Make one without a date window.

Buy a Tudor if you want this watch without a date window. Date window is essential for a daily wear watch for me, and I for one would take this over a black bay

@@umassabbott yes cos God knows when one is diving...you need to know the date! LOL

Lose the date window, keep it at 200m, make it 37mm, make the bracelet similar to the Tudor 54 & for God's sake bring back the grey dial (spb143) & you've got yourself a winner Seiko. Hell you could even make a quartz version so it's thinner & way more accurate.

I agree with all this. It'll be nice to see a smaller quartz version. Thanks for the comment.

I like the date better at 3, but this still looks great

They should have dropped the day function all together. It would look better

My dady bought one NKUWAN and he loves it. It had been there for over 10 years when he went out with it.

Unless they stated it, the bezel insert might be steel. The current model is steel bezel, not alum.

If only it's a no date model With no 3 days text Then only I would consider selling my 143

I was going to mention it in the video. No date would have been better, but it's not a realistic ask because Seiko would have to make a new movement for it. Thanks for the comment.

Does anyone know what strap is on his 143? I love the texture and would throw a blue one on my spb213 if I could find that style

It's the Green Tropical Nylon Strap. Comes in different colors as well.

i love you so much! I recently just found your amzwatch and i’m in love!! Your videos are so fun and you energy is just MWAH! keep living your life

149 owner here. I don't like the date location switch. And indeed less clutter. I would like to see less dots on the bezel for instance. Also can we get a beads of rice or something else as additional bracelet? It is difficult to match the special treated metal of Seiko with after market bracelets.

Good point. I'd like to see more bracelet options from Seiko as well. Thanks for the feedback.

I like the stealth dial-colour-matched date window on this new model. I miss the grey dial though.

Hopefully, Seiko will bring back the gray dial.

There are too many guilded watches. I want them all! :D

I wish it was 42 mm. That's why I still prefer the SPB051 053 series 62 Mas.

The grey dial to me is the biggest miss here. I'm OK with the date at 4:30 which would be the other controversial change. I'd prefer the date at 6 if they are going to move it, but I'm OK with the 4:30. Now the released colors are nice but the grey dial feels like an essential for any "62 Mas" reinterpretation. That said it's completely posssible we will eventually see it.

You're absolutely right. Knowing Seiko, there's a strong possibility they'll issue a gray dial somewhere down the line. Thanks for the comment.

I don't think so. The same pictures are showing on Seiko's global websites. But thanks for chiming in.

I’m loving the blue 👍🏻

I just love when I see "special edition" "limited edition" or "limited run" on a Seiko watch; it means I get to pay $1100 for a $500 watch. 😅

bring back the old date window at 3

I have to say that NKUWAN 's watches is amazing!

The Seiko SPB143 has an engraved/brushed stainless steel insert that has a super hard coating applied for scratch resistance. The new models have basic painted aluminum insert that will not be as durable. For the $1,300 asking price, Seiko should have put on a brushed (matte) finished ceramic bezel. Would have achieved the same look with much stronger durability and scratch resistance. The aluminum bezel insert will scratch super easy on these new models. I absolutely detest aluminum inserts on dive watches.

I stay with my 143!

The 143 is hard to beat 👍

The thickness is still not enough.

A little too small for my large wrist. 42 mm is ideal these days

I'll pass without even elaborating, my SJE093 is that good even like it slightly more than my 036:043 which I paid more but to thick and heavy. The rust so on my SJE093 is also much better than the 143 which I sold as well.

Very nice watch. Enjoy wearing it.

A good summary. I will keep my grey dial SPB143. I would rather have had no date, than the round date window. I also don't like the 3 day text on the dial. It is still a 6bpm movement, so no big change there.

Thanks for the feedback. A no date version would be nice, but Seiko do not have a no date movement option at the moment. Enjoy your 143.

The. Backdrop of New York is to illustrate how deep people are in debt.

Round date window? Why is Seiko doing this on all their new watches?

Far too expensive for what it is. It needs a high beat movment at the minimum

Don't count on it. They are still very desirable.

It does not matter whether it can dive at a depth of 200 or 300 m. I'm not going diving anyway. In fact, I don't even take dive watches with me in the shower. The location of the date indication has no added value. I'll stick with my SPB 147. Top watch.

The percentage of people that go diving and wear diver watches is a very very small number. The 147 is a sweet watch 👍 thanks for the feedback.

What you’re missing is that 99% of people who will like and buy this watch won’t be buying it for diving but rather will be wearing it in urban environments like Manhattan because it’s a cool watch. You should know this. Or were you just playing dumb for comment bait? Well it worked on me haha

This new release ain’t it. They should’ve made the new marine master 300m with these dimensions and left this spb range with 200m at 39mm diameter and a slimmer case.

Fair point. Although I think the limiting factor to go slimmer is that 6R movement, but, I might be wrong. Thanks for the feedback.

Not worth anything like the price. Should have the 8r movement, sapphire bezel insert, and please don't tell me it has a hardlex crystal. Seiko has lost the plot.

Amazing-looking watches. The picture of New York is related to the fashion and style it shares with wearing the gorgeous watch Who cares if the watch is technically engineered to handle depth of the ocean,. Do you wear your diver watch only for scuba diving or everywhere else while making a statement...
