My dady bought one NKUWAN and he loves it. It had been there for over 10 years when he went out with it.

She's a beauty, for sure. Are you going to review the similar but yet to be released Seiko 5 Sports GMT SSK023? It's half the price of the Alpinist GMT.

At 20mm, it can fit many! Uncle Seiko has a lot of options that will fit this watch easily

I get +25/-15 @ $400 retail. I don’t get it at $1150 retail. The 6R54A and caller at this price are a deal breaker.

They need a screw down crown for the inner compass bezel. Owned a SARB017, the slightest contact with that crown on the wrist causes the bezel to rotate. My OCD could not take it and sold the watch. Chris when you say the 24hr number markers on the outer fixed bezel is printed, are they just printed directly on the bezel or are the number recesseed and paint is filled? If its just painted on the bezel, any dings will remove the paint and is a cheap solution.

Exact same reason I sold my 017.

@oliverlei993 5 ай бұрын

I see, but you can imagine in a real situation if you every time use a screwdown crown to check your position, or you wear a glove nahh…it’s tottaly practical in that way. And the 24hr numbers it’s filled with paint, not just printed. A bought mine today, you need to se in real life, and compare whit the sarb017 or spb121, there is a quality difference…

It is a very beautiful watch looking at it face on. The only doubt I have is about the thickness 13.5mm is quite big.

@chopinho65 5 ай бұрын

Drop the clear case back already Seiko - I mean why? Nothing to see really. It would be more interesting with a solid case back and would be thinner.

@mchockney3664 5 ай бұрын

The compass bezel on an Alpinist lining up.....good one😅! At 4:28 it lines up on the 6 nicely, while being at least a full degree off the 12.

Such a beautiful watch but seiko seriously needs to lose the date window. It’s so annoying to look at at that position. Awesome piece otherwise.

$1200 for a caller GMT? Hard pass! Didn't Seiko recently have a 6R equivalent movement with a traveler GMT function?

@typebflieger 5 ай бұрын

Instead, get a travelers GMT and spend 5min spinning the hour hand to set the date. Enjoy!

The best Rolex explorer style watch is a Rolex explorer 2 GMT in white. If you can afford it and you want mechanical. Quartz is more reliable so would be better for a field watch. Actually just get a gshock

It's not that special in the metal. Too chunky for 39mm.

Man. I know it's free use music, but that chapter has ruined that music. Instantly makes me depressed. Maybe not the best music to use.

Personally I'd prefer it to be 12mm thick with only 100m water resistance.

They need to make this in 41 or 42. Too small for us bigger folk. Lol

@bigbodykarate6403 3 ай бұрын

is there anyway you can do a better job of shooting these watches lol , the straight down 12 to 6 POv does not give a good view of the watch , when in normal life do you look at your wrist and your on top of your own wrist looking down 12 to 6 ??? along with the lighting its just reflections galore .

@ktakahara9145 I will choose to ignore the extremely cheap juvenile shot at the end. I don't hate seiko but I do hate blind gullible seiko fanboys who lap up the modern overpriced crap they dish out just because of the name. I love old Seikos when they were actually good quality and value for money but that was a long, long time ago. As for superior brands there are loads, many with far more history & heritage, but I will just mention a few with far superior pieces at the price. Longines Hamilton Tissot Sinn Damasko Christopher Ward Hanhart Laco.... I could go on but I know that such a gullible little Seiko fanboy won't agree. Have a fantastic day overpaying for 💩.

@@seanhickling7340it’s unbelievable how ignorant you are. Really bro, study before talk. In 1970, Swiss made brands use to run a competition to show the world how precise their watches were. They invited everybody from the world. They lost 7 times in row against Japanese and they quit the competition in 1977. Learn than talk. Bye
