this guy gets it.

these 5s can be found at Kohls where you can usually stack discounts. i recently paid about $170 for the blue one and got $30 in Kohls cash that i didn't use.

Kohl's also has some basic turtles.
Too bad us WIS boys usually get voted down to oblivion here on SD lol

how's the loom on this?
I have blue SRPD on milanese strap. Lume is good compared to other automatic watches I have. Doesn't require much light. Can sometimes see slight hint of lume during day, but not a big deal to me.

Quote from BeigeGiraffe8358 View quoted comment :
This is a pretty good deal for a solid watch. I wasn't aware the SRP line of watches had the same moding community as the discontinued SKX line. You can get it at this price with either the NATO strap as linked or even with a stainless steel bracelet [macys.com] for $188 with free shipping. This is fairly large at 42.5mm so it' not for small wrists. A day/date complication with an automatic movement and a display case back for $188 is a solid if not great deal.
For those wondering about wrist size and this case size, I would say case size wears less than 42.5 mm listed. The bezel curves in making watch seem smaller, and 4 o'clock crown slims it down. I have a ~6.25" wrist and wear it without an issue, despite my hesitation when buying

For the price and value that these watches command...there is one other watch brand that brings even more value and quality that exceeds these...

https://www.aragonwatch.com/ARAGO...198blk.htm

$179 gets you dual color super lume (bezel blue, indices green) real sapphire crystal and reliable workhorse Seiko II NH36 24 jewel movement (screw down with hack) and 660feet of water resistance and a ceramic bezel insert.

The bracelet is leagues better than any Seiko variant for this price range.
No name brand, made who knows where. I'll stick to Seiko, thanks.

Its a niche brand and is 10x better quality than say a fashion brand watch such a MVMNT or Fossil. They use seiko movement on some/all?

But If I was buying one I'd wait for their pretty aggressive BF sales

2003 called and wants its website back. I wouldn't enter in the credit card information of my worst enemy into that website.

It's an EcoDrive. For me, good enough, I don't need automatic time.
In it for the style and most functions.
To be clear, "automatic" refers to an "automatically winding (it's self-winding when you wear it) mechanical watch"

And not "a watch that automatically sets the time for you via radio signals from an atomic clock" etc.

Not sure if that was a misconception here but just wanted to be sure, since some of these terms overlap.

Yes. I'm aware. Wasn't sure which you referring to. Either way, still fine with the Citizen ECO. Thanks for the clarification!

I've wanted one of these since they were announced... I still love my SKX009 (on an ebay shark bracelet with machined clasp) but it's gaining as much as 5min a day now. I'm sure a service/regulation could get it back in-line, but it's hard to justify the cost vs. the price of a 5KX. I prefer the red second hand of the rubber strap version, but the black chapter ring of the NATO version... I guess you can't have it all.

I understand the differences in in water resistance, crown, etc... but it's a desk diver, not something I'd take in the water to begin with.

The Aragon is also compelling, especially at $139 on leather-look silcone (since I'll probably throw it on a distressed brown leather strap or shark bracelet anyway). I'm not sure if I care for the dual-color lume, but I know any time it would actually be visible, it wouldn't matter from an aesthetic standpoint anyway.

You must be disinfo troll or are paid to be this stupid. I just received my 50mm Meteorite dial and bezel Divemaster 4 and just ordered the Divemaster 4 Auto Chrono with a Seiko NE88 34 jewel movement. You might want to learn to read first. The actual watch designer is legit as they come and offers value after value. Seiko is good. Aragon is just better. Don't be mad.
I'm a nobody. Just some guy who bought this seiko deal, who regularly buys quality watches, who is commenting on a Seiko deal.

You're the one randomly pushing some other website, piggybacking off this deal. Why not start your own thread if that watch is such a bargain? Because it would be thumbed down to oblivion. You're only here to post off topic, random non-deals to feed traffic to some watch maker that doesn't have the exposure of a Seiko brand.

Go home. Or stay and participate in the conversations that are occurring. But stop schilling and trolling and trying to change the topic and seeking validation because you bought some random watch off the internet.

I'm sorry if mommy didn't hug you enough. But I doubt you're going to find the intimacy you seek in this Seiko thread.

Also, congrats on your 50mm acquisition. Now you have a time piece with the size and style of a court-ordered ankle monitor.

these were recently on amazon for 157 but have since gone up a ton inexplicably. it was overnight they all went up. i got the luminox for 300 from costco and it is 600 everywhere else. the tritium lumen is amazing. never had a watch that never dimmed in the dark. used by navy seals. much rather have it. https://www.amazon.com/Luminox-An...merReviews

The case design is what separates the Seiko Turtles. I'm seriously tempted by the King Turtle with the blue "Save the Ocean" dial for $380.

Sapphire crystal, ceramic bezel and a gorgeous dial FTW!
