Seiko SKX007J1 Analog Japanese-Automatic Black Rubber Diver's Watch

I am really happy with the Seiko watch. I purchased an Orient blue ray about 2 years ago and it is no longer working. The hour and minute hand did not match each other correctly after about a year. Then the trim around the date fell off a few month ago and stopped the hands from moving. So I purchased the Seiko to take its place. I wished I had just purchased the Seiko first. It’s craftsmanship is far superior. It keeps time perfectly and stays wound for a long time when I’m not wearing it. It also looks much classier. It is built to last. The Seiko may cost a little more than the Orient but it is worth every penny.

The watch does not keep accurate time ! Its good looking, but unreliable. What a disappointment. A $ 20 Timex is better

It’s been about 4 years since I purchased this watch and I’m really happy with it. It’s iconic, super rugged and just overall a great piece to have in your collection. Would recommend for scuba watch lovers.

Strike 1: ordered the K version of the 007. Didn't work out of the box. I can't think of a single product I've ordered from Amazon in the last 10 years that was dead on arrival.Strike 2: ordered the J version, anticipating made in Japan version would be top quality. The bezel was chipped in multiple locations. It should have never left the plant.Bunt: most recent J version is OK except the date is not aligned with the window. I'm tired of returning, and I'm over the notion that Seiko makes great quality watches. If you want good quality, check out Orient. Much better brand even though part of same parent company.Update 6/15 - this watch does keep good time, at least out of the box. Just a few seconds a day off.

It's a legend and easy to understand why now that I have one. For the money the quality is incredible. Not crazy about the band, but after I trimmed it a little is feels pretty comfortable although still rather stiff. Yes I'm a diver, but I don't use watches and charts although I wouldn't hesitate to with the SKX.That being said you can find this watch for WAY less money through other venues. It was selling for $234 when I purchased. I like the Amazon prime venue because returns are so easy if you're not happy.I installed a Barton quick release silicone watch band and it's very comfortable.https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01ASOGBYG/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

The second most iconic dive watch only to the submariner. I reccomend the skx 007J version over the K version ten fold. The quality for the price can't be beat. Matched with a super oyster band you will receive alot of compliments. Keeps time better than some swiss automatics! The lume at night is also phenomenal

I was stoked on this watch, it's mechanical design, and the fact that in theory it should work forever. Less than 30 days of owning and my SKX (J1!!) is running 5 seconds fast PER MINUTE. It gains over 2 hours in the course of a day. Returning as soon as I'm able to and I will update review if it's replaced with a properly working one.

One of the most iconic divers under $250.Goes well with multiple types of wristbands. I would recommend this watch to anyone who’s looking for a simple and good looking watch. I’m wearing it with a dark brown 22mm leather wristband and it looks great.
