Seiko 5 Sports SRPK17 review
Тәжірибелік нұсқаулар және стиль
My impressions on the 55th anniversary reissue model after the first week. Also compare it to an other 60's Seiko 5 reinterpretation, the SNK381 MAC-V SOG Vietnam war style field watch.

Using the crown to wind the watch is difficult, *but* the Seiko 5s were intended to be a person’s only watch. The assumption is that a person would wear this every day since it has enough water resistance for sporting activities. I’m happy Seiko stayed true to the original. This is one re-issued that Seiko hasn’t screwed up. The watch band is painful to size, but I like it. I did buy a razor bracelet, and it looks quite retro with it. Nice review!

Thanks! Yes, I also love the main design idea behind these seiko 5s. It brought automatics to the masses at that time. I'm quite used to the bracelet at this point. It would looks cool on a razor!
Sexiest watch ever made by Seiko. I have two of them. One for carrying, the other one I´ll keep unboxed.

Good decision, second hand prices have allready gone up, it will be a future classic soon.. The design come from one of the golden years of Seiko, when they made some of the most beautiful and remarkable watches.
Have you seen the Seiko honda sports club collaboration just seen the blue one looks amazing

Yes, I saw them, but the dials are too busy and colorful for my taste. I prefer more simple and clean looking dial designs. And I think Seiko is too lazy for using this SKX case everywhere. But the Honda Cub dials are definately unique.
Thanks for nice sharing
Is it pins and collars or regular pins?

It has regular pins.
Hi, How did you remove the pins on the bracelet? Push or screw?

@@at1m6nn I tried pushing in the direction of the arrows shown on the bracelet but failed. I'm trying with a sim card pin. Maybe I need to push a little harder. Thanks a lot.

Does the bracelet pulls hair?

Just a little bit, but it's barely noticeable.

It does a little but not as much as you might think.
