Seiko 5 Sports SRPD vs Rolex Explorer

I sized it and it has perfectly balanced weight in conjunction with the watch, it feels solid though not entirely (who cares), and the clasp closes with an excellent click with nothing appearing loose nor giving the impression that it will snag onto anything or slowly open. The lume, as expected, is beautiful and is even in brightness all around the face. On the wrist the watch, again, has wonderful balance around the whole circumference of the wrist. The weight of the watch does not feel as if to swing in favor of any side of the wrist

FOOL ME ONCE SHAME ON YOU , FOLL ME TWICE , WELL , THAT WILL NEVER HAPPEN AGAIN ! ! ! :( :( :(

. Initial impressions: The 5KX doesn't disappoint! The rich blue sunburst dial on the SRPD51 and applied indices are much more attractive than the original SKX's matte/printed dial, and while the bracelet and endlinks might be folded and hollow, the way it articulates is super comfortable, plus the smooth clasp functions very well. I'd even say that with the flat display caseback instead of the famous raised wave logo of the SKX, the 5KX sits nicer and more planted on the wrist

in a sporty watch. I love the double-locking mechanism along with the half-link adjustment within the buckle, as well. Lastly, the "ROLEX" logo is imprinted all along the edge of the inside of the front of the watch case. I thought it was a cool, little detail

I purchased this with the idea of making it look like my dream watch. A grand seiko spring drive watch. And I've succeeded. This came originally with a blue diver bezel but removed for a lucius Atelier polished pilot bezel

It is reserved and yet instantly recognized. It's a sports watch, but could be worn in a formal setting. It is clean, simple, and minimal while still being elegant, precisely engineered, and beautiful.
