 Everything about the design drew me onto the hype train. I absolutely love the color green, and the gold indices and cathedral hands match the green of the dial so well. 3.

Seiko "Alpinist" (SARB017) - 39.5mm: I'd seen and read a lot of hype about this watch during the early months of my watch addic-- er, hobby. Everything about the design drew me onto the hype train. I absolutely love the color green, and the gold indices and cathedral hands match the green of the dial so well

[SOTC] Don't see too many ladies' collections on here!

 I hope Amazon gets a ton of units back in stock for the same price I bought it, so that people could finally get this nice watch for a decent price again.

25 on July 25th (or 24th depending where you are) when Amazon had some stock which got depleted within 8 or 9 hours. This is the most it should cost, and NOT close to $500. The overpricing and artificial stock limitation of this model is quite annoying. Nice, unique design with great colors, and importantly, a high quality mechanism that's actually pretty quiet, are the main desirable features of this watch

 The overpricing and artificial stock limitation of this model is quite annoying. Nice, unique design with great colors, and importantly, a high quality mechanism that's actually pretty quiet, are the main desirable features of this watch. Yes, the colors are even nicer in real life than in any picture or video you're gonna find, regardless of your monitor's quality. If you want it for its looks, there's no way you could be disappointed

Beautiful, usually greatly overpriced watch with a high quality mechanism, a ridiculously bad compass feature, and a lousy strap

[Seiko] SNKL23J1 my first watch after learning how I got swindled by MVMT

One small let down

[Zeppelin] 100 Years Zeppelin ED.1 - What are your thoughts?

Mine was sold by Amazon and I was relieved to see that it was totally new and authentic. It runs fast by around 15 seconds per day, but anyone buying this should know what they’re getting with this movement. I’m pretty thrilled to have the mythical Alpinist. I hope Amazon can continue selling these for others to enjoy, though stock must be running low

Sold by Amazon is definitely authentic - get one before they run out

[Seiko] Got my first automatic watch!

 I suppose this one isn't either - that faux crocodile strap, while real leather, is a little stiff. But then again, it appears to be treated with some sort of extra waterproofing, so perhaps that explains it's less than supple feel. But the rest of this watch is so balanced and finely executed that in my mind it's much closer to 5 stars than 4.  Grab one of these while you can; Seiko has unwisely discontinued further production of this watch, which has already developed something of a cult following among watch aficionados

 But the rest of this watch is so balanced and finely executed that in my mind it's much closer to 5 stars than 4.  Grab one of these while you can; Seiko has unwisely discontinued further production of this watch, which has already developed something of a cult following among watch aficionados. This is one of the few timepieces in this price range that is likely to appreciate in value over time.  FYI: the compass bezel feature on the Alpinist is not a true magnetic compass

  Such a beautiful, unusual watch. The green sunburst dial is striking and photographs don't really do justice to how it plays with the light, especially natural light in the out of doors, where this watch was designed to be. That dial and the inner rotating compass bezel (operated via the second crown at the 4 o'clock position) make this a very unusual timepiece. The 39mm case size follows vintage proportions (this would have been considered a fairly large watch 30 years ago) and looks great even on my freakishly small wrists

  The sapphire crystal (a rarity on sub $500 Seikos), Diashock technology and impressive 200 meter water resistance rating are nice features and combine to make this an unusually rugged mechanical watch. Which makes perfect sense given it's original target market: outdoor adventurers operating in some pretty harsh alpine environments. Yet the watch's classical design - especially those cathedral hands - allow it to wear reasonably well for dressier occasions.  I normally give products I like no more than a 4 star rating because few are absolutely perfect

 First, account for daylight savings time: if it's the summer months, you'll want to fall back one hour to get an accurate compass reading (either by physically resetting the time, or mentally accounting for it when you take the initial bearing). Next, position the watch dial so that the hour hand is pointing straight to the sun. South will be half way between the hour hand and 12 noon. Use the Alpinist's secondary crown to align the 'South' marker on the inner bezel with due south and that inner bezel will now show true bearings in every direction

A modern day mechanical classic + an old Boy Scout trick for using your watch as a compass

[SOTC] 6.25" wrist collection, size matters.

 I guess the compass, which is kind of cool but also unnecessary, adds to the thickness. I came to terms with this and though it is kind of thick, I came to accept it.  It’s kind of cool to have the compass as a smooth moving little apparatus controlled by an eye catching crown, all part of the design of the watch. It looks interesting

  It’s kind of cool to have the compass as a smooth moving little apparatus controlled by an eye catching crown, all part of the design of the watch. It looks interesting. But I’ll never use it or have any use for it and can barely even see it.  I did love the way the second hand moved so effortlessly and smoothly around the dial

 It’ll break in and will be fine. And I’ve had similar quality in a Hamilton I owned, also criticized by reviewers. But the brown complements the green and gold nicely, and unless inspected closely can be acceptable at worst. My friend likes it alot with a bracelet he saw it on in someone’s posting

  Pretty much immediate disappointment. The green face is probably the most intriguing part of this watch, yet to me, live and in person, it became the most dislikable. With the gold numerals and markings, and the shiny stainless steel, it was just too much for me, too overwhelming, and almost looked like an ostentatious and cheap watch designed to look like a fancy, exquisite watch.  Surprisingly the leather band was the least of my concerns

Not for me, but a popular watch...
