Makes me feel grateful that I can own a minty SBDB009. These Spring Drive tunas are awesome.

I love that Seiko put their Grand Seiko movement into a Tuna. Great review!

What a sweet watch. Seiko has these hidden gems which keep springing upon you every second day. Their product design team must be massive to be churning out gazillion models year after year.

This is why your channel is one of the best: constantly providing a hands on look at SO many rare watches. Awesome vid per usual. That thing is SWEET.

Thanx for showing this Spring Drive Tuna! I’m actually really liking it.

You're right about the second hand sweep. It's simply mesmerising.

Great video Rob! The watch is an engineering marvel and very aesthetically pleasing!

Thank you Doug for sharing this watch with us. Spring drive is totally amazing. I find the sweep of the second hand mesmerizing. This is a really cool watch. Thank you for a great review Rob :)

Seiko’s Springdrive diver has been my grail for several years now. If I could pick any dive watch regardless of cost, this is the one I would get. Thanks for a thorough review of one of the coolest watches ever made!

This is perfect for me to do diving on my desk 🏊‍♂️

Very cool watch! I really like the dial and the design of the case. Great watch.

Got my SBBN033 a few days ago and I absolutely love it!

This is just an incredibly awesome watch! Gorgeous!

I love it...I like big legible watches like Panerai and the IWC BP.. This is also a winner.

Its funny you posted this. I just purchase one this week. Its an epic watch!

Spring drives are awesome!! That power reserve gauge would take some getting used to.

Jesus Christ - that is probably the NICEST non Rolex watch I have ever seen. I am going to get this watch, and when I do will post a video of it. One for sale on Ebay for $6200 AUD. what an absolutely gorgeous watch. I think it looks even better than a Deep Sea or Sea Dweller!....

Man... I really want to buy a Seiko Tuna to add to my Seiko collection.

I own the SBDB009 which is the model before this. exactly the same but with a engraved S logo on the crown. only made for about a year. pretty rare piece. Mine keeps about +1 second a month. accuracy is mind blowing. had it for quite a few years now and has not deviated from that accuracy. One of my fav. in the collection. such a cool and unique time piece. Although it does not say Grand Seiko on the dial, these or atleast earlier ones were made in the Grand Seiko factory by Grand Seiko artisans. Only reason I'm told that it does not have the Grand Seiko logo is that it's a saturation diver and it had to be in the Marine Master line up. does feature slightly less decorated sprig drive movement but it's closed back so who cares? Wonderful watch. Spring drive tuna as a whole is now discontinued from what I understand so expect prices to slowly creep up on these. if you are on the fence and see one come up for sale, I'd say grab it. Very unique time piece that you will fall in love deeper each time you wear it. oh it has very fine vertical hand brushing on the shroud that looks killer and zaratsu polishing on top and bottom of the shroud. The shroud itself looks like dyed metal instead of coating. very unique look. can't say enough nice things about it. also, I have a 6.25-6.5" wrist. fits me fine. no over hang due to lugless design. it's a big watch but fits more like a 47-48mm lug to lug end watch.

Congrats to the buyer! Really nice watch!
