I have bought from Jomashop twice and posted Jomashop deals, so not downvoting. But with all these sponsored deals, shouldn't there be a note that they are grey market? I always mentioned the warranty by seller if posting. The average slickdealer is only going to look at the price. Are other grey market goods like cameras and electronics now allowed without mentioning it?

Finally... a watch that's sub 40mm popping up here. They have quite a few others in similar price ranges. I didn't test the "GOOGLE5" coupon on those

Quote from 123Avenger

This is going to be my first "expensive" watch as a college student. All these Seiko 5s seem the same to me, is anything making these have different prices besides the color of the numbers and dials

Open two watches in separate windows, enlarge them so that each of one is half the size of your screen. Place one on the left and one on the right so that they're next to each other making it easy to compare the two. Analyze/examine every aspect of the two, start with color, case shape, bracelet, bezel, move onto the smaller details, hour/minute markers, numbers, hands, from here you should begin to notice theres surely more differences than your original thought

I assume you take showers with your watches on? Is it that really that difficult to remove it before gettin in? I'm sure your skin underneath your watch would appreciate being washed once in awhile… I can't imagine the build up that's back there from prohibiting it the cleanse..

Petty arguments on the internet aside, you shouldn't shower with watches on in general since steam can still mess with watches regardless of water resistance.

Certainly true... not really sure how the previous poster arrived at the bizarrely specific and wildly inaccurate assumption that the only reason someone would want more than 30m water-resistance in an inexpensive everyday wear item is because they like to take long, hot, steamy, showers with their watch... (and really, really, not interested in finding out.) Suffice to say, bathing with a steel bracelet sounds like a potentially painful experience for both the wearer and the watch.

Some people live in areas where they are constantly near, on, or in the water. Some people live in areas where the humidity is extremely high and sudden downpours are a common occurrence. Things get wet and humid and stay wet and humid. If you're riding your motorcycle and you hit a patch of rain, I don't think Seiko would suggest blasting a 30m watch with water at 55 mph. If you're over at your friends house and he says "Hey, let's take the boat out", you may end up dashing for home through the rain and spray to outrun a squall. Now sure, there are special watches that I think deserve to be proactively sheltered from these types of occurrences. Obviously if you KNOW you're going to get soaked/dirty/muddy then just leave your nice watch at home (hello, Casio), but a $100 daily driver watch isn't something I want to have to plan my day around, leave at home when it's cloudy, or be the "Hey wait, I have to go put my precious watch in the car..." guy while the group is headed out to the dock.

Hardlex = Hard Pass for me. I can't seem to keep from accumulating scratches but at the same time it's too hard for polywatch. Seiko needs to hit up whoever the Ali watches get their cheap sapphire from.

Yeah, even Invicta has their "flame fusion" crystal with a sapphire outer layer that prevents a lot of the little day-to-day wear scuffs... it's definitely not perfect either, but at least they're trying. This Seiko seems like that stripped down base model car that really only exists so they can up-sell you "for just a little more" into a higher trim level that actually has the features you want.

These are some focused topics among watch collector YouTubers. Watch a few and you'll understand which seiko 5 are the ones you need to get. Don't buy the cheapest, especially the good ones are probably only $10-$15 more.

Just a few years ago the canvas/nylon snks could be had for $40 on sale. Those were the days.

Saw this deal and was hoping it was a nice looking watch to wear to casual/formal events. Not what I was expecting. Hoping to find a deal on a nice thin sleek looking watch.

These Seiko 5's are typically in $100ish range, so not a mind-blowing deal. I actually just got the SNXS79 off Amazon for $114ish last week, which I think is the better looking dial. The bracelet looks great, but feels cheap. The watch itself is great though. If you're just getting into watches, or if you want a new beater, these are great, fun watches to get. But there are much better dials than the one on this deal in my opinion. But dials are, of course, subjective.

Around this price you've got skagen for a modern look. Timex, orient, or that Tissot visodate on here for something "vintage".

Or take a shot on aliexpress. Ymmv.

In my experience, of several decades, the most legible watch/clock has a white face with black hands and numerals. That's all I will buy.

Very helpful information! I should have noted that I do prefer an automatic. My price point is up to $500.

No hacking or handwinding is a no go for me - even at this price. For $100, I'll take a Pagani. Yep! It's a soulless, unapologetic rip off of design, but solid links, solid end links, sapphire, and hacking/hand winding.
