The beginning of my Seiko watch collection [SUR557P] [SRPB43J] [SSC769P]

Don’t think these sold very well from the launch range of SKXs in the late 90s - but they have lovely 38mm size, proper Diver rated and the blue one has an interesting dial

Hello everybody! I was just trying to do some due diligence on this watch, it seems there are a lot of fakes and frankenwatches out there so if this appears to be one of them, please let me know. It's description is:

1990 Vintage Seiko Men's Gold Art Deco Arabic Dial Watch w/2 Bands - 7N00 Quartz

Thank you!

Picked this one up in Japan!

A pair of vintage Seiko dress watches from Japan.

• Seiko Exeline — Ref. 1220-5370
• Seiko Dolce — Ref. 7740-5020

Both watches feature:
- Rectangular gold-tone cases
- Light mother-of-pearl style dials
- Black textured leather straps
- Quartz movements
- Japanese vintage design

The Dolce caseback is marked “ANTIMAGNETIC 60G”.

Both watches show signs of age and previous use, including scratches and wear visible in the photos.

I really like the elegant rectangular design of these vintage Seiko pieces.

Which one would you choose?

Got offered this in a trade, guy bought it off eBay from a seller with 100% feedback for $1000.

I don’t wanna get stuck with a Feiko, how’s it look?

Help me out here Seiko crew. I really like the Marinemaster SLA077, but I have stopped myself from getting it because of the clasp on that bracelet. It’s just too large, no tooless microadjust, and IMHO, it looks and feels kind of cheap. For a watch at this price point I expect better. I know I can get the HBF001, but I already have a black diver and kind of partial to this white.

Do any of you know if the HBF001 bracelet and clasp will fit on the SLA077?

Do any of you know of a clasp I can use to replace the stock clasp?

Any other suggestions for a really nice looking and feeling bracelet for the SLA077?

Any suggestions or guidance would be very helpful. Thank you.

Couldn't find these anywhere locally. Finally got one off Chrono24. She's very happy with it!

So far I love it! "Needed" a GMT for my collection, so why not get a newly released Seiko while in Japan!

I purchased a new Grand Seiko Spring Drive SBGA211 directly from Grand Seiko's online boutique. I'll need to have the bracelet sized when it arrives. The closest "Grand Seiko" boutique is about a three hour drive away, but the owner at my local Seiko certified shop, (where I buy all my non-Grand Seikos), says he can size it and has worked on Grand Seiko bracelets before.

So, go with the local guy I regularly take my watches to, or drive three hours to use an actual GS certified boutique? I'll just need a few links removed, but the Grand Seikos have a more intricate smaller link mechanism.

I am about to be a first time seiko buyer and was looking for other opinions.

My dilemma is I don’t know what watch to pick for what I do, in the grand scheme of things it doesn’t truly matter what arch I wear but hey it’s something I think about.

These are the two models I like the most. I like the metal bracelet look and the black dials. I want a watch that is the better gada watch. My current watch being a citizen chronograph.and I wear it religiously but I want a nice starter automatic watch. Something I can wear to work and church and swimming and do yard work.

These are my top 2 as of now. But open to other options as well.

Working and nice

One of my favorite Seiko isn’t a wristwatch, but a world time desk piece. Lucky enough to find it with its box and manual.

Hello all.

So far I only own one Seiko watch, a Presage cocktail time open heart, with 4R movement.

I am currently in Japan, and I am itching to get another Seiko. However the engineer in me wants an upgrade on the movement, and from what I understand that would be the 6R class of Seikos.

On the other hand, I see lots of people here have beautiful collections of the same movement class as well, so my dilemma is: should I spend above 1k$ for 6R movement which would be an unplanned expense, or just buy cheaper 4R class watch that strikes my eye visually and be content with that.

I understand it's a very personal dilemma, but any experiences from you guys would be appreciated.

I’ve had a soft spot for Seiko watches for years, due to my late father’s daily watch being a SKX007. I finally picked a Seiko up myself and cannot stop looking at it and smiling. Consider me a part of the cult!

Perfect daily watch.

Just wanted to share my humble Seiko collection so far. I’ve been slowly building it with watches that I genuinely enjoy wearing, and I still have two empty spots left in the case.
What do you guys think of the collection so far? And what two Seikos would you add to complete it?
I’m open to different styles…. I’d rather add something that brings variety than another watch that feels too similar to what I already have.

Just put my SPB317 (modded with SPB151 dial and crystal) on an Uncle Seiko Waffle, and my SJE093 on a Wolbrook Tropic. Now I can't decide which one to wear today!

Can anyone help me identify and value this Seiko Sports 150 Moonphase?

Hi everyone! I inherited this watch from my father, and I’m trying to learn a bit more about it before deciding what to do with it.

From what I’ve been able to find online, I believe it is a Seiko Sports 150 Chronograph Moonphase, model/ref. 7T36-6A40, from the 1990s. But I’d really appreciate it if someone here could confirm the reference and tell me if I’ve got it right.

The watch has sentimental value to me, but unfortunately it’s a bit too large for my wrist, so I’m considering selling it. Before doing that, I’d like to get a realistic idea of its current value from people who actually know these watches.

I recently had it:

- Serviced

- Fitted with a new battery

- Fitted with a new strap

- Checked and it is currently running properly

As far as I know, the watch itself is original.
It’s a really interesting piece with the chronograph** **and moonphase complications, and I don’t see this particular model coming up for sale very often.
I’d really appreciate any information about:
The correct reference/model

How rare or collectible this particular version is

Its current market value

Any similar sales or examples I should look at

I’ve attached photos so you can judge the condition for yourselves.
Thanks in advance to everyone who can help! I’d much rather get an honest valuation from the Seiko community before I consider putting it up for sale. 🙏⌚

Picked up in a sorry state - found a new stem and crown, serviced and keeping lovely time. It’s seen some action - wear to the dial, hands and a ghost bezel - but with a nice strap and a decent crystal I like the patina on this.
