they must do a Pogue reissue !

Might be a little bit harder to do that; they don't currently have a comparable automatic movement to the original, and even if they did, it would cost well over $1k. I don't think they have a suitable mecha-quartz movement on hand either.

You've *got* to get one of these, Britt! (But you might find your husband "borrowing" it more often than usual.)

Obligatory bemoaning of the lack of sapphire.

Saw the review last nite & today...the date of the release...I was at the GS Boutique collecting my SBGV245 just back from polishing in Japan. Tried on the new 55th Anniversary & immediately bought it. This is the coolest Seiko 5 I've ever seen. Extremely comfortable too. Definitely a winner. If it wasn't for the review I would have missed it!

Been looking for a vintage Seiko ever since I visited a little vintage shop in Camden Market a while ago. They had a couple of Seiko King Quartz and few Seiko 5's from the 60's and 70's. Something about the design just appealed to me. As soon as I saw this watch, I knew I needed to buy it, and buy it I shall...and probably the Pogue if it comes out next year.

Mine arrived today and I finished adjusting the metal bracelet. It fits nice on my small wrist and feels comfortable. This is my second metal bracelet watch and my first series 5 Sports. My bezel is bi-directional unlike what Seiko USA says (uni-directional) in the specs. Love the groovy 60’s design and this watch is made in Japan. Cheers! 😊

I bought mine 2nd hand on eBay (never worn) for £300 and I couldn't be happier. Most of my watches are chunky divers and this is a lovely change for me. Felt a bit small compared to my other watches at first but it's actually perfectly sized. Love the bracelet as well but I ordered a milanese this evening to see how that looks. Would love for them to do the pogue too. 5 sports speedtimer chrono from the 60's/70's would also be amazing

I tried it on my wrist last week. The case is lovely. I nearly bought it but ended up getting my second and so completing my seiko 5 sports peanuts collection.

Great watch and hopefully a start of reissue models. Thanks for your time and sharing this with us all.

I love this! What a great reissue! They’ve nailed the look and it’s really exciting to imagine the potential of that case. Like you said, a Pogue reissue can’t be too far away, right 🙏 Even the packaging looks amazing too! I think I’d prefer a modern clicky bezel to go with the updated movement but you can’t have it all. What a great show 👏👏👏👏

I got one. The nice thing about the friction fit bezel and lack of chapter ring (polished rehaut) is that this is the first Seiko I’ve owned that doesn’t trigger my OCD. 😂

I second your enthusiasm for this watch, with the lume glowing it looks super cool! TY

love it ! hopefully more reissues come out like this one. true to the original design. 👍

Great review. Just pre-ordered one. For anyone interested Arizona Fine Time is taking pre-orders. I only mention this because I was having a hard time finding a shop outside of the US still taking pre-orders.

I showed this to my wife now. She said she doesn’t quite like it because it looks like something an astronaut would wear. Made me want to buy it instantly 😂

Awesomeness right there! Thanks for sharing! ✌🏼😎👍🏼

Love the watch. Love the video. Good balance between humor and info. I can see immediately you love what your are doing. Keep up the good work!

love re-issues, particularly when they are not tiny. This is a great size, not oversized by todays taste, or that 2010's fad, nor undersized by modern taste like many watches from pre-2000.

Got mine, absolutely in love with it.

Great review Russ, definitely a stunner and it got your wifes seal of approval! I have been shying away from Seiko for sometime, but I might just add the SRPK17K1 to my collection.

Only started watching your channel in the last couple of months as I have started collecting watches again, must say I love the enthusiasm and the down to earth approach. Just love Casio (got a couple I used to own as a teenager and love them to bits, AE1200 Royale is on the wrist right now) and Seiko, well always wanted one.....this video inspired me to get a SRPK17, been damn hard to find one though as they as I was a bit late to seeing this and they have understandably sold like "hot cakes". Found a new one from a US website SEIKO dealer, it's on it's way, should be getting it in the next couple of days.....exciting....thanks MWC 🙂👍

This is a brilliant release. I have no complaints about this watch, but I do hope they spread the cost of redeveloping the case out by releasing a new limited edition of the blue version of the original. I don't know if you've seen it, but I really love that one. It's always a treat when your wife actually likes a watch too.

Ah, so this IS it. Yea. I saw this on Seiko’s site about a month ago… still shopping through various shops online to get best deal for a pre-order. Definitely was instantly inspired to hunt for this one. My last Seiko was actually the equally retro Kamen Rider Seiko 5 anniversary model that came out earlier this year which revived a different 70s Seiko 5 model style (but not quite a true reissue).

Excellent reissue by Seiko. I think when this watch is released officially it's going to fly off the shelves.

Had mine for 2 weeks, love it, I wish they would use the old style 5 badge on the newer 5s

Just to say that I saw your Short on this watch last night and today I bought one!

I like this a lot, I will definitely be looking to get one. Super video as ever.

Received mine today , awesome watch ❤

Blue is my favorite color and this new seiko 5 will be great in royal blue or blue navy dial.

Finally! What we've all been waiting for Seiko to do! 😍

Absolutely love this watch!!!!

I live in China and I purchased mine last week from the Seiko flagship store for CNY 2450. About 266 GBP. I must say that it’s really a nice watch and in my opinion it’s worth the price.

Nice my friend!

OMG what a 'heads up'! Another super entertaining review - And I only just noticed - you call your video a 'show' - perfect! Generally, I'm not a Seiko 5 fan (except originals). I'm still hung up on the demise of the 200m specs, 'get over it' yes I am trying, and I have got a couple. But this is on another level! It's a REAL Seiko 5! Love it! Shall I / shan't I? I don't know, I'm trying to 'cut down' you see..(but just unboxed a new watch today).. BUT the prospect of a Pogue next year - I'm missing a good original and REALLY want this - if it happens - what foresight you have (I hope)!! Thanks again for the 'Show'! Best from Perth Australia!

I agree with the Trouble and Strife.

I can't wait to get my preorder! It was an instant get!

I’d definitely buy a pogue I have a 73’ pogue chrono would love a modern one.

Awesome. I should get one since I was born in 68. Wearing my Seiko 5 field watch today. Great video as always.

Speaking of price increases and SKX clones, I wonder what your thoughts are on the SSK GMTs? More features but for £400 rrp I found it a bit too pricey. That being said i got mine for 40% off at Black Friday so I bit the bullet and I'm pretty chuffed!
