Nice price for an automatic, but Jomashop is not an authorized dealer. I ran into this problem when a Tissot I bought stopped working. Amazon has this same watch for 89.00 with Seiko warranty and better return policy.

I guess this passes for a good deal on the SNK series these days. Seiko discontinued this model a couple of years ago but it continues to be sought after. I have the green dialed version (SNK805) that audierules is talking about and can attest that it's a neat little field watch. Emphasis on little. It's 37mm in diameter. Historically that would be considered a standard size men's watch. But today's fashion generally favors 40mm and above so this will look small for guys with average or larger wrists. For guys like me with smaller than average wrists this thing wears great. The exhibition case back is a really cool feature that lets you see that 21 jewel movement beating away.

These are not made in Japan. Only the movement is. They are technically made outside Japan, likely in Malaysia I believe. The ones made in Japan which look similiar are 50 bucks more.

Yeah...I too had an issue with a sub $ 300 Tissot from JS. It too stopped working. However, it was within the 2 year warranty and they let me choose any other watch for same price. By then prices had gone up though. They did stand by their warranty.

Do you know where I can buy just the blue strap? I have a seiko with a stainless steel strap I received as a gift years ago and would like to change that part.

Jomashop replaced my Seiko immediately when the crown didn't work.

Consider this.

You need to measure the distance between the lugs to determine the proper width to order. I guarantee you the Barton strap is much higher quality than the OEM strap that comes with a Seiko SNK.

And no free shipping from JomaShop. Anyone else get the Free Ship to stick.

Do not trust Jomashop folks. Pretty bad service and no accountability or response on complains!

I've sold three watches to joma when I needed to buy a house and get a ring. They paid what they quoted. I also bought and returned a g shock.

Only thing I think you need to note is if they have the watch in stock. I would buy from joma and bobs, and am fairly picky. Buy the seller they say.

Funny the different tastes. I wouldn't even consider anything bigger than 36mm.
They keep saying that small watches are coming back, but I think that is wishful thinking from old guys like me.

JomaShop is an authorized dealer. The automatic Tissot I bought would stop occasionally - 2 year warranty, I called in June 2021, send them the watch, paid $8 shipping, received back 6 weeks later with 2 receipts: one from Tissot (Switzerland), in German, the other from Joma: my watch has been sent to Switzerland, serviced, fixed and tlc-ed. No complaints for my $8.
