Good watch

2026-01-11    -Anonymous

I was unsure of how well this watch will stand up to me and am still not certain.I wanted to get off of the watch battery treadmill so I tried an automatic .Took awhile to get used to such a thick watch and am trying to be conscious of the hardlex crystal.I use my hands at work and have usually worn something with a sapphire crystal.After several weeks of wearing I am happy with the accuracy adjusting once a month no big deal.The Hardlex does seem to handle to day to day knocks I just wish it was a sapphire crystal gladly would have paid the extra cost.I really like the watch all things considered it’s a good buy.

Love this watch. I use it for extreme sports and haven’t had a single scratch or issue. Tested on snow and salt water.

5.0 out of 5 stars Best mechanical watch for my everyday use, for the money.

2026-01-06    -Adrian Isberg

Short:I did opt. for this specific watch for the simple reasons:1) The brushed surface will make the watch look better longer, as scraches won't look as bad as on a polished watch.2) The other SRPGs with the brushed arabics don't have enough contrast and are not functional enough in my opinion, as they are too hard to read in poor light situasions.3) Ø 39.4 mm is very wearable on more or less any wrist.4) The NATO strap adds safety and if one does not like it, it's very easy to change out on this watch oneself with a inexpensive tool.5) The width of the straps for this watch is 20mm, that you find more or less any strap in, as it is a extremely commong width, making it easy to customize.6) The "sand like" color theme of the watch is very neutral yet stylish, and does not crash with anything I have in my wardrobe from hoodies to cashmire sweaters and from leather jackets to heavy winter jackets, can easily also be "dressed up" with for example a leather strap to match fancier clothing.7) I greatly enjoy watching the balance wheel moving through the back of the watch.8) The movement is fairly accurate and great value for the money, and if it were to break, the entire movement is affordable and easy for watchmakers to obtain.9) The day being showed next to the date is in for me a great and useful addition.10) The lume is different on the arms and the dial markings, and I think they look great together, especially with the sand color of the arabics and the arms.11) Sort of a negative, The Hardlex dome looks great, but is a step down from a safire crystal, but on the other side, it makes the watch more affordable. One can buy safire crystals for the watch (dobble domed and flat) with optional CR coating, something that is great if it gets scratched or otherwise damaged.Pure negatives:No S on the crown, only pure real negative for me, but absolutely not a deal breaker whatsoever. And for the price am I not complaining.Extra:After I researthing watches for picking a quality one as a gift for a familiy member, for a couple days, did I get pretty watch upsessed and spent my free time over the winter holiday looking around on all from dress watches to pilot and field watches. I learened a lot about the functional and historical aspects of Casio G-shock, Seiko, Tissot, Hamilton, Orient, Laco and others pretty far out of my range like Grand Seiko, Omega and Rolex. I am a student and didn't have too much to spend. What I study is heavily related to mechanics and physics and the idea of a no batteries, only physics watch got me extremely excited.After all I looked through did I end up wanting a watch that had a rich history, still were modern, were affordable, yet wanted something as inhouse (parts made by the manucafturere) as possible.In short, wanted the most bang for my buck.I ended up ordering the SNZG09J1, the Japanese and green version of one of the two predecessors of this SRPG watch I am reviewing, this predecessor did I however end up returning. It's style is similar, just a bit less "style clean" and it has a bulletproof but slightly more dated movement, as you cannot hack (stop the secound arm) nor wind "charge up" the barrle in the watch through turning the crown on the older watch.Also the finnishes were of a much lower quality as it when new, was a much cheaper watch, and it was polished between the lugs, making it look less thought through and lazy in my eyes.The not being able to set the second arm was the major deal breaker for me.The SRPG35 was for my with import (25%) and transport to Norway around 80 USD more expensive than the predecessor, but with everything mentioned did that become a pretty simple choice for me.

Keeps good time, looks good on the wrist.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great Field Watch with Classic Seiko Quality

2026-01-20    -baconpancakes1987

The Seiko SRPG35 is an excellent field watch that delivers both style and function at a great value. Right out of the box, the NATO strap feels comfortable and durable, making it a great everyday wear option. The case finish is clean and well-executed, giving it a refined yet rugged look.One of my favorite features is the clear case back, which lets you see the internal mechanical movement—a nice touch for watch enthusiasts. The crystal is very clear, making it easy to read the time at any angle, and the lume is fantastic in low-light conditions, ensuring great visibility when needed.The watch runs very quietly, which I appreciate, and it just feels great on the wrist—not too heavy, not too light, just right for a field watch. It also includes a dual-language date function (English and French), which works well for me, but if you're looking for English and Japanese, make sure to find a listing that explicitly offers that.Overall, this is a well-built, reliable, and stylish field watch that stays true to Seiko’s reputation. Highly recommended!

4.0 out of 5 stars Attractive watch with an easy to read dial.

A quality timepiece with an easy to read dial. However, it is thick especially with the type of band that doubles between the wrist and the watch. I would have liked a slimmer profile and a lighter weight. I changed the band to a more traditional style which lowered the watch to my wrist by enough for me to wear it without noticing its bulk. As far as accuracy it is acceptable but of course can't be compared to good quartz movement. I do appreciate the automatic movement and the price point. Overall a good value which I hope to enjoy for many years.

Awesome!!

1.0 out of 5 stars Did not run when not being worn

2026-01-30    -pagefish

I purchased this Seiko automatic 24 Jewel with high expectations for its legendary dependability and accuracy. It was not dependable. The watch would not run more than 10 hrs after being worn. I wore it 24 hrs for 3 days. I did this twice. Each time I took it off it stopped running after 10 hrs.Pros - it had a great look and was precisely accurate. Very disappointed with this time piece 4R36 from Japan.
