Recommend this to anyone.
I've been wearing this watch for about a week now & I love it. It's a solid purchase considering it's roughly 150 bucks. Although I'm not sure of how to measure a time pieces' accuracy down to the second I can tell you it is spot on in comparison to my phone & computer. The dial is extremely easy to read with both Arabic numerals & hour/minute markers on the raised portion of the dial. The hr/min/sec hands compliment both the numbers and hr/min markers around the watch. The red color on the end of the seconds hand also makes it very easy to distinguish from the blue face. One thing that has impressed me the most is the lume on this watch & how easy it is to read in low light settings especially after a charge. Day/Date is very straight forward in the aspect of easiness to read. The bezel/outer casing is a brushed stainless steel while between the lugs & the portion surrounding the skeleton back is polished. I have not tested it in water yet although I trust it will be ok if you jump in the river/pool or shower with it. I have nothing bad to say about the strap that comes with the watch even though I have two nato straps which is more for my customization/style. I would recommend this watch to anyone that's looking to break their budget. It's not too fancy but at the same time I wear it to work (white collar job) & it's a step above my G-shock which I would normally wear fishing/exercising etc. I hope this helps anyone interested in this.

Quality and price … both exceptional.
Another watch for my collection. Love the colors of both the band and the watch face. Quality and price, spot on.

A GOOD PURCHASE
I start off saying I am a true Seiko fan. My father had Seiko's Viet Nam, which I have and they are in my watch collection currently and still run, WOW. Yeah, I know and they are keeping good time. I recently purchased the Seiko Men's SNZF17J1 5 Sports Automatic Stainless Steel Watch black dial, this IS a awesome watch. I receive kudo's constantly about it -------- everyday and is a go to everyday watch. Just a good time piece.The SEIKO SNZG11J1 5 SORTS BLUE WATCH -----I am not impressed with the band. Somewhat on the inexpensive side and it is being replaced with a Hondinkee Grey Distressed Leather in a 22mm size. It should go well with the matte grey casing. Preference (casing) would have been done all in stainless steel. Looks cleanerThe watch is excellent regarding time keeping , I am impressed. Setting the watch is relatively easy and you can hack (set) it but it can be a trick. yet possible. I personally prefer to hack it exact, so when the sweep hand hits 12 , the minute hand hits EXACTLY on that minute. Minor but nice & to see this when all hands hit at high noon 12. All hands perfectly matched up and looks very, very nice ! .Overall opinion of the watch had I had a choice to rethink the purchase --- YES !, I would buy it. I like it and hope for future pleasure from the watch and a continuing great relationship to Seiko Watch brandIf you purchase this watch I do hope that you like as well as I do.Enjoy, if this is your choice

A Functional Easy-to-Read Military Style Field Watch
The Seiko 5 SNZG11 J1 is in many ways the perfect watch. The Arabic Numerals are the perfect font size. It has day/date and a red-tipped seconds hand with lume. The datewheel is white, which makes it easy to read in low light. I place the watch crown down at night and gain 2 seconds a day...Amazing.This watch looks very sporty and expensive but in a reserved, understated way.It has wonderful wrist presence with that eyecatching blue dial...People just stare at it because it's so legible, they can read the time from several feet away.I can easily dress it up with a coffee brown leather strap or metal bracelet, upgrade to a NH36 movement and a domed saffire crystal with underside a-r coating; but for now I'm very happy with the watch as is.It's very useful when I'm busy at work. All I need is a quick glance to tell the time, the day and the date. It's the watch I reach for every morning.

Great watch, but heads up on one thing….
This is a great watch and it wears really well. However, just a heads up on one thing. When you buy a watch from Jomashop, you do not get the manufacturer warranty card. Something to do with them being a grey market seller (meaning they don’t get the watches straight from Seiko). It’s not big deal. Jomashop has their own warranty. However I just wanted to pass this information along so others don’t have to figure it out on their own.

Good watch for young men with tolerable foibles
I love this watch! I have to say the shipping is slow, or maybe I'm too impatient and can't wait to see! The box is blank and there is nothing on the outside. Maybe they changed the box. But there is the tag on the watch strap. The watch is beautifully blue. But I really hope that the dial can be simpler with less texts on it. And I would probably change the strap in the future because it feels cheap and light, and doesn't fit well.Since I'm working in STEM field and have to deal with those metal parts everyday, I also bought some watch protector film to protect the glass. I heard Hardlex can have scratches easily. The protector is thin and doesn't affect the appearance.I have been using it for 3 days and this watch is running fast, around 6 to 7 sec per day so far. But I have to observe some more days to have the average value.

Comfortable, looks good...
This is my second Seiko 5. My first is the smaller Seiko 5. To start, the larger is now 11 seconds fast in 48 hours. The edges, machining, general look is crisp. Nothing on this watch looks cheap. The dark blue version is a deep navy blue and will look black in darker settings. Perfect for my tastes.The only thing I wish is for this watch to come out in a 40mm*10mm version. The smaller Seiko 5 is 37*10mm and the larger is 42mm*12mm. Finding a perfect sized field watch for less than 200$ has been a process.Overall this watch is balanced, nothing appears over-the-top, a quality watch to wear around town.
