Nice to see Seiko keeping their tradition of the second hand missing every marker in the worst possile way.

The difference from Casio is that Casio's second hand will hit the indices.

If Seiko can line up the second hand with the minute marks, this would have been great.

really interesting piece, almost like Seiko remembered why people loved them in the first place

Thanks for making the video, would've never known this beauty existed!

I'm glad someone finally reviewed this piece. I've been waiting months for this, great video. I really like the looks of it, this is sort of a reissue of the vintage Seiko Type II quartz models. So it's true Seiko design. I'm really sad to read the bad reputation of this watch, only because the seconds hand, people forgetting that even most Tissot doesn't have perfectly alligned second hand, all of the quartz watches I own, one of them swiss, have misaligned second hand. Except for the second hand Seiko finally made something great for it's price. Thinking about getting one, but in different color.

Thank you for always telling us about new models

Nice review, great photography as always. Nice looking case, dial and bracelet 👍, I also like the hidden 20mm lugs, so versatile, but the second hand missing most of the markers would drive me nuts!

I’m not a fan of the lines on the dial, but beyond that, I think this is a real find for $200

Just bought it and it’s beautiful. Light weight perfect for a daily .

I have bought one and I just love it! So nice from every angle.

Great video as always. I personally like to see you review the new Certina DS-7 which is another new integrated bracelet watch.

Lovely watch. They really hit the mark with the simple dial and good looking bracelet. Also a good choice to go with Sapphire in a 'budget' watch for a change instead of the usual hardlex. If this was a solar quartz I probably would have bought this one right away.

I think it could like very sharp/dressy with a beads of rice bracelet, I really like this watch. Thank you for the video!

Stunning, and the hands missing the markers is an easy fix...may be pocking one of these up in the near future..PRX has nothingnto worry about but the watch shoild certainly be a consideration.😊 pop this on the flat link seiko bracelet and you have an absolute winner. great video and great watch...

bought this watch a week ago and to me they look great no issues with the second hand btw

That second hand missing the markers.... Man I got goosebump.

I absolutely LOVE the dimension on that Seiko, holy hell - I think I might get one😂

Beautiful

I bought a blue dial one for 167 USD a few weeks ago because I liked the looks of it. I've been enjoying it as a vintage watch (quartz, smaller scale, design) with modern materials (sapphire crystal, solid bracelet links). I suppose the lower the cost to acquire, the better it feels. This Seiko splits the difference between the two PRX sizes nicely. Seems like a good baseline watch. Not too splashy but reliable with nice enough looks. Also been lucky as the movement within has better seconds hand alignment than the example filmed here and seems to have only lost 1 second over 2 to 3 weeks.

Thanks Habib.

😍Thats a beautiful watch

Nice watch.

This or citizen tsuyosa or PRX quartz ? I'm confused btw these options. Loving your videos

that was incredible. what a beautiful watch and what great work you did on it! MaMaCoo

Finally saw this watch in person today. Love the white dial variant. But didn’t end up getting it because next to a PRX, this just looks plain and a little boring. It is well finished, and surprisingly slime and comfortable. But I wish the bracelet has a noticeable taper like on the PRX.

What do you think about Festina F20034/2? It seems a similar concept to Tissot PRX at half the price, for the quartz version. I've only seen videos of it, but I've been very impressed by the look of it, especialy the quality of the bracelet.

the production on your channel is insane

Nice shots with your Shunbun Andrei 😀 The rest doesn't matter so much...

I love it.Colour variation's ?

Have you seen the new colors coming to that Edifice line? it's getting a green, blue and tiffany dial option. BTW, the Edifice can be fitted with a 35mm PRX bracelet and then it becomes a PRX killer by itself.

If you were to compare this watch with the Citizen Tsuyosa, which one would look better on a small wrist (6.3 inch)?

Perfect!

