    One of the best watch reviews I ve seen in a while. Measured the case, tried different straps, compared to similar watches. Great work

    FYI the bracelet fits all of the glass box models. It’s like $300ish and I got to try the bracelet with the skipper at my local tag boutique.
    I think it would slap on the reverse panda or the green Dato.
    I REALLY want one too but that price lol… 😭

    Bought this watch in the silver panda dial (SSB452P1) and I also have a 6.5" wrist and this watch fits real well. The bracelet is so rattly and loud, total trash so i swapped it out for a grey leather rally strap and it looks so good🔥🔥🔥. I was considering the 39mm seiko speedtimer but i prefer 40-42mm diameter. And the newer speedtimer (41mm)with the 21mm lug width and price turned me off. So this watch is a super budget friendly alternative that looks great. If only it had lume then it would be near perfect.

    • @TheFuturisticVintage
      @TheFuturisticVintage  Месяц назад +1

      Yea the lack of lume is a bummer. Glad you found this watch and got something you can work with. Thanks for watching!

    @Shadesofwrath Месяц назад +1

    Great review! Quick question: the dial looks almost gray in your video whereas in marketing images it appears stark black. Is it actually truer to how it appears in the video or is that just color grading causing it to appear gray?

  • @pedromesquita8507
    @pedromesquita8507 3 месяца назад +2

    This watch dial in the jomashop seems way darker, like full dark black… totally different from what’s shown here. Any thoughts on this?

    • @TheFuturisticVintage
      @TheFuturisticVintage  3 месяца назад +1

      I was thrown off too when I first got it but Jomashop’s photography kinda sucks across the board so I took it with a grain on salt. Definitely the darker grey hues come out more when the dial is in the light and fades to a darker black in indirect light. Considering the price of the watch vs. its styling, function and quality, I still think it’s a good grab at a great price.

      @@pedromesquita8507 there is a sub-register that only tracks 24hr time. It’s pretty much useless and purely there for “aesthetic”. I personally don’t love them, but I don’t hate them either. I’d love for seiko to go with some bicompax designs for their more affordable watches
