I keep coming back to the white dial with rubber strap. If they’re was a watch of the year award 🥇 at its price range it would be at the top.

I bought the Black Dial.... Very good quality! Gonna match it with a FKM rubber strap. Ceramic bezel? Checked. Sapphire Crystal? Checked. ISO certified? Checked. Hackable? Checked. Manual winding? Checked. Robust movement? Checked. Crown that is easy to operate and good grip? Checked. Waffle dial / Hobnail / AP like? Checked. Manageable lug to lug? Checked. Bright lume? Checked. Date with cyclops? Checked. In-house movement? Checked. Fits 100% well on my 6.5 inch (16.5cm) wrist. Looks bulky but very comfy. It has the upgrades we are asking for: Sapphire crystal and Ceramic bezels. The bezel rotation feel is very solid, no back play. The crown is very easy to grip and operate. 4R35 means i do not need to worry about servicing costs as it is a workhorse movement. This is the only Samurai I would recommend.

The blue is amazing

Man this is some crazy crazy watch, amazing, i am in love with this watch. Overwhelming, just knocked me out, simply mind blowing

The white dial is superb!

This watch is part of my rotation and its so much better looking in person. The line gives it a hint of mmm a white green on the indices

The suttle gold against the black is perfect

I bought one of these after learning about it and seeing reviews online especially yours. I bought the white dial version as it suited my collection where I didn't have a diver-style white faced watch. It's even better in the flesh. It's weighty being stainless steel but wears comfortably with that soft rubber strap. And the stainless steel strap keeper is a nice touch. Seiko said they don't do alternative straps for it but I can't see why it can be swapped out for bracelet on the black dial version. It gets nothing but positive comments. It looks very classy and well above its price point (around £500 in the UK). The bezel is said to be hardened steel not ceramic as some reviewers claim. The lume is also great in the half light and darkness.

The white king samurai is spectacular 😍🙌🏻

Love the white dial

they finally caught up with the modders out there lol I put a ceramic insert and sapphire on mine a year ago. loving the white version

Which King samuris come with both strap and bracelet? And ceramic bez and sapphire?

Where can I pre order one?

Any chance to see seiko manta king turtle?

Much better than the King Turtle imo. The huge "candy bar" cyclops ruins the KT for me. This looks much better.

actually prefer that white dial version to the white omega SMP 300 one

Does anybody know why some of these white king samurais come white the inscription "made in japan" and others don't ?? Which is better ?

New colour come out this year?

I hope to score a manta ray version. If not the white is a close second. 👍

I am thinking about buying the white dial version 🤔😁

Those Manta Rays 😍

What about the spb149?

I have the manta save the ocean!! I want the white but with metal bracelet!! And maybe the black as well might as well!!.

Unable to find the white one for sale

The blue one is the winner, by a mile. All I want is the blue one. The white dial is cool though.

A seiko king samurai or Squale Military or Steinhart Military 39mm.....??

Love white dial

Everyone talking about blue and white, when black is just there looking all eligant.

A seiko king samurai or Squale Military or Steinhart Military 39mm.....??????

I've never owned a Sekio,, but I really want this White King Samurai... Are you able to buy the steel bracelets separately though? Only thing holding me back,, thanks.

Still waiting for the king turtle with the white dail

Are the Samurai bracelets and the King Samurai bracelets interchangeable ?

They changed the crown guards

Never liked the samurai but that white dial looks good

I think nah on king turtle. But first time i saw your thumbnail, i immediately love the blue and the white dial. What turns me down is the movement is 4R35. I have mini turtle srpc41 and fuyugeshiki srpc97 with 4R35. I also have seiko scallop srp653 with 4R36. In my experience, 4R36 is more reliable while 4R35 has more wide deviation in accuracy.

Does anyone know where I can purchase these? I can't seem to find them from any reputable dealers

Built this a while ago ,but with day-date (NH 36) and Matt gold bezel

I would miss the coloured bezel insert of my SE and the dial. Not a fan of the black bezel insert. And why still a 4 R? The hardlex on my version is still perfect. Just pop in a Sapphire yourself on the old version. Saves at least 250 dollars.

Finally, automatic watch from seiko with magnifer glass

I really wish the made the hands longer especially the hour hand. It looks a bit silly but hey, it's the samurai theme.

Whats your wrist size?

The entire prospex line is super

👍👍👍👍👍👍

You have the mvt edition. Those are sold at gas stations next tonthe incense and cheap knives. Those don't count as Seikos.

Beautiful watches, I just can’t stand magnifiers on all watches. Jumbled up a beautiful dial

Do they have a smaller version of this in 40 mm ?

It'd be nice to see the seconds hand moving

This watch should be called Abraham tank. The angular sides look so much like the front turret of the Abraham A1.

Show the back!

They use to be like 450...now they're priced as Sumo.

Pinned bracelet, and a pressed clasp at this price point? Good grief...

Decorative dials walk a fine line between classy or toy. Must be very careful here. Seiko gets it right half the time. Rolex has a lot to learn.

I stopped watching the video when I read they were pre release samples

I mean the orient mako 2 is much affordable and more accurate lol

Still oversized. Seiko never learns.

chinese warped version of a submariner , always thought that of Seiko, its like if you stretched out a submariner in different angles you get a wide variety of seiko divers lol
