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

Revainrating 5 out of 5

It's great!: my review

I bought one of these at a major department store last Saturday, mostly because I read the reviews here, saw the YouTube video, and finally saw it in person. This is a fantastic watch! My wrist is six + three quarters of an inch and I was afraid they would be too big. But that's not the case. The size of the case isn't too big as it doesn't protrude far beyond the rotating bezel. It just suits me perfectly. It's very high quality for the price and the glow at night is fantastic (I've never seen a Seiko that wasn't there). I was surprised that the strap is also of high quality and has a very nice clasp. My watch runs about 12 seconds faster every day, but I haven't worn it all day and if you know anything about automatic watches, they run differently depending on the orientation. I'm sure I can scale it down a bit if needed. I've been dreaming of a diving watch for a long time and have seriously considered buying a watch like the Davosa or Steinhart. However, I've decided to go with it for now as I really like this style – it's relatively unique and quite modern for a diver. He definitely has his own style and everyone I know loves him. You will not regret it.
