Are the SPB210J Sunbeam Alpinist & SNE569 Solar Diver among the most heavily underrated Seikos of the year? They were released quietly alongside a myriad of new Seikos as the brand went on a frenzy to refresh the Alpinist, 62mas and Marinemaster line up. These watches aren't new- but rather they are new renditions of the classic seiko's we love. They were hardly talked about in 2021 and were overshadowed by Seiko's new releases. Are they worth it?

Have to say your colour grading for this video is excellent. Most of the videos I've seen cant get the colours right for the SNE569, often purple bezels with blueish dials, but you nailed it nicely with the grey and the black is black. Nice work.

Great production on this one. I have to say that Alpinist is really eyecatching. Keep up the great work!

Thank you! It's an intereesting piece that alpinist? It almost appears to be bronze sometimes. Which might be an upside for someone who wants the look but not the patina!

Thanks for your overview of these two watches. I noticed that you said that the SNE569 has no polished surfaces but in fact the chamfered edges extending from lug to lug and the top of the crown guards are polished. Adds just a little touch of bling.

Thank you! Great point. I had thought I mentioned in the video there is a delicate polished line at the top of the lugs- but it may have slipped my mind. Happy New Year.

Excellent presentation, Im waiting on my Alpinist in this tone- one thing I kind of sorry for is the thickness of the case bottom here :)

I had meant to say “ghost coin edged bezel” when covering the SNE569- please excuse the brain slip

still on my honeymoon with my sarb017. that one can not be replaced......something about watches that have the look of another metal, but aren't.

@perpetuality 2 жыл бұрын

I can respect that. My view on it is that it’s for people who want the look but not the softness of gold. I’m just happy seiko gave us options

Hi, how heavy is the SNE569 compared to the SKX007?

Much lighter than a skx

I love the looks of an old sub. But I wouldn't give you more than $ 200.00 for it. I would give about $250.00 for a new one because it is a little more accurate. I would buy a seiko 569 over a Rolex at the same price. For some wacky reason accuracy is important for me, after all it is a WATCH.

@dgdave2673 Must be a Rolex snob😂😂😂 But you do you boo Sorry I triggered you. NOT REALLY. you keep playing their silly ass game, and being a big shot ( probably just living above your means ) .And I'll keep WEARING watches that work as a watch is supposed to .

@marshallcollins8634 2 жыл бұрын

Unless the signed crown makes it more accurate than leave it off. I don't care about sel's either. Never lost a watch because of NOT having sel's . It actually makes it heavier.

Interesting opinion. Thanks for watching

People complain about non signed crowns on Seiko watches but no complaints about Rolex watches having blank case backs.
