SEIKO Watch for Men - Essentials - with Day/Date Calendar, LumiBrite Hands and Markers, Leather Bracelet, 100m Water-Resistant

A larger watch is easier to read and that’s a a big plus. But the yellow gold and professional looking watch face means this is still dressy enough to wear on less informal occasions.

I like to wear a regular watch with a face with mechanical moving hands. This one looks great and keeps time well checked against a standard. It is easy to set the date and the day of the week (in your chosen language) following the included instructions.

This timepiece not only boasts a fantastic aesthetic appeal but also offers incredible value. Perfect for those seeking a touch of sophistication, this watch is sure to turn heads as you stroll through the office corridor. A must-have for anyone who appreciates class and style. This SEIKO watch is a true gem that combines elegance with practical features, making it an excellent choice for both fashion and function.

The dial is lovely. The outer ring is curved upward. (I think this fakes the watch-enthusiast-feature that is image warping of a domed crystal.) The quartz movement is nearly silent. The gold hand and dial elements glint in bright light, but it never looks gawdy.I don't plan to test the water resistance.I'm pretty sure it's more accurate than I'll ever need. We'll see this time next year.The brand has a reputation I trust, so I expect that long term, this watch will be excellent value for money.I'm going to take good care of this watch and I'm pretty sure I'm going to enjoy owning it for many years.

While, at +77 years of age, I focus on collecting and restoring 19th Century Pocket Watches, I also repair standard wrist watches as well. I have owned and enjoyed a number of very high-quality watches - Rolex, Breitling, Fortis, etc. as well as Seiko Hi-Beat which stands with any of the others. SEIKO makes an excellent watch - mechanical and quartz movements. On arrival, I put this Seiko Essentials Day/Date on my Tester and immediately confirmed the Piezoelectric Tuning fork was vibrating correctly at 32,768 KHZ with confirmed coil continuity. I personally enjoy the elegant straight-forward dial + day/date feature. Wrist watch rear case covers come essentially in two flavors - pop-off or screw-down. You'll find virtually ALL quality watches feature a screw-down rear case lid as does this SEIKO Model SUR449 - offering a much greater water resistant factor and guard against debris intrusion. It comes with an excellent mineral glass crystal and is warranted for 100 Meters of water resistance (= 328' underwater at 141 PSI of pressure) good for Surfing/Snorkeling/Spear Fishing. I'm too old for such effort, but will enjoy my Seiko Essentials watch at dinners with my friends. My highest recommendation, buy with confidence. JCH

I have had 4 Seiko watches and like them all - still have 3, one was lost after 20+ years of service. This one is just slightly larger than an old fashioned men's size watch (which I prefer), not as oversized as most now. The 5 min markes are very large, and the hands and min dots are large enough to be easily readable. The "champaign" face (= light gold) is a bit similar to the hands, so the contrast is just enough. The calfskin band is a bit narrower than most, but is supper comfortable, and helps to lighten the weight, making the overall comfort higher. One unexpected feature I like is that the minute marks on on a beveled ring, which adds a nice texture to the look. Amazon spec says made in China, but the watch back states Japan. Also states 10 bar (the higher waterproof spec) and saphire crystal (which I think is pretty durable). I recommend it.

I wanted a quartz watch from Seiko because they made the first quartz movement watch ever.I chose this one over the Solar model because I liked the aesthetics of the silver dial more. I also didn't like how the solar model said "Solar" in white text that was a different font than Seiko.It's slim, not too ostentacious, and the strap is nice enough to not replace.It's a solid, sleek, quiet (no "ticking") watch.

The media could not be loaded.  The looks of this watch is stunning and real nice. It came already with the correct date and time. This green emerald is beautiful and the size is bit smaller for my liking but still looks good. It was worthy purchase! My 2nd seiko

gave it to my husband for fathers day--he absolutely loves it

I have owned this watch brand for many years and it has been the best of watches.

It is as described on-line. Very nice, light, and accurate. I am completely satisfied.

Love the dial layout, and it keeps excellent time. Seconds hand seems to be well calibrated to the indices.

Es un reloj de vestir que trae una correa con costuras que sobresalen en color blanco y te da una apariencia deportiva. Me encantó. Ligero con cristal de safiro.Y sobre todo los 100 metros de resistencia al agua. Lumen de calidad como todo Seiko. Por el precio una belleza.
