Thanks to all for the positive response!!! Since you all seem to like the idea and since i love making these vids I'm currently working on the next video's. I love to hear from you guys what you're suggestions may be. What straps would you like to see? Which brands are killer and not in my collection yet? I'll be moving away from aliexpress and into the 20 to 60 bucks mid-tier straps since I feel this would suit my mid-tier watch collection better. I like straps that fit different watches, so 'watchmonsters' in a way. Let's keep in touch! Alex.

It's fun to try some straps and get suggestions back. So if you have some, let me know! More watches to come, more straps too. 🙂
You, sir, provide a public service! Thank you! One of the aspects I value most in a watch is strap versatility. Therefore, before purchasing any watch, I typically search for compatible straps and then decide whether to proceed with the purchase."
Glad i Came across this video. It gives me pictures of how well straps will fit into my Seiko. Thank you
Really cool man! I just bought my first automatic watch, this model exactly and the saleswoman - who was very helpful all the way - actually told me that this watch doesn’t go well with leather straps but you just proved her wrong, looks amazing! Thanks for the videos 🤜🏻🤛🏻
Thanks for doing this video. Such a great opportunity to see a watch with different straps.
It’s great to see the watch matches well with almost all the straps.
This video just opened my eyes to the wide world of the love child of nato and leather straps, the Leather Nato Straps! Great video!
Really cool. Have it on my wrist right now. Goes well with literally anything. Looks especially good with brown leather. Cheers!

4 watches with 10 straps is 40 different combinations. Assuming they’re all the same lug width. Adding only 1 strap gives 4 more combinations. I think straps are the best way to add variety to your collection.

Very cool strap show and cool watch choices on your two vids. I was really surprised by how well this dresskx works on a rubber waffle strap. I don't have any first hand experience with these 'new' Seiko 5s but in a vacuum my first idea would be to try to pair it with a jubilee bracelet. As a general suggestion, even though it can be quite annoying to set up, maybe add some links for the straps in the description for quick reference. And as a second suggestion, despite the obvious TikTok talent, don't do it :P. And my vote is on the 62mas.

Very nice video! i'd like to ask u something, i'm a neophyte in this field, so, i'd start my mini collection with this one, the question is: how can i understand if a strap fits with the watch ? because i think i'll buy some caucciù strap in the future, and i would figure it out before buying, i was thinking that, if it is possible to remove the strap that the watch has when it comes so you can put whatever strap you want, am i wrong ? thanks in advance
Strap fashion show is cool thank you. Like to see how a carbon fibre looks, also milanese and Uncle Seiko Razorwire styles? Cheers 🙏
Hi, Thanks for the great video - 30 time is I’ve just bought a black faced Seiko five field watch and I’m trying to find the right strap to match. Your video shown me several options so thank you: what exactly is the canvas strap that you show at around 4:30? I’ve taken off the Seiko bracelet as personally I’m not keen on steel bracelets and it currently has padded brown leather which looks okay but a little formal, so that worn canvas strap looks perfect for the look I’m going for. Thanks again from a new subscriber.

I own both: adore the SRPE61, disappointed with the SRPG27. To me the DressKX is a totally authentic, iconic, flawlessly executed and elegant design with a crystal-clear concept: minimalist designer interpretation of the sports watch theme. Not only the best Seiko 5 but one of the most beautiful Seikos ever and just as iconic and purposeful as a Submariner. The SPRG feels more a half-hearted compromise between an elegant post-war field watch and a contemporary, clunky sports watch. I am particularly struggling with its inadequate 40 mm size, needless weight and bulk (175 mm wrist). Night readability is comparably poor and there is always some haze warping over its dial from its single-domed crystal's unusually strong reflections. It certainly has that distinct retro Hamilton charm but I'd only get it if you want that exact style and can pull off its non-vintage size. Just saying.
