Amazon.com Product Review

Hidden behind the Seiko Men's Automatic Stainless Steel Watch's classic analog design are high-tech progressive elements like a day and date function in two languages (English and Spanish) and precise 21-jewel Japanese automatic movement, a feature that means this watch never needs batteries or winding; it is powered automatically by the movement of your arm. Time of day is displayed on a black analog dial that features luminous silver-toned hands and white Arabic hour and minute markers. The dial also features a day and date window at the three o'clock position, and is protected by a Hardlex crystal and backed by a stainless steel case. Keeping all of this securely on your wrist is a stainless steel link bracelet that closes with a double-push-button fold-over safety clasp. Other features include a custom crown at the four o'clock position and water-resistance to 99 feet (30 meters).

This review is from: Seiko Men's SNK809K Automatic Stainless Steel Watch (Watch)
It's a good watch. I seriously question that this is actually a gray-market item as it didn't come with a manual, just a warranty card. I blame that more on Seiko, they don't sell all their models everywhere, so I half expected it when I got it.

It's just like the other SNK809K watches, but with a metal band. It's easily user adjustable, it's not a pin and collar band, all you'll need is a push-pin or a paperclip. It's not a fancy band and does rattle a bit, but it has solid end links so it should at least stay together well. There are 3 micro adjustments on the band, so it should be easy to size it to your liking.

As for accuracy, it's a 7S26B movement. Mine ran fast for about the first week or so that I had it but it seems to have broken in and is keeping time spot on now, or at least less than +/- 1 sec a day so that I can't notice it. Since the movement is non-hacking, it's not for those very picky about being exactly correct. There is no hand winding...Read more

I bought this reading various reviews of how the hollow stainless steel band looked and felt cheap. So I was ready to buy a different strap but now having it on for two days I have to say- WOW! Not only is this accurate about +2 second a day but I love the military style and the band is pretty nice also. The only thing I do not like is not being able to wind the watch with the crown. The size of this watch is about right for me..... with 7.5" wrist.

This review is from: Seiko Men's SNK809K Automatic Stainless Steel Watch (Watch)
It ran too fast, it gained 7-8 minutes per hour! Unacceptable. I had a Tissot Seastar Automatic and it only gained a minute in 5 days. Was not expecting this from Seiko. I really liked the simple construction and design, I could have it's time adjusted in a jewelry store but wouldn't want to pay more when it should be working properly in first place. Not worth the time. I have to return in.
