Review: simple and elegant - I own the popular Citizen Eco-Drive (#BL5180-57L). While I really like the watch for its appearance and convenient size, it has a complex dial, and an even complex system to navigate. Moving into dual-time, or alarm mode is so onerous that I simply stopped using all the features. The dial is dark blue that almost looks black at some angles. I wanted a watch that was quite the opposite - white with a simple Day-date dial face. I wanted one that required no batteries (kinetic, eco-drive or automatic), steel band and WR to some degree. I have 6 3/4 " wrists, so I eliminated dials bigger than 40mm. I also wanted stainless steel band, not titanium because the latter, although elegant and light, just lacks the right amount of macho, in my opinion :). I searched high and low. On the internet, jewelery stores, chains like Sears, Macy's, but just couldn't find anything that met my criteria. For some reason Citizen Eco-Drives simply do *not* have white dials (except the one Railroad watch, but that has red markings that I did not want, all others have grey or silver-gray faces). The seikousa site had some good watches, but again nothing that met my criteria. It may be a marketing cycle - these days people probably prefer the heavy chrono watches. Most swiss watches were out of my budget, although I was getting so frustrated with my search that I contemplated Tissot, and Tag Heur. But I didn't think they were automatic at any reasonable price range. I finally found some seiko watches on bluedial that I liked and that's when I stumbled across the "Seiko 5" watches. It was like stumbling upon lost treasure! These watches are so simple, functional, elegant and affordable and for some unfathomable reason you can neither find good specs nor reviews on them. I short-listed a bunch of white-dials on bluedial and finally by the process of elimination, arrived at this SKA01 model. While the price on this watch was far below my budget, the price on desertcart handsomely beat that on blue dial so I ordered one from here, sold through Justcalculators. The picture here is terrible - the watch looks much more elegant. Search on google images and you will find some really good pictures on ebay. I was a bit reverse-worried at the cost of the watch, that it may look 'cheap' at 70 bucks. I was so happy when I got it (shipped very quickly by justcalculators). The face was exactly like I wanted - simple, elegant, with very clear, bold black, yet unobtrusive, day-date. The dial was about 38 mm, again perfect for a 6.75" wrist. Now here is the part about the band. It is not very heavy like the eco-drives. It is the 'older' kind that can be laid flat (the eco-drive links are short and tight and retain their shape when off your hand) and it does not have the safety clasp. It has gaps between the links. But the band DOES NOT look cheap. It has a brushed appearance, the links are significantly thick (not thin like stilettos), and because of the gaps, light in weight, making it comfortable to wear it all day long. I have had it for about 4 days and no problem so far, and I don't expect any from a respected brand like Seiko. It takes about 3/4 day of continuous wearing for the battery to get fully charged. The sweeping seconds-hand looks elegant. All in all , strongly recommended.
Review: Fantastic Automatic - I still can't believe that Seiko can manufacture a watch of this quality at this price. I bought this watch to keep me company while my Rolex is out for repairs. I have to say, I'm constantly impressed by it. I received it from desertcart in the original box with tags and protective films in place. The accuracy is alright (~-5 sec/day), but the precision is amazing. It's always 5 sec. every position, every day, that's quite an amazing thing for a completely unfinished movement that's likely never been touched by human hands. In any event, I couldn't be happier. This watch fills a perfect niche. It's a great "everyday" automatic, that will likely give you years of service. The only down side is that they're basically disposable. You're certainly not going to pay $250 for a service on a watch that costs $50. Even the band, which others have described as "cheap" feels quite high quality to me. If you get this watch, ask any of your friends (who aren't watchmakers) how much they think it costs. I bet it'll be at least triple what you paid.
