I seriously avoided all mention of these Tunas for the last three years. But I should have known that Seiko would have worked their magic on them. They really are the masters at making a big watch wear like a small watch. If you get one at a good price, then this is a killer grab-and-go piece. If you can't then you should also consider the Citizen Promaster range for a similar overall effect. Cheers, Jody

Im starting to really like the reviews on this channel more and more. Jody goes over all the same things in each review in the same sequence so he never really skips a segment or leaves a feature out. I appreciate that. Plus I don’t really want to watch a 30 minute review video that just goes off an tangents. Just one more watch is just my style.

Thanks for another great review Jody. I grabbed one of these when they first came out and it is still running beautifully after how many years now. They are a very clever watch, i love the way it tells you " hey I need some love to get me going again!". Pop it in the sun or any light for a while and back she comes, ticking perfectly. I have several autos in my collection but I have to say I am not one of these who disregards Quartz or Solar watches. Yeah autos are great the way they work but let's face it a pain in the butt when you are in a hurry to get out the door. I have the sne498 and also a Citizen bn0151 eco drive that waits patiently for me when i'm in a rush. i think everyone should own a Quartz solar or an eco-drive in their collection. Cheers

While the shrouds on the 1000m rated tunas are a ceramic composite, and the 300m tunas wear a stainless steel should, I’m nearly certain the 200m solar tunas are a plastic/composite shroud. Nothing wrong with that other than it will show some scratches more easily, but should be bomb proof as far as breakability.

@ginovairo6487 4 жыл бұрын

Nice review. I got one of these a month or so ago for less than Han $300 AUD. I love it and agree it wears smaller than you would expect. The strap was comfortable but I found the metal keeper kept slipping and the excess strap flapped about. I agree, replacing it with a rubber non slip keeper would be worth considering if that is an issue. I replaced the plastic shroud and rubber strap with a solid bronze shroud and black PVD metal bracelet and the watch takes on a really solid tool watch feel and look. Not a Marine Master but who can argue at the price!

I recently got this watch and it has exceeded my expectations. Also, at last a big watch that looks good even on my skinny 6.25" inch wrist. Wasn't sure about the gold but it is a pale gold and looks far better in real life than it does in photo's! Classy even.

You should take a look at the “urban safari” tunas SRPE29 and SRPE31. They are only 43.2mm in diameter and 44mm in diameter, and are automatic for about the same price. They definitely are a bit more “fashion forward” designs over the more tool look of the more classic tuna’s, but still worth considering

I have two solar powered quartz watches, so I'm definitely a convert! My mother's Eco-Drive was buried in my closet for almost 10 years until I found it in December. Left it in the sun all day - back to life! And my Casio Oceanus is my favorite watch right now. I don't think I could pull off a Tuna, but I get their appeal! I'd get the rose gold.

@karlroberts3179 2 жыл бұрын

Hey Jody! I’ve got this watch, as well as a ‘real’ 033 Tuna. I wear this Solar Tuna more, as it’s lighter, and a bit smaller. Day to day, an easier watch to live with, but the difference is quite apparent. None of the baby tunas compare to a real tuna, but I love wearing my SNE498. I’ve owned two SNEs, and sold the first due to misalignment. Great quality. Great review. Cheers.

Jody, glad to hear you seem to be coming round to the advanteges of "solar" watches - a brilliant compromise, I have Seiko (1) Pulsar (3) and Citizen (4) in my collection ... however I have just bought and AUTOMATIC Steeldive Tuna on Ali (in green) - what outstanding value!! BTW it is more accurate to say that "solar" watches are powered by "light" as in fact you can charge them up in ANY light (although sunlight is the quickest).

There are after-market inserts and sapphire crystals, so when it finally takes a hit I'll mod it some more.

I really love mine, much more than I thought I would and it fits my 6-1/2” wrist just perfectly. Put mine on a Strapcode straight end link oyster style bracelet for another US$55 and I’m happy as a clam. Also wears great on a Marine Nationale paratrooper style strap of your choice. And the lume is really impressive, and this is coming from a guy who owns quite a few Seiko’s including a Samurai and a custom build with an OEM Sumo dial and handset. The Solar Tuna is a no brainer if you can get one at the right price.

Personally, even though I think the Tuna is a great watch with great history, I prefer the Seiko 5 "Bottlecap", which looks as if you took the plastic guards off of the Tuna. It has a day/date, Hacking automatic movement, and a variety of options for style. It can be easily bought for around 200 US dollars, but can be bought for around 160 if you look around a bit. It also wears smaller than the Tuna, so if you have smaller wrists, the Bottlecap may be for you (or if you just want to save 400 bucks).

Diameter is the least important dimension when it comes to wearability. Lug to lug and especially thickness are way more important. A large diameter watch with a properly scaled lug to lug and thickness will fit very well.