Owning the Edifice and been excited to see some new color ways getting released I feel like Seiko is missing out with this release and jumps on the 'hype train' of integrated sports watches a good bit too late. Especially given that it actually misses every single minute mark and looks even more catastrophic when it comes to the main indices (no matter how nicely those are done) I'd prefer the Casio every time. More appealing design, better price for the given quality.

As I look at this review, the more you show the Casio Edifice, the more I tend on wanting THAT one instead of the Seiko 🤷🏼‍♂ Andrei, can you clarify the product number for the Casio Edifice? I really love this simple design but can't seem to find the reference you mentioned in your video - Thanks my friend.

What about Citizen Tsuyosa, I would put it side by side with PRX regarding the price and quality and if we include the automatic mechanism of Citizen I would say It is killer of them all. Just my thoughts :) What's yours?

I bought the blue face SUR555 super awesome

Is the seconds hand moving stiffly? It doesn't seem too wobbly as in common quartz movements

Nice camera work

It’s a nice compliment to the Tissot in one’s collection

For once Seiko actually released a sub 40 mm watch. I like the dimensions of this one

Looks like a beautiful piece, unfortunately I have a small wrist so I really do need a 35mm watch

You have a new subscriber. Affordable watches❤. Nice Seiko 👍I'm a seiko 🐢 fan. A BIG JAPANESE WATCH ENTUSIASTH .

Salut, intre Tissot PRX si Gentelman care crezi ca este un ceas mai bun ? Multumesc !

Miss u bro! ❤

The second hand alignment looks catastrophic… :/

I'll keep my casio edifice, the design is great for the price, it has a solar movement and it doesn't have the alignment problem with the second hand

I own this exact model and i've never noticed the finishing on the indexes😂

Beautiful watch let down by the movement. I don’t have a problem with quartz, it just needs to be well done quartz.

1:37 I always ask myself: why is the seconds hand always off by few degrees and never hits exactly the middle of the time indicator? To me this is super annoying that it is never in line with the indicators 😅 also happens with other watches. Is it by purpose? Is it due to budget constraints? Is it better in the luxury watches segment?

Kinda disappointed that seiko didn't include an automatic movement. But one can hope that an auto version will come later...

Is there a automatic version for this seiko?? And what the model for this seiko?

I prefer the Citizen Tsuyosa to all of these... Similar price but the automatic movement gives it the edge.

Would love to see this design with an automatic movement at around 300-400€. Then I'd definitely buy it.

I would agree - the PRX has a certain flair the Seiko lacks - I think you sorta said that 🤔

Is this movement good, or better go with some ETA / Tissot arround 200$ ?

May I ask where you found a listing of $200 ? I don´t see anything below 300

Not sure if it’s just me, but why does the seconds hand never aligns with any markers

Looks better then the prx imo. Thinner and the dial is (coming) more alive. Only wished there was no gold in the bracelet on the dual tone one. Too much gold for me now so i will go for the silver/white one

Nice but I have yet to see one where the seconds hand lines up with the markers :{

Would be awesome if you mod it to Grand Seiko hands.

OK, now tell me why my 100 USD Timex Weekender Chronograph has spot on second hands aligned with the indexes and this SEIKO does not have that.... If it was automatic I'd get it immediately, finally a good sizing.

I love the misalignment 😂

It's looks like a very nicely finished watch, but I prefer the overall look of the PRX. How do the F06.115 and the 6N52 compare? The ETA is a 3 jewel movement and the 6N52 is a no jewel movement that overall looks much less nicely made. Does it matter in any way? They have similar battery life, and they are both essentially replaceable modules thather than servisable movements. It would be nice to hear more about the pros and cons of the movements when comparing watches.

That European prices are spicy is an understatement! Literally 400 bucks in Sweden 😂

oh boy, here we go, I was keeping this watch on the hush hush, its out now, very very nice looking watch.

Great looking watch, although a shame they don’t make the same exact watch with automatic movement…

Before the PRX hype, Seiko has made several Seiko 5s in the past with integrates bracelet. This newest model looks the best I think.

Is there an automatic version?

