    I believe the SKX is great for what it brought to the table historically. It was one of the best value watches at its time, one of the FIRST best value quality watches. For all subjective purposes SKX is great. However objectively there are now superior watches within the same price point which offer greater features.

    I have managed to buy a barely used one for £90, which makes it a decent buy. It's an iconic watch, but for the £369 which is the retail price in the UK, it's probably not so good. Whilst not ISO tested, the best divers watch I own is a Parnis 200m. It has a sapphire window, an auto Miyota movement, a ceramic 90 click bezel with a great click, 316L stainless well finished case, beautiful guilloche dial, and decent quality stainless bracelet. Bought new for £75.

    Top tip with bracelets. If 12 and 6 are going to have uneven links. Have the 12 with the fewer links. Attach the clasp with the fixed part at 12. Have the micro adjustments on the 6 side. Should be much more comfortable that way. It is for me anyway.

My favourite watch of theirs is their mesh chronograph watch. Excellent videos, very informative and much less subjective than many other watch channels that mostly like to throw an expensive watch in your face and review nothing but their price tags.

    Sometimes smaller is better and in that Jody I am with you despite a 7.5" inch wrist. The Mini me version is far more aesthetically pleasing and would for me be perfect size. EXCEPT FOR: I don't do polished anything its a magnet for scratching - some of us just how shall I say have a tendency for being tough on watches. Why oh why would a dive watch or for that matter a tool watch be polished. Add to that Hardlex is crap and despite not having had an aversion to hardened mineral (Armourlite's is the only one I trust it really is scratchproof after 5 years) me I would be upgrading that to a sapphire and they have them on eBay found em yesterday by chance for Seiko with AR if I recall. Seiko if they really had a clue could upgrade this for all their watches you can get sapphires under $20 so surely they could reduce that cost. I think its a Seiko thing like they have proprietary Hardlex so they use it. I think if they sold products with sapphire they could generate greater sales and have an even superior product but hey thats me. Great review as always. Waiting patiently for the custom build video; no pressure just bored in Adelaide.

    Actually, while sapphire is more scratch proof, it is FAR more likely to shatter from impact than Hardlex. Since the SKX is a tool watch as you said, I think Hardlex was the right choice. A scratch is one thing, but if a crystal shatters from impact while underwater, well, you know the rest.

    I had an SKX007 and really liked it -- except the chapter ring was misaligned. Grrrrr!!!!! It bugged me so much that I flipped the watch and drowned my sorrows with a properly aligned Turtle, Samurai, Tuna, and Sumo. But.....something about not having one in my collection kept bugging me. How can a genuine Seiko fanboy not have one? Sacrilege! So I bit my prided and an SKX009 is scheduled to be delivered this afternoon. I really hope that this one is aligned, which with Seiko I know is a hit-or-miss proposition.

    Both myself and my flatmate have become ‘victims’ of your excellent channel and each bought one of your recommendations during the past month. And now I’m tempted with the Skx013 as my first dive watch - esp due to my 6.5in wrists. I agree with you - imo it just looks a bit more expensive and better proportioned than it’s bigger brother. Looking forward to seeing what you get as a replacement 😉

    I have 6.5 inch wrists too and the first diver I bought was the SNZF17 and still love it. Then I decided I'd like to add the SKX013 to the collection. For me it was a mistake and I quickly returned it for the SKX007. While it is heavier than the 013, for a diver, it looks like the woman's version of the 007. Not that I have an issue with my masculinity mind you. I wear a 34mm Jaeger-LeCoultre and 34mm Movado. But while the 013 is smaller in diameter, it is nearly the same thickness so it felt even more top heavy to me than the 007 because the diameter to thickness ratio is even more pronounced, if that makes sense, so IMO its not as well proportioned as the 007. Try and wear both of them before you commit to either one. Even with my puny wrists, if I adjust the bracelet so that it's snug enough, it won't rattle or feel even remotely top heavy, and the jubilee bracelet allows you to wear it a bit snugger because it conforms so nicely to the contours of your wrist while remaining VERY comfortable.

    Steven Wymor Thanks for the feedback. Makes sense the 013 could feel top heavy. Now I’m leaning more to the Orient Mako ii as I prefer the dial to the Seikos or perhaps a Tissel.

    jacc88888 Have you spoken to the Tissel fairy because you need to ask to be put on the waiting list if you’re interested in the Sub homage. Look at the Seiko SNZF17 too as it has hints of the Submariner but with Seiko’s unique take. It’s of course not a certified diver at only 100m water resist, but I’ve worn mine in the shower and swam in a saltwater pool and the ocean without issue - I LOVE mine. I agree the Orient Mako II is also nice plus it has hand winding and hacking if that’s important to you. Too many watches, not enough wrists. Stay away from the Phoibos in my opinion. Bought a PY007C and returned it. The build quality seemed sub par for the price. And I’ve decided I’m not really an homage kinda guy. I’d rather have something that does its own thing than an exact copy of someone else’s design. Just my 2¢.

    Steven Wymor My flatmate waited less than 3 months for his Tissel and it DOES look good despite feeling quite a heavy watch. I would probably go for a 200m watch just for extra water resistance ‘insurance’ for when in the sea etc. The Seiko SNZF17 is remarkable value though.

    I enjoy my Seiko SKX009J, but I too must admit that I find the aluminum Pepsi bezel insert to be a bit on the cheap size. I'm not a huge fan of the bezel itself. I think a ceramic Pepsi bezel insert and a nice coin edge bezel would make a big difference on this watch. Then again....for around $200 bucks, it's hard to expect more than what you get with what is already a pretty decent watch overall.

    Vostok Amphibia ruined my watch collection. And I was doing so good, buying a different watch, maybe two, each month. Until.. I found my Amphibia. Now my heart is just not into checking out other brands, at least not as much. I try to wear other watches, really I do, however the Amphibia always wins out, day after day. Shame on Vostok.....

    The K-35, or K-39 models? Honestly, I don't care for the looks of either. I like the basic Komandirskies with 2414 mvt. (I have 2 and both are very accurate, I even swim with one without problem), butnow my favorite is the Amphibia, 420 case model. Lately I've been checking out a Parnis Pilot, 44m. I like the simple, classy look. I have a Parnis Power Reserve which is beautiful and very accurate. A watch that gets overlooked is a "Kinyued". The quality vs. cost is amazing, in the 40-50 dollar range. If not familiar, you may want to give them a look. Also, I enjoy all of your reviews, great job, and keep it up my friend.
