Seiko SKX007K2

For my 2nd skinny dip into the warm jacuzzi that is watch collecting, I picked up the SKX007K2 (with the stock Jubilee bracelet). I needed a daily wear watch - something more sturdy, water resistant, and substantial - to accompany my white-dial Orient Bambino. The bracelet is actually very comfortable and doesn’t pull my arm hairs at all (because I barely have any). I also haven’t become annoyed at the jingle-jangle yet; fingers crossed!.

this is going to be a little long-winded, but please bear with me... i hope i can pass on some tips and hints for those folks new to Seiko automatics and buying these watches here, online elsewhere, and even locally... and especially on topic, i'll also talk about my new SKX007K2... purchased this S...

I just acquired a SKX007K2 about two weeks ago for the same reasons as yourself. I am really enjoying it and have yet to take it off for too long.

I first learned of this watch via a brief review in a blog titled "This $180 Dive Watch Puts Rolex Submariners On Notice". That certainly got my attention since I enjoy interesting watches across a range of price points. The link in the review led to the item here on Amazon and I was impressed by th...

Overall, this is a really nice watch. It doesn't quite have the panache of vintage Seiko 6105 and 6309 cushion-cased dive watches, but it has a considerable following in the dive watch community, and is a favorite for customizing. Numerous bands, dials, hands, and bezels are available so you can mak...

A staple in the affordable watch world. I purchased this for daily wear after reading so many articles on well respected watch blogs and forums. Overall I think this is a great watch. It's stylish, credible, functional and rugged enough at its price point. Noted as a real value, I agree. The only no...

Ordered the watch on a Wednesday, it showed up Friday (with free shipping!). Came from K.G. Company. Showed up new, in the box, on a little pillow and everything. I got it super fast because of my proximity to the seller (I'm in San Diego, they're in LA). I went back and forth for weeks on what watc...

Overall I'm very very happy with this purchase. This is my second seiko and I like this one much better then the sne107. Pros : Great looking ( much better than pics ) Lume is solid : lasts me slightly over 3 hours Good bezel ratcheting Well finished face and lume markers with good quality look and ...

This watch has the cleanest, most readable face of any watch on the market today. Even for middle-aged eyes, the time is easy to see at a glance in almost any light. The metal band, often maligned by reviewers, is actually a very attractive copy of the Rolex-style "jubilee" band, with large side-lin...

I have owned this watch for a couple years now and would like to share my impressions of it. I have a 4x watch collection right now. This SKX, and Seiko Sarb033, a G-shock square, and a Rolex Submariner 114060. I cleared out a lot of my collection to make room for the Rolex, but intentionally kept t...
