Today I'm joined by engineer turned watch entrepreneur Marc Frankel of Long Island Watch for an essential #WatchTalk episode all about Seiko, where we ask and answer: is Seiko still the best choice under $500 in 2023? In this month's watch chat we share our unique perspectives on the brand, our favorite Seiko watches, what we love about them, and why, plus our thoughts on Seiko's evolution, and its design history. We also discuss the watches we've personally owned, sold, and repurchased, watches we totally disagree on, watches we'd love to own one day, our desires for new Seiko versions, and what we'd like to see them do in the future. Join us for another fun and laidback watch talk featuring a brand close to our hearts, to find out why we love it so much, and if it's still the best bet for affordable watches under $500. What do you think about the watches featured in this video? And what's your favorite Seiko under $500? Please share in the comments!

Such a great fitting watch, steel bezel makes it work with any attire and the dial work is right up there with Grand Seiko

My first "nice watch" was a Seiko "Flight Computer," which had the four subdials, and was a progenitor of your Flighty, both in function and design. I believe they were released in the late 80s and were in production until the mid-90s. Really cool chronographs! As for my favorite sub-$500 Seiko, the SKX007/009s are still my favorites. I've been in this crazy hobby for about twenty years - and have owned some iconic watches (Submariner, Speedmaster, Explorer) - but I've always had an SKX in my collection.

For anybody that doesn’t know Uncle Seiko (unlimited straps in the UK) recently started doing both an oyster and a president bracelet specifically for the Flightmaster. I bought the oyster for mine and it looks stunning on it, no more natos or leather straps from now on, the Flighty is staying on the bracelet. I have owned my Flighty for about eight years and paid £225 for it. I also have a Gen 1 Orange monster that I got for £175.

I bought my 1st generation Black Monster for only $178.99! At their official Seiko outlet stores. It just arrived according to the manager, and one look was all it took for me. It's the first major design style change in Seiko's diver philosophy, and it was an instant winner. This is going to be Seiko's "Rolex Submariner". The Seiko diver icon. They nailed the case-bezel and bracelet. The minor iterations to the dial and markers are fine. The case back design has changed too, which is fine for each generation. It can become a form of differentiation and collective value to have multiple case back designs. My only regret today was that I didn't buy an additional Orange Monster at the time. They were considered cheap. I wore my Black Monster as a daily workhorse. It looks nearly new to this day. Almost 25 years later.

The timing of this video couldn't have been better. I had never heard of the Seiko monster up until a week ago when the 'Happy feet' version popped up in my Instagram feed. I started looking into them and found one at a good price (£375 down from £500) and ordered it straight away. It arrived on Wednesday and I haven't worn anything else since! The dial is awesome, but it's also a very wearable watch despite the on paper dimensions.

Hi Tristano, it's Andrea and I'm originally Italian but following you from London. I guess I am pretty late with this comment but Nizza is italian for Nice, the coastal city in the south of France, not too far from the italian borders. It is fairly close to Monaco on the french side and to Sanremo on the Italian one. Being a French city with italian influences (similar to Monaco) I find the name of the strap pretty sophisticated and romantic. I also want to say that I am a big fan of your channel and that I will probably send you my watch collection to rate soon 😜. Keep up the good work amico mio, ciao 🙋🏻‍♂️

One of my favorite Seiko's is the SSB031, in fact I have two so that I can keep one on its metal bracelet and the other I can swap between several quick release leather and/or rubber straps. It's a great looking chronograph and it features a mechaquartz movement, so the chronograph secondhand sweep is very mechanical like smooth. I also have the venerable SKX007 as well as the recent SSK003K1 Sekio 5 GMT Automatic 'batman'. I also have the SSB355P1, a 45mm mechaquartz chronograph which has great dial detail. Lastly, I just picked up a not well known Prospex SSC705P1 which is a solar chronograph with a compass bezel and 200m water resistance which is quite sporty at 44mm and which I use for hiking and camping. Seiko is quite prolific with so many models and tiers and I have to try to not have too many lest my watch collection becomes just a Seiko collection.

Another great video. But the shocker was the Rangemaster 2 news. I was hoping they would expound a bit about that bit of news. I missed out, just barely, on the first. I will not miss the second. Notifications will be turned ON this time.

My favorite is my newest, a JDM model, the Seiko Selection Men's Radio-Controlled Solar Watch SBTM319. 39mm green dial on bracelet, sapphire crystal, wonderful anti-reflective coating, power savings mode, perpetual calendar, and more. A conservative design, the indices glisten in the light when you move your arm, as do the dauphine hands. Price with shipping was about $400. Keeps great time and nice not to worry whether or not it needs a battery and can sit in a box for months without having to be recharged.

I added my email to Ling Island Watch for when the next Flightmasters come in. I want one! Thanks so much for the great episode. ❤

I'll preface this by saying that I'm a longtime subscriber, and love your content. No insult intended, but I just have to share this. My daughter, who is sometimes around when I watch KZfaq, just walked past as I was watching this video and said, "Oh, it's that watch guy that looks and sounds like a knock-off Bond villain. I can totally hear him say, 'We meet again, Mr. Bond!'" She then walked away, chuckling.
