Mens RA-AA0003R19B

Overall, after a couple of weeks, I can report I am extremely satisfied with this watch, my first automatic. It has many features not typically found at this price point on similar Seikos, for example, sapphire crystal, screw-down crown, hacking and hand winding, the lume is great, and so offers industry-leading value for money. This stands as easily one of the best sub-300 USD / 200 GBP watches out there. I was debating between this great red Kamasu and the gun metal grey so-called "Dress-KX" from Seiko. Design wise, I would prefer a less busy face with a simpler logo and less text, but that's my personal preference. The crown is small. It can be a bit of a fiddle to unscrew/screw back in given its small size, and I would have prefered something more substantial (Seiko 5s typically seem to have quite fat crowns). Also the bezel is polished with indentations only on the top angle, making it fairly slippery. Great once you have set it, but a bit awkward if you like to twist your bezel. I bought via Amazon US and got English and Spanish on the day wheel, though I am told from the European marketplace you will get a seconday-language as French.

I have wanted to upgrade my watch to a proper automatic watch for a while and found this to be a decent price point. It is stylish and wears well. Comping from only fashion watches this is a great start to having an automatic movement watch without going for one of the big brands. I wear this as my workday watch as an IT tech and had picked up a few scratches here and there on the bracelet but that is to be expected. The face of the watch has held up well and has had no marking to it at all. Wear it daily or it will run out of wind after about 2 days sat on the side but this is the expectation of an automatic. All in all, I can't fault it one bit for what I use it for.

For the money you can’t go wrong, I’d go as far to say this is the best automatic watch around for under £200. I own a few expensive watches but this is now my daily and it’s fantastic, turns lots of heads. Watch loses about 15 seconds a day which is fantastic! Delivered really quickly too!

Beautiful watch. Probably THE most beautiful dial I have ever owned. I keep checking the time just so I can look at the watch! Size is ok for my 6.5 inch wrist. Bezel is creamy yet just stiff enough. Accuracy is fine as mechanical and I never expect perfection there. Excellent value for money. Bracelet is ok, comfortable and has lots of micro adjust points BUT it's incredibly hard to remove links! Maybe it's just my bracelet but I broke my adjusting tool on this bracelet. Just really hard to push the pins out and I have stiff bracelets in the past but this is something else. I would still recommend the watch however as it is soooo gorgeous. Thinking about the teal one now.

It's a really nice looking watch, I love the red dial. Lume is good. Looks great on the supplied bracelet and on a black rubber strap. Mine runs about 15 seconds a day fast which isn't great but I can live with it. The bracelet has hollow end links and a pressed clasp which I don't like, I bought a milled clasp from AliExpress for now but will probably get the Miltat Jubilee eventually. https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B084FW36CK/?coliid=IV760OV9R6926&colid=2J9EZ7QU3CHKZ&psc=1&ref_=list_c_wl_lv_ov_lig_dp_it One thing I don't like is the crown, it's too small and the crown guards are too big making it hard to get hold of. update I forgot to mention it arrived missing links, I think someone must have took some links and returned it

Exceeded my expectations. The acuracy was meant to be -10 +20 seconds a day, I found out I get better than that over a week. The lume is fantastic and I love the colour of the bezel. Power reserve was meant to be 40 hours, my gets 45 without winding it, just from wearing it all day. Japanese quality well priced. Definitelly recommend it

Great watch exceptional quality and looks great on

Awesome 👍
