    Seiko have announced a new size option for the solar divers: 41mm. So far a black dial / bezel (SNE597P1) & a Pepsi bezel will be available

    I guess I am the exception rather than the rule but I would prefer less of a taper. With an almost 43mm watch, it is at the upper end of what a 20mm works for, and when you taper that to 16mm the bracelet seems a little small for the watch in my opinion. Other than the taper, the bracelet looks great. I also have the Citizen Diver and wanted the bracelet for it but decided against it because of the same taper.

      I have to say it is really comfortable. I got one.

    I’ve had the 38mm SNE575 Solar for over a year now. Love the watch, but hate the bracelet that came with it. Replaced it with a rubber strap…made it a bit better, but still didn’t wear it much. Thankfully, not long ago, you came out with 2 bracelet replacements. I bought the “J” version. I now love the watch and wear it all the time. Thanks!

    You sold me. Bought it. Was not sure about the taper to 16mm but I can’t get over how comfortable the watch is after I put it on. I was like…wow that is comfortable.

    Thanx for the innovation Marc. No need for me to shop for a bracelet when I clean out your inventory to build my first watch. The 20mm/ 16mm is definitely worth intense thought. Aaand @ the price point mentioned, it’s a no brained. Thx again and all the best!! brt

    I always put mine on sailcloth straps with deployant clasps from Artem. Much more comfortable than bracelets, and smart looking but still waterproof.

    Hi Marc and everyone around, I have an honest question, which of the Seiko Solar Divers do you prefer? The 38mm or the 42.8mm?

    • @nealhamamura4263
      @nealhamamura4263 5 місяців тому +1

      I got the 42.8mm. I have a 7.25” wrist. It fists perfectly. The 38mm would be too small.

    • @inCanada55
      @inCanada55 5 днів тому

      My 42mm SNE591 wears beautifully on my 6.75" wrist. It wears smaller than the 42.8mm diameter might suggest. I'm normally in the 40mm camp, but this Seiko fits great, perhaps because of its small dial surface (30mm), thin profile (only 10.7mm) and lug-to-lug span of approx. 49mm. The watch, with its Sub-like looks, refinements (chamfered flanks), high-end feel (except for the bracelt), and specs, is fantastic. Unfortunately, not so fantastic is the OEM bracelet. I've ordered the "Islander" multi-link (aka Jubilee-style) bracelet from Long Island Watch and, based on the specs, I'm anticipating a notable improvement over the OEM bracelet (which doesn't taper at all, is rattly as heck, and has Seiko's ubiquitous cheapo stamped deployment clasp and hollow end-links that scream novelty watch.) Hard to understand why Seiko, for the few dollars more that most would be willing to pay, hasn't 'machined' (vs stamped) a proper clasp and end-links for such an otherwise capable and good-looking timepiece. Long Island Watch's 20mm "Islander" bracelet will hopefully be the work-around for that deficiency. TBD

    I wish your Orient Mako oester bracelet have an Orient logo on the clasp.
    That would be MUST HAVE for me.

  • @thegorn
    @thegorn Рік тому +1

    I've given up on Seiko. Terrible specs, terrible price. For these bracelets, 3 holes of microadjust is satisfactory for a jubilee style bracelet as the links are short. For oyster style it's not enough. Need 4 as a bare minimum but prerably 6. Half links are extremely useful as well.
