I didnt realize this watch I have has become somewhat rare and desirable! I just had a sapphire crystal installed last week and started seeing what they go for on eBay. Insane!
I’ve owned the blue, black,and gilt versions of this watch. This gilt version is definitely the best looking, but also the hardest to find. On Reddit, from time to time one will pop up for sale at a reasonable price. It’s good to keep an eye on there!
I still have my Snzh55 that I bought years ago. My first mechanical watch. Still looks cool. Still love to wear it. Its one weakness is the lume. There's not enough of it, so it doesn't glow for very long. I paid 120€ for mine on the metal bracelet (it's the made in Japan model).
I've had my j1 for a few years now. 7s36 inside. I wear it all the time. It kicks ass. They're expensive now though. I don't believe it would be worth the cash folks are asking for them new.
I have the Seiko 5 Sports Black Dial Automatic SNZH55 SNZH55J1 SNZH55J "Fifty-Five Fathoms". I think it's a great watch. Five extra fathoms beyond the Swatch version. I also wear it on an Artem Sailcloth strap.
2:12 Actually. these latest Swatch collab watch can be serviced. It's not sealed. Has a screw down caseback that you can open with a generic common caseback tool. Finding a new movement will be your challenge, since I doubt swatch sells them.
They're listed as hermetically sealed by several publications and looking at the case back itself the depressions look too shallow to interact with a case back tool. Where did you see that they could be opened?
I suspected the notches might just be for show or for looks, so perhaps you're right. A lot of people are saying you're able to open it, but just baseless claims. @@AverageBros

Great watch & some good points made there !! Made a brief review of my old SNZH60/57 recently & can't disagree much
