Review on Seiko Prospex Samurai SRPB51: Stainless Steel Automatic Dive Watch - 200m Water Resistance by Faye Wright

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Only for fans who know how to forgive.

Overall a good looking watch. The dial is killer, well executed, with just the right amount of sparkle. Lots of mounting issues, crown protected, misaligned in many ways, bezel cheaply made and ONLY crumbling after a few days in the office. For the price, even Seiko has many better options. Sumo, Srp637, amzing SKX, SRPA21 etc are better built and better value for money. I used to be a Seiko fan, but with so many micro brands doing incredible work, it's time to move on. If you are a Seiko lover of this item, it will be made for you, if not, please go to other models or other brands. Personally I will definitely keep it. If you buy one, keep in mind that it's quite big, almost like 45/46mm, and also quite thick; Check the alignment as this is an issue for some but not all. You might want to change the strap, the original rattles a bit and looks better on rubber or leather.
