Before my Apple Watch, I'd wear interesting watches, daily, some that brought-in an occasional compliment.
Now?
Now I've got 1 boring brick on my wrist.
Damn you Steve Jobs!!
I'm getting tired of the feeling of "Having to be connected". The phone is enough.
If they want to compete with strictly luxury brands, go for it. They'll miss the budding watch enthusiast market they were built on. But hey, don't piss on my head and tell me it's raining. Why brand these Seikos with a stupid 5 at all? Just brand it a Seiko.
Used Orange Monsters are going for two to three times what they used to go for new.

It's true: the current Seiko 5 and Presage lines are more expensive than the models they replaced, and some actually downgraded in some ways: you can't get a cheap 200M ISO certified diver from Seiko for $200 any longer. But then again, that was always a freakishly cheap price for a certified dive watch.
However, Seiko's 2021 lineup is still excellent compared to Euro brands at similar price levels. Tissot, Hamilton, etc... I think you will still find Seiko a clear winner.
If you want crazy value in an automatic watch from a Japanese brand, check out Orient. They will still sell you a great looking Rolex Submariner-inspired 200M dive watch for $200 or less and their automatic Bambinos are just a hair over $100. Same parent company as Seiko and they have somewhat stepped into the affordable price range that Seiko is vacating.
Or obviously check out a microbrand... if you are looking at an affordable microbrand watch chances are there's literally a Seiko NH35 or NH36 movement inside....
