The watch has polished rectangular-shaped hour markers which, again, enhance the perception of quality. Right next to the inside of the markers on the dial, the watch has applied luminous dots which help with legibility in the dark. The hands are leaf/dauphine style hands, also made of polished metal. They also have applied Lumibrite on them. If you’re looking for a classy and reliable timepiece for the office, or going-out, then you can't really go wrong with this watch! This watch contains an "un-adjusted" Seiko 7S26 movement. This movement's strong point is that it continues to run reliably, just about as accurately, for a very long time before requiring service - typically well over 12 years. Up to 20+ is quite possible. Some people claim to have Seiko watches from the 60s (with very similar movement inside) that are still running beautifully without ever visiting a watch maker (50+ years!).

The watch is fitted with a stainless steel bracelet that is mostly satin-finished but has some polished parts.I am very happy with this little "Fleiger style" watch, particularly with it's dial, which compares to any that I have seen in the affordable watch space. The dial has a great deal of well composed detail, this is subtle and hard to see in photographs. In person this very inexpensive watch actually looks high-end. But one thing is for sure, this movement will likely not let you down, which after all is the most important thing. Seiko 5 SNKL41 bracelet If you're not used to automatic mechanical watches, then you need to accept that they'll gain or lose a few seconds a day; even luxury automatics costing thousands do that... Die Seiko SNXS79K ist eine elegante und zeitlose Armbanduhr, die mich mit ihrem minimalistischen Design und ihrer hochwertigen Verarbeitung absolut überzeugt hat.

Todos los comentarios, tanto míos como de personas con experiencia en el mundo de la relojería, son bastante positivos tomando en cuenta el precio de la pieza. El reloj tiene muy buen peso, un dial precioso, probablemente las fotografías no le hagan mucha justicia pero en persona es increíble la calidad de la caja en sí. Its value proposition becomes extra evident when you look at this watch in detail. It’s not the best watch out there in terms of finish and build quality, but in relation to its price, there are few better alternatives on the market. The watch is equipped with the automatic Seiko caliber 7S26C. This watch beats with a frequency of 21600 BPH (6 beats per second) and has a power reserve of about 41 hours. It is equipped with 21 jewels. I like the stainless steel case. It has an interesting multi-layered construction, with the top part having the bead-blasted finish and the bottom (as well as the sides between the lugs) being highly polished. The round bezel formed out of the top section simulates a third layer. The case's sleek lines and tiered geometry contribute significantly to the SNK803's visual appeal. Note: many photographs of this model make it appear that the color is a darker, brownish yellow. The dial doesn't really shift in color as such photos suggest. The first photo of the listing is pretty close to the comparatively light, creamy-beige, actual color.The polished markers and hands catch the light beautifully and help give it that premium-watch impression which is a great thing considering its price.

I have a modest collection of watches, including 2 other Seiko 5 models, one of which is 14 years old. So, the Seiko 5 is well known to me. Night visibility isn’t great, there’s some limited ‘lume’ applied to the hands, and small dots of ‘lume’ at the foot of each silver baton. However, if you do want a really good watch in the dark, then Seiko do plenty! For starters take a look at the Seiko SNXS75K or SNXS77K.
