★★★★★ review: The ultimate tool watch - Simple yet elegant design with a clear
dial, lightweight, accurate, and fully waterproof. Sturdy and reliable,
it's a dependable companion. Purchased on Amazon and reviewed in Japan
on December 2, 2022.
★★★★ review: Rugged and versatile - I had used the stainless steel version
of this design for many years, and this new one is just as versatile, suitable
for both everyday use and outdoor activities or formal wear. It's slightly
larger than the previous version, but still a comfortable size to wear.
★★★★ review: Good watch - Lightweight, easy to read, and a great timepiece.
★★★★ review: Simple and very lightweight - At its price, it's made of a titanium
alloy that makes it very lightweight. The band length can be adjusted without
removing any links, and it has six settings. The buckle is easy to remove
but can accidentally come off if it gets caught on something. The accuracy
is good for a quartz watch but not comparable to a radio-controlled watch.
★★★★★ review: Lightweight and durable - I love how lightweight and durable this
watch is. I lost my previous one, so I bought another one.
★★★★★ review: Great visibility and incredibly lightweight - I already have the
same model and have been using it. It's incredibly lightweight because
it's made of titanium, and it can display both the day and date. It's also
water-resistant up to 20 bar, making it functional enough for most purposes.
The accuracy is good enough for me to check it once a month at work. It's
also convenient that I don't need to set the date to 30 at the end of every
month. I recently changed the battery after using it for about three and
a half years. The back cover is screwed in, so if you're handy, you can
change the battery yourself with specialized tools. I wanted to purchase
another one as a backup while changing the battery, but I received the
same model with a one-size larger dial. It's not a problem for me, as I
work with my hands and prefer the smaller one, but it's still a good size.
Some people say it doesn't look luxurious enough due to its lightness,
but since it's a personal item, there's no need to compare its weight with
others. I believe many people purchase this watch for its price and function,
and its lightness is a significant advantage. I also have several other
Seiko watches, but I use this one the most since my work requires a lot
of hand movements. I chose the battery-powered one over the solar-powered
one since the latter stops working if there isn't enough light. The band
adjustment is also easy, which is another great feature.
