Description

Black dial. Silver-tone stainless steel case with a black canvas band. Automatic movement. 30 meters / 100 feet water resistance. Fixed bezel. Tang clasp. Case size 37 mm x 11 mm. Seiko SNK809 Seiko 5 Watch. The Seiko 5 Men's Automatic Black Strap Black Dial Watch is a stylish timepiece with the convenience of automatic movement. A uniquely designed, black dial features white Arabic numbers marking the hours on an inner circle and the minutes on an outer circle, while small, bar indexes encircle the dial on an outside minute track. Silver-tone hands with luminous fill make it easy to tell time day or night, and the slim second hand is detailed with a red accent. For added convenience, a day and date display are set at three o'clock. The polished stainless steel case extends to meet the black nylon strap, which wraps comfortably around the wrist and fastens with a traditional buckle. Water resistant to 30 feet (100 meters), this high-performance watch is perfect for everyday wear.This is an automatic mechanical watch. Automatic watches do not operate on batteries, instead, they are powered automatically by the movement of the wearer’s arm. If the main spring in your automatic watch is not wound sufficiently, timekeeping may become less accurate. In order to maintain accuracy, wear the watch for 8 hours or more per day, or manually wind the main spring by turning the crown. When not in use, automatic watches may be kept charged with an automatic watch winder – a watch storage unit which may be purchased separately.

Took a few tries and two different vendors to finally get my hands on 2 that are keepers. Two of four sent to me had cosmetic flaws-one blemished face, inside the glass, the other a blemished case, but once you get a cosmetically "good" one sent to you, this watch is simply beautiful. Very happy with both. Japanese eye for detail amazes me, especially for a watch this inexpensive. I'll consider the two blem. watches flukes and just concentrate on the two "good" ones. Build quality is excellent. Does my heart glad to know at least some companies still have their minds focused on quality at all price levels. After a week, neither has lost a minute. Second hand is tricky to sync, but even a few seconds behind my radio-synchronized wall clock, both keep good time. Like I said, glad I bought two. It's easy wearing and as light as a similar sized quartz watch. I bought this as a daily wearer in place of a much heavier swiss stainless mechanical monster I own. The time adjustment knob is a little small for my fingers, but that's not special to this watch. Had the same trouble with other brands too. I expect to enjoy many happy years with these watches. I'de heard of Seiko, but never heard of Seiko 5 before this, glad I came across the watch. The return process on the blems was painless, to Amazon's credit. Heard rumors that there are a lot of fakes being sold on the internet so I did some research. (Who fakes a $60 watch?!? geez..) Apparently this watch is grey market in the US, so any one you buy will have a warranty card that is not filled out because it was not sold by an authorized Seiko dealer, so be warned. I don't expect warranty trouble, so I am not very worried. If I do, I'll take it to Seiko and pay the cash, or just buy another if repairs cost more than ~$40.00. Going by the tag on the band, Seiko's suggested retail price for this watch is $185.00 so Amazon's quite a bargain. In the future, I will buy directly from amazon, not one of their storefront vendors. The first order I placed was from an amazon vendor who had the watch to me strangely fast, but with no paperwork and in a generic plastic box, not the blue Seiko box. Watch was a blem so I sent it back, but the swapmeet style packaging and lack of papers disappointed me. I associate that with Ebay and stay away from Ebay for that exact reason. I also have reason to believe that the watch was not as new as the seller claimed- after all, where was the original packing that a "new" watch comes in? How would it go missing? That was the only watch of the 4 that came packed that way. All others had the blue box and all docs included. So if someone out there has watch #141073 (case ser.#) then you got MY old one.. at least one that was sent to me and returned, never worn, as a blem. That vendor also charged a new price for something that smelled a bit fishy. To my mind, new-looking watch, minus factory packing, minus factory docs, does not equal the going price minus two bucks. Need to drive the cheezeball vendors back to ebay from whence they came. Ate the shipping on that one. Amazon did hold up their end honorably in all cases. No complaints there. And I do love the watches at the end of the day. If you are on the fence about this watch, then buy it. Great bang for the buck, near swiss attention to detail & fit and finish, well above and beyond the call of duty for a watch at this price. Keep up the good work Seiko. The quality is of the band is good, considering the price range. Seen worse, but not many better. When this band wears out, I will buy another just like it from Seiko. Let that be the final judgement on my views of the quality of the band. Heard some say the watch is a bit small for big manly wrists. On that point, I dunno. I think it's sized to look normal on the wrists of 95% of men. Some guys have big wrists.. ok, maybe not the watch for you if you are in that 5%. We also live in an era where absurdly large watches have become the norm, so that may be skewing attitudes and perceptions a bit. I find the size of the face "just right" and I consider my wrists normal for a 6' + tall caucasian adult male. ... show more

  • Super Seiko 5
After reading all the Amazon and internet reviews on this watch I finally pulled the trigger and purchased it for $63 from Amazon. I've had the watch for four weeks and would like to share my personal thoughts and experiences on the 809. This is a great looking watch. I wish there was a nicer picture, since it does not do any justice to the looks. Some folks aren't crazy about the minute markings (5, 10, 15) on the dial, but I like it because it's different than others that have the typical 24 hour (13, 14, 15) markings. The fabric strap is a definite weakness of the watch. It felt rather itchy to me to wear. After two weeks of wearing it, I broke down and bought a brown leather alligator style strap. The brown strap contrasts with the black dial really dresses up this watch pop. Now it looks like I spent hundreds of dollars on this watch. I think a black leather strap and even a NATO style strap with black and a grey stripe would complement this watch as well. This is my first automatic watch. I purchased it knowing full well that automatic watches are not for everyone. I also realize that automatics require more care and feeding than a quartz watch and most people will still prefer a quartz movement. Accuracy of automatics is always a discussion topic and the 809 is no exception. I typically wear this watch for about 12 hours and lose 4 seconds during this period; so theoretically, it loses 8 seconds/day. This is not bad for a watch that's not certified by the COSC since COSC certified watches are only good for -4/+6 seconds day. I think some people fail to remember that there are 86,400 seconds in a day and relatively speaking a watch that is off as much as plus or minus 15 seconds a day is still pretty accurate. If you are still concerned about the watch being fast or slow, I also found a way to regulate this watch. Since this watch tends to lose time for me, I place it on my dresser, either dial side up or dial side down depending on how much time I need it to speed up. By doing this I can gain 2-4 seconds overnight. If you want to slow down your watch you can place it vertically (using the watch band to support it) with either the crown up or down or even with the crown on the left side if you need to lose more seconds. You can experiment with these different positions and see what works best for you. Power reserve is another topic that is often discussed about this watch. Depending on what you read, the 7S26 movement has a power reserve of 38-42 hours. While you cannot manually wind this watch with the crown, you can still do it by holding the watch horizontally with your thumb and fore finger and make a flicking action with your wrist like you are dealing a deck of cards. The motion doesn't have to be very hard, but should be strong enough that you either hear or feel a whirring motion. You cannot over wind automatic watches. For me, if I do this for five minutes, the watch is fully wound. I also find that winding the watch in this manner for 5 minutes can also speed it up by as much as 8 seconds. I did check the power reserve on this watch. After fully winding it and leaving it on my dresser, it worked for 45 hours and 23 minutes! That's pretty awesome with this watch. If you are getting less than the 38-42 hour power reserve, the watch has not been fully wound or you have a defective watch. So far I feel extremely lucky that I got a good working 809. I am thoroughly enjoying it and will definitely keep it. It's been an inexpensive way to experience owning an automatic watch. I highly recommend buying this watch! ... show more