The SUR523 and its variants are a better option if you want a conventional case shape. Same movement, 40mm case and you can swap out the bracelet. For what it’s worth mine hits the markers. Not bad for $160. But if you want higher quality then look at the low end Astrons. Something like a SBXY031. You get solar, atomic clock sync and titanium. They do cost around $600. But if you’re in a region that receives the time signal it will always be correct and the movement, 7B52, hits the markers.

Is there an automatic one?

i just melted in sadness when i saw the clasp... why not a butterfly one? is it really really that hard for a seiko piece around $200 to check all the boxes?

Second! ;) can’t wait to watch it! ;)

That seconds hand is falling everywhere else but the second markers. It says a lot about that low quality movement inside.

I like it but hate that the second hand doesn't line up properly.

If they used a VH-series movement instead, which i think would fit this level of quanrtz watch, then the apparent second hand alignment issue wouldnt be a thing either.

Is it just the angle or is this thing just not hitting the seconds?

The markers are very clean; wish the second hand could hit the mark. How about just removing the second hand? It would look dressier and not annoying as the hand clicks by.

Aren't those shrouded lugs instead of an integrated bracelet?

If this didn't have the date window I'd buy ten.

Yes the price in europe is indeed pretty spicy. All I can find is 330eu. Maybe some Amazon options of 300eu but that's it. I doubt you find this for 200 dollar anywhere?

Stick an NH35 in it and charge an extra 25 quid. It looks like it actively trying to miss the marks with its second hand.

Is it still hardlex 😅?? And is there a size of 35-37mm if no it won't work! Tissot just made a watch that doesn't push the concept of oversized watch

Seiko: we will copy the dial of prx and bracelet of Czapek and will totally ruin it with our quality control 😂😂

Hmm, an intriguing watch but I’m left feeling a little underwhelmed - the PRX has perfect proportions from a design perspective and is nigh impossible to beat - it’s the PRX for me all day long - there’s a reason why it’s so popular

I see on the site the second hand lines up with the markers but every video I've seen of this watch has it misaligned

Damnit Seiko sure know how to steal the show, it's hard to move on from this brand collection. Should I buy this?? PRX powermatic is on my wrist btw but the quarzt is tempting and now this piece is around the corner.

I can only find it for 300 euros here in Spain. Where do you watch nerds always find watches so much cheaper?

QRTZ - SERIOUSLY? IF YOU WANT QRTZ - JUST GET A DIGITAL ONE

what's the model?

Nice watch, but its more like 300e in Europe (France). And the second hand misalignement is quite a turn off.

Read one comment about a misaligned second hand and now I can't see anything but the misaligned second hand! LOL

oh boy

What is your wrist size?

Nice 👌🏻, but the second hand doesn’t hit the indexes 😬 ( same as the Tissot prx, the Casio do 👍🏻., otherwise a very good alternativ, nice review and macros 😇. Have a nice evning 🙌🏻

For 200$ the specs certainly punch above their weight but something just feels off about it. Maybe its the horizontal lines on the dial. Or the odd bracelet. Quartz hands not hitting the markers always make me cringe. I want to like it but it just seems to fall a bit flat for me. Also can we all just get on board with AR coating for all watches? 2023 and i can’t imagine it costs more than a few cents to add. As a complete aside, might I suggest a review of the marathon steel navigator.

Is there a difference between the SUR557 and the SUR557p1?

2:20 Casio S108D is best watch in history for price under 300$, price is 120$, yes we all pay more 150-170$ for better bracelet but, wow it have 7.8 mm thickness and look so good like its from space

BM7490-52E by Citizen is vey similar to this Seiko. Also with sapphire, available under 200. That citizen corso has more interesting hands than this Seiko. Both are nice. The citizen is eco drive, charged by light. The seiko is slightly smaller, which is better. Citizen is 41mm. Would have been nice to include the Citizen for a comparison, beyond the Casio.

Second hand missing the markers again….. jeeez
