SEIKOSRPE03 Prospex Men's Watch Silver-Tone 45mm Stainless Steel

I love it. I am a watch freak. I had an Omega Seamaster which was my all time favorite for comfort and precise time. I gave it to my son when he joined the navy. I couldn't afford another but I have grown up with seiko watches and they have always been reliable. this is the most watch your will get for the money not saying its real inexpensive but sapphire Chrystal, automatic, protected screw down crown and day & date ( which I need )and so many other features you can't beat it. it is very heavy but I am used to that but as big as it is it looks not too big or small on my arm . don't ask me why it just does. I love it as much as my omega ( almost).

I am quite a watch fanatic and own many pieces from Rolex, Omega, Tudor, and Tag Heuer. This watch has a fantastic feel of quality at an affordable cost. I like to take a break from wearing my more expensive pieces to keep the wear off them. Also, getting robbed downtown for your watch is a real thing these days. This Seiko has near the same quality feel of my Submariner at a fraction of the cost. Let's be real it is not a Rolex or Omega by any shape, form, or fashion. The automatic movement works well and I have to make a slight adjustment about every 3 weeks. However, for $500 bucks you can't go wrong and your are getting many of the same benefits of a quality timepiece. I suggest this Seiko since it has a Sapphire Crystal as well. To me that is a minimal requirement for someone that is very active , in the woods, or on the water often. I forget I am not wearing my Omega or Rolex at times and go weeks without taking it off. Don't be afraid to add this Seiko to your collection. Cheers

I’m very shocked how awesome this King turtle is and the quality is very impressive.

I've had this for almost two years and it spends more time on my wrist than any other piece in my collection.The 45mm case size almost made me shy away, but the short lug-to-lug dimensions has this wearing smaller - closer to 43mm. The cushion case design makes it that much more wearable since it is a heavy chunk of metal with quite a bit of real estate in it's overall design.The sapphire crystal and ceramic bezel insert make the face of this watch virtually immune to scratches. Can't tell you how many times I've banged this on door knobs, seat belts, washers, etc. The perfect tool watch.It isn't perfect and has the signature Seiko quality control issues. In my case, the bezel is almost half a click out of alignment, but it's not a deal breaker, and it's relatively easy to correct it. I think it's part of the Seiko charm. It does come with a cyclops, but mine wasn't aligned properly and it really bothered me. A bit of patience and heat from a soldering iron will be able to loosen up the adhesive so that it can be removed. I also wasn't a fan of the bracelet that comes with the watch. The Turtle feels right at home on a NATO or an aftermarket jubilee with fitted end links.These sport the 4r36 movement and it is good enough with mine losing about 12s/day. It can be regulated, but it is within tolerance and it gives me an opportunity to interact with the watch that much more. Seiko's movements are known for their dependability and I know people that have 20+ year-old pieces that have never been serviced and are still running well. There's a reason it's the movement of choice for a lot of microbrands.Dressed up or dressed down, the SRPE03 King Turtle is perfect for almost any occasion and I truly believe that this is an instant classic and one of the last bastions of affordable quality from Seiko.

I ordered and paid for brand new watch, it came scratched from the box.

AWESOME WATCH. With infinite strap options. Formal and sport at the same time. A diver+++

Watch was just as ordered. It is a little larger than the SKX model it replaces. So far it is keeping time much better than the previous watch did for the over 24 years that I owned it. My watch is on my wrist 24/7. Only take it off to adjust time or reset the date. Since it is a divers watch I swim and shower with the watch on my wrist. Watch was shipped quickly, was exactly as described. Would reccomend and would buy from this seller again.MLW,SR

Pretty much any watch is a luxury item, if you have a cell phone you don't need a watch. But I LOVE this watch. I love the vintage 70's look of the cushion case, the crown at 4, and the waffle dial. I swapped out the bracelet for a rubber strap and it is much lighter and more comfortable to me.I did not have any alignment issues, everything is straight and well aligned. Bezzle operates very smoothly.If you like the look of this watch, just get it an enjoy it. This is my most worn watch out of about 10.
