Seiko Men's SSC813 Prospex Solar Chronograph Watch, Blue, Sport Chronograph

Wasn't made aware there was a separate customs charge of £90 on delivery in addition to the cost of watch. The watch itself is very good.

The watch itself looks good

I have been a huge fan of Seiko watches and own a few for its excellent quality, great timeless design, incredible detailing, and timekeeping accuracy. I fell in love with this Speedtimer model the first time I saw it. The “panda face” is such a fresh and modern look for a chronograph. I love the high contrast of the white face which makes it easy to read and looks distinctive. The dark dials houses the solar cells to charge the watch and under bright sunlight they appear translucent ink blue which is a cool subtle detail. To accomodate these solar cells the date window is pretty sunken in the face making it harder to read. This is the only fault, though minor, I have with this watch. It’s nice to know that I will never need to change a battery and with regular wear in any kind of light it will stay charged (it has a 40 hour power reserve). The illuminated hands and dial markers have a nice bright blue glow that is long lasting, and the sweeping movement of the second hand is nice to see. I have a smaller wrist and this 39mm size is the perfect size, and also oversized watches are thankfully an outgoing trend these days, and this makes for a great versatile casual watch I could wear everyday, at work or travelling. Any watch aficionado can tell you that Seiko’s are just as good as any Swiss-made watch for much less and without the pretension of a luxury brand (why wear a watch that has the stigma of potentially being a knockoff?). This is an excellent value quality chronograph for under $1,000 CAD. Eventually I want to graduate to a Grand Seiko, a very sought after and admired luxury watch by experts (and better than any Rolex which I think are overrated and over-marketed) but those are over $10k and definitely worth it. In the meantime, this Seiko Speedtimer and my other Seiko will do just fine.

The SEIKO SSC813 watch was purchased as a gift. The design is very high end and it looks great when worn casually or with professional work attire. It fit well, and my husband said it was comfortable, lightweight, and easy to adjust. This is a solid watch and a great value for the price.

Es un crono solar muy bonito. Estéticamente tiene similitud con el daytona pero es absurdo compararlos. Queda muy bien en muñeca pequeña. La mia es de 17 y me queda perfecto. El día se nota demasiado hundido. Lo de que te diga el nivel de carga es muy chulo. La correa está bien pero no se integra al 100% con la caja. El bisel no es cerámico, es pintado. La luminiscencia es muy buena. Es un reloj muy recomendable, ideal para diario.

Es uno de los seikos mas hermosos que tengo, lo busqué por mucho muchísimo tiempo y finalmente lo tengo
