Seiko SNKN37 Men's Stainless Steel Brown Leather Band Blue Dial Smart Watch

まず大きさのインパクトが強いので目立ちます。四角いケースと青いサンレイ仕上げのダイヤルの美しさ、インデックスのデザインが相まって、とても、とてもカッコいいです。 海外専用モデルなので逆輸入品でしか手に入りませんが、国内の販売者から購入すれば日本語の説明書や独自の保証を付けてくれる所もあります。 キャリバーは7S26なので手巻きとハック機能はありません。自分は毎日使うわけではないので困りませんが、頻繁に使う人は手巻き機能がないことが不便だと思います。 海外製キャリバーですが、日差+3~5秒で動いて、他に持っているグランドセイコーより正確です。 付属のベルトは厚手の牛革でしっかりしていますが、私はベルトを替えて楽しんでいます。 ラグ幅は24ミリで、バネ棒はラグの穴を突いて外すタイプです。 デザインがとても気に入っていて、意味もなく着けては眺めています。20000円ちょっとで買えるなんて安すぎると思います。

I like this watch. Given the price, it's a bargain. It's often been said that Seiko is the best non-Swiss watch manufacturer out there. This watch is a great example of why many think that. But, you have to keep expectations realistic, and understand this is not a hand assembled in Japan Grand Seiko model. This is a fun, casual, budget Seiko. The movement is a Malaysian assembled 7S26C movement, not one made in Japan, and the case is not made in Japan, either. Nowhere does the watch say "made in Japan", so I assume it's not. Seiko has done a lot of offshore manufacturing of their budget models, and appear to be doing it without sacrificing quality. But, even without the "made in Japan" cachet, this is a good quality Japanese designed watch, with the movement designed in-house by Seiko, and manufactured by them, albeit not in Japan. The 7S26C does have some quirks, though, which are common in older Japanese watch movement designs, but may seem strange to people accustomed to Swiss, or even Chinese produced movements. The oddest thing is the lack of hand winding. To simplify the design, the ability to wind the watch through the crown is absent. It's an automatic, and only an automatic. This means if it runs down you have to do the "Seiko shuffle" and rock it back and forth a bit to get it going. The next thing you find on vintage or budget Seikos is that there's no hacking function. "Hacking" is then the watch movement stops when the crown is pulled out to set the time to within a second. The 7S26C does not do that, either. So, you can't set it to an absolutely accurate time. Hacking didn't become common of Swiss watches until the late 1950s, so I'm accustomed to this oddity from vintage Swiss watches. So those are two things about the function that you should know. It's automatic winding only, and it lacks a hacking function. Seiko is starting to use movements with manual and automation winding, plus hacking, in a lot of their lower priced mechanical watches now, but this one is not one of them. I actually think these sort of anachronistic shortcomings are a good fit for the retro design, since a 60s or early 70s vintage mechanical Seiko would also lack those two functions. The case is large but feels remarkably small on the wrist. A lot of this is due to it being fairly thin for the diameter, and having a flush mounted crystal. It's very comfortable despite the size, and just heavy enough to feel solid and substantial without feeling like a boat anchor. The polished lugs and grained body of the case provide a nice subtle contrast that delineates the cushion design, and I also like the through-holes on the lugs for the spring bars, which is another nice retro detail to the design. The exhibition back on the case shows the rather plain movement, but I like this modern touch, even with a basic workhorse movement like this. One element that is plainly visible is the Seiko "magic lever" type reverser for the winding system. It's an elegant bit of simplified and economical design which Seiko invented, and it's nice to see it clearly in operation. The dial is fantastic. The polished applied indicies on the chapter ring are not mirror flat on top, as often seen on high end watches, but are instead somewhat wavy and soft edged, which really fits the retro look and budget price point. Perfectly flat mirror finished indicies would look too austere for such a casual design. The microprinting on the inner dial is crisp and precise. The deep blue sunburst dial finish is very eye-catching, and the crisp step between the chapter ring and the inner dial adds depth. It's a really good dial for the price point, and the details fit the casual retro design well. I've been wearing it constantly for five days now, and have seen no issues with power reserve or accuracy. However, I did put it on a winder and ran it a 1 rpm for about 20 minutes first thing out of the box to develop a good base level of power. Having a good pre-load on the mainspring helps maintain good accuracy. With a watch which can be hand wound, this is simple to do, but with an automatic only movement, it's not so easy. I'd really recommend giving this watch a good initial winding via rotation before setting it and wearing it. Dont just wobble it barely enough to get it running, and then wear it. A good initial build up of power reserve will help ensure accuracy, and keep it from running down overnight. Take the time to set it up properly, and you'll be rewarded with the famous Seiko reliability, don't and you may find it losing whole minutes because it's hitting the bottom of the power reserves intermittently. Overall, this is a great budget automatic watch, one with good fit and finish, a great casual design, and even functional quirks that are pure 60s/70s Japanese watch.

I recently heard somebody say "Nobody asks if a Seiko is fake." This was said as a complement. A Seiko is a Seiko - not a wannabe Rolex. With their Recraft serries, Seiko has brought out a line of big, bold, original designs that look like themselves; not like a copy. First of all, this is a big watch. I have an 8 1/2 inch wrist and it looks good on it. It has a bit of heft, given the large stainless steel case, but not distractingly so, and I haven't found that I've been banging it into door jambs and counters. The medium brown calf leather strap, deep blue dial and bold chrome numbers complement each other, making for a striking, sharp appearance. The inner dial with index markers and date window is a circle recessed by a bout 1 mm below the outer circle with the numbers. This gives the watch a luxurious look. Although it looks like lume is applied to the dial, this is not the case - it's just white paint. The addition of a display back is a great bonus at this price point. The parts are brushed but not engraved - a good compromise. Catches the light but probably adds only minimal cost. Also reducing cost is the lack of a wind-up feature - no biggie for me. I'd buy this again in a second. Perfect for a big wrist and looks like a much more expensive watch, with a unique design

Klas , dayanıklı, rahat

J'aime beaucoup le look vintage de cette montre. En plus de la qualité Seiko, elle est vraiment très agréable à porter et à regarder. Les finitions sont remarquable. Attention à la réserve de marche qui est de moins de 24h, mais à ce prix là c'est raisonnable. Le seul défaut est pour moi la qualité du verre qui se raye facilement. Je suis très content de mon achat

Very good quality, large watch. No hand wind - you have to shake the watch and then wear it. 40 hour power reserve once fully wound. Strap is acceptable that loosens up with wear. 8 days delivery from USA
