get
Looks good, especially that blue strap, will order one soon, I do the same with my watches
Excellent!
4:10 looks great
Your still awake at 3AM? You sound just like me.. 3:55AM.
Yeeeeep. I work nights so this is normal for me :p
Dude, when you revealed the Snkk87 on the hadley roma, I paused the video, and bought it lol I can't wait to get t!
Btw, If you go to Holben's watch bands they have some of the Hadley Roma MS834 straps!
Hah nice! Do you like it? And thanks for the link! Bookmarked!
the second watch is perfect, i have a SNK803 watch, which color of strap should i change?plz give me an advise.
Do you have a how to polish video? Do you leave the strap/bracelet on or do you remove and then polish?
Hey Kirk, have you had any issues with the blue brady strap splitting at the holes? I'm so keen to get this but i've read about quality issues with the brady straps. Your video has put on a journey to get the blue seiko and strap it looks absolutely incredible.
thankkkkssss!! by the way please do a state of the collection
You're welcome and naaah man. I feel uncomfortable doing that :p
good one
looks very nice...better used the leather strap than steel...the last seiko watch which have a rotating bezel better with the stainless steel bracelet...
do you know which size band is on the seiko 5 ...i think mine said 19.5 so not sure if i should get a 19 or 20mm
Nubby-nub is the technical term?
Im watching this at 2:36am hahaha
Hehe, nice! #nightowls
Awesome! Have you reviewed the SNKL43? Blue dial with beautiful hands!
Where do you get your straps man? They look real good. Have loved every strap change on your vids. Even bought my dad a Seiko SNKM63 and changed to a brown leather strap like the one you did.
oh wait. I see the links already haha
Excellent! That's a great choice. Did he like it?
Yeah, it wasn't the best pair of straps I could find at the location I was in and would honestly get a better pair. But we both agreed it was better than the bracelet it came with
Can I get the information on that brown strap I love it
Where do you buy quality straps?
I always thought that Seiko 5s had crown at 4 o clock which I really didn't quite fancy. Crowns at 3 o clock really appeals more to me. Are those Seiko 5s still available ?
Hey can anyone tell me where I can find a good leather strap for my Seiko SNKA05K1
What is the width of the HR band for the SNKK87? There are so many different answers, it makes me confused.
You know what they say about "small wrists?" They say, "a link can be removed for a better fit." And ain't that the truth!
