Description

SEIKO 5 - the meaning of the "5" A great marketer had the idea in the 70ies: to be a SEIKO 5, the watch has to have the following 5 (five) attributes (thus the name SEIKO 5): 1. Automatic, 2. Water resistant, 3. Shock resistant, 4. Date, 5. Day. Please note that some SEIKO 5's are in fact SEIKO 4's, if the "Day" function is omitted, then the Caliber 7S25 is used. The only difference to the normally found 7S26 is the omission of the day wheel. Also re-issues of SEIKO 5 Sports often use the 7S36 caliber. Again the 7S36 is similar to the most popular 7S26, yet it features 23 Jewels as opposed to the 21 Jewels in the 7S26. Please note that all these movements beat at a rate of 21'600 bph (beats per hour) or 6 bps (beats per second). As a comparison, an ETA 2824-2 beats at 28'800 bph or 8 bps. A Miyota 82xx beats at 21'600 bph. Why do I mention these three movements? Because they are found in probably 80% of all inexpensive automatic wrist watches. A market share that is huge, yet challenged these days (2006) by an increasing share of inexpensive China Made automatic movements An automatic watch (also called a self-winding watch) is a mechanical watch, typically with a balance wheel escapement, whose mainspring is wound by the motion of the wearer's arm, instead of having to be wound manually every day. Whereas a quartz watch is powered by electricity, a mechanical watch is powered by a mainspring which must be rewound for the watch to keep time.

  • Love this watch!!
One month update: After wearing the watch for a month since writing this review I wanted to update and say that the accuracy seems to have improved. I haven't needed to adjust the time again sonce the first time I had to set it back a minute. Really impressed with the accuracy. For what you pay for this watch. it is a serious bit of kit. Let's start with the bead blasted finish, simply stunning. I wasn't sure how it would present in real life, but I am not disappointed. Some people have criticized that the lug area is not blasted like the rest of the watch and if this was a "real" field watch then that would be a problem, but this is a daily wear watch and the fact that part of it is shiny gives it just a little bling that only catches the light every once in awhile and catches the eye just right. One of the biggest things people tend to dislike in other reviews is the stock strap. Most people seem to think it's crap and I initially thought I would want to change the strap out as well, but I tried wearing it for a little while before changing the strap and now I actually really like the original strap. Again, this is a low price daily wear watch. The stock nylon strap is actually really comfortable, really durable, looks good with the watch and looks like a NATO without adding the extra bulk. I want to let others know though that I intentionally ordered this from Moon_dog because he had the reputation for delivering the goods. The watch arrived in great shape and had the original Seiko warranty card, instructions & hang tag, but the box was not included. Instead I got an after market watch carrier thingy. I was a little disappointed about this, but the included watch carrier box suits my needs better than the original box would have anyway so I am not too upset. If I ever decide to sell the watch I might feel different about it, but I don't think I am going to sell this one. As a buyer though if you are buying from Moon-Dog and having the box is important to you then you should let him know ahead of time. Also as far as accuracy goes, at least on my watch it has been very good. I've been wearing it for 10 days and it has gained about a minute. I can live with that! I've attached pictures showing the "watch box" I received instead of the Seiko box. ... show more

  • 2nd Update on my earlier review
I bought this watch a month ago. So far, I’m very pleased with the accuracy, and it’s soothing to watch the second hand NOT going “tick, tick, tick” like a quartz watch. I’ve had automatic watches before, but it’s been a long time. I’ve not had it in water yet, but with my lifestyle it WILL happen eventually. Great everyday watch. Only negative is the luminescent markings don’t seem to stay luminous for very long after dark. Update - nothing scientific or exact, but my watch has lost about 5 minutes (compared to my IPhone that I used to set the time about a month ago. Seems pretty decent for the price, as I was expecting to gain or lose about a minute per day. Maybe I’m being too generous, but I still really like this watch. 2nd update - after several more months, I’m still pretty satisfied. Very durable, attractive everyday watch. Has stopped twice after very sedentary days of binge watching TV and laying around in the house on some bad weather days. That’s not really any fault of the watch. Still loses around a minute or so per day. Not really unexpected for an automatic watch in this price range I guess, but also seems a little ironic that a much less expensive Timex quartz watch keeps almost perfect time. Overall, I’m happy with the watch, just wish it was more accurate. 3rd update - I still like this watch, but it really doesn’t like when I have sedentary days - it will stop during the night after a day spent lazing around the house. Accuracy seems to be getting worse - I have to reset the time about weekly and I set it to be a few minutes fast. The band is starting to show wear around the hole where I buckle it every morning. My $25 15 year old Timex keeps time almost exact, so if absolute accuracy is your concern - buy a cheap quartz Timex and save yourself some money and aggravation. ... show more

This review has been updated, see below ********************** This little beauty arrived a week ago and so far it's kept great time. Seiko is built to last so I'm confident in making this review a bit early. I've owned a lot of watches, I have the sickness, and some of them are more than a little pricey. I've come to dislike busy faces, subdials and other superfluous nonsense. I want a watch to tell time, that is all, and I want to know it easily at a quick glance. If I have to hold it up to my nose and squint then the watch has failed. This is the most legible watch I've ever owned and I absolutely love it- I'm tempted to buy another one, just in case. Some day it will get a big scratch across that hardlex surface and I'm gonna be so bummed... *********************** Seventeen days. That's how long it took to get its first scratch. Big one, too. Over the next few weeks many more scratches developed some small, some not so small. I have sapphire crystal faced watches that have lasted several years with no scratches at all. Today was the final straw- the corner edge of the glass bumped into a hard surface and chipped. It is a really large and obvious chip, one that I can't pretend doesn't matter. This watch was the Japanese version. After three short months- into the garbage it goes. Shame. I really did love this silly watch. It looks great and was surprisingly accurate. Hey, Seiko- I'd have paid an extra $100 for a sapphire crystal face. My sad recommendation here: avoid. :( ... show more
