Gorgeous! I prefer this over the sarb017 alpinist, actually. A subtle texture dial in matte green instead of sunburst with no compass makes it cleaner and more versatile imo. A perfect GADA watch!

I bought this one about a month ago and I am super happy with it. Mine runs about -7sec. a day. One small error you made: the bracelet is just pins and no collars, which for me is a plus. Good review. The new (retro) model coming in August looks great although I prefer mine with numbers on the dial.

I'm glad Seiko gave at least one of these a braclet, even if it's not as good as say a Strapcode. The gray one on a bracelet looks SO good. Kind of an Explorer alternative like that. I do wish I could see that 38mm next to a regular 39.5 Alpinist to compare them, or did you do that comparison in one of your other videos? 38mm is a great size for quite a few average to smaller wrists, but on the edge of small for me. I hope these are selling well, and I love the graduated dial. My SPB089 on Strapcode is right on the edge for me, a very sweet spot in compact sizing. One of my local watch shops shows they carry these, but I don't know about stock levels. I need to go by soon to see one of these in person. I really do like the gray.

Sorry to hear that. I had the 39.5mm SPB089 on it, and love it. The clasp isn’t bulky to me, but I can see that being the case on the 38mm and a smaller wrist than mine (7.25”/18.4cm). The clasp maybe takes up half of the bottom of my wrist.

i just love the look of this watch as an alternative to the Hamilton Khaki Field Auto 38mm (IMO it looks better than the Hamilton KF). But the 6R35 movement seems like such a crap shoot. I suppose Seiko would be willing to regulate it within the warranty period if it's way off?

but it is a great one. just not regulated. most of the 6r's do well on the channel. for example check 2 vids back MM200 PADI. 0seconds a day in 2 positions. So seiko just needs to regulate these
@Andrew.W75 3 жыл бұрын
I think the ETA Powermatic 80 is a better movement than the 6R series (free sprung balance & some versions have silicon hair spring & are chronometer certified). Also the ETA 2824 it is based on is fundamentally a better movement than the Seiko 7s26, on which the 4R/6R are based. The Miyota 9000 series has a higher beat rate than the 6R & is thinner, but it has a lower power reserve & unidirectional winding, I would say these two are about equal.

I've had mine for just 5 days, but it is running at a crazy accuracy of just plus 0.2 seconds per day against a synchronised internet time source. Is this a lucky freak? My other automatics run at plus 6 to 8 seconds per day. I saw a video warning of swings in consistency with this movement, but they are easy to regulate apparently. I don't think I'll be regulating this one.

@@EscapementWatch Your thoughts on this watch vs the Tissot Gentleman Powermatic 80 Silicium?
@EscapementWatch 3 жыл бұрын
Unfortunately, I'm too biased to answer this one but I'll try. tissot is more dressy for sure and a better regulated movement. I do not have access to Tissot as my AD cancelled contracts with them as they did not like the QC and told me they always had qc issues with Tissot and it was a headache to carry the brand. The Seiko has a more toolish vibe and more capable WR and screw down crown. In the end I feel both are different enough to have both in the collect. I like the 38-39mm size for this style of watch more then 40mm as they do tend to wear larger. try both on if you can before you decide. how it wears on your wrist should be the biggest factor
