How I change battery?
@@nenanenica6783 lol it has no battery, it's an automatic
gorgeus, got it today and can't stop looking at it, my first mechanical watch
Congrats on a fantastic piece of horology 💪
I was so obsessed with the dial that I forgot to make a lume shot. The lume on this watch is SKX level, this thing shines BRIGHT! If you don't like everyday watches that have lume, well this one is not for you... I love it! You're always in for a nice surprise when you get inside after a walk in the sun :)
The lume is not made of radioactive right?
Your reviews are pretty interresting. It's great that's you always precisely describe the way a watch sits on a wrist. I didn't meet anyone on YT who does it as great as you do.
Thank you so much! I try to do a review exactly like I would like to watch them... except when I forget the lume shot :D And yes, having a 6 inch wrist, fit and comfort matters a lot to me - I figured out I'm not the only one. Thanks for watching!
@@TimedSquare I've got 6 inch wrist too, so I know exactly what are you taking about :) Keep on doing your work. Good content!
Love that UFO case😍 -I bought 5 different versions.. snxs80gold, snxs77blue "Superman", snxs73siver, snxs79dark grey and the ultra 70's gold watch snxl72 🕺😁🍻 . I then bought some 2x to put away as I believe any Seiko5 running a 7s26 movement is discontinued just like the skx007😐
I have one and i love it! Such great and fancy looking watch for that small of a price. And the best thing, it's fully automatic! No more quartz for me
Man, you produce some great reviews. I like that you’ve chosen some budget watches. Keep them coming !
Great daily driver which can be regulated to good accuracy. Mine was quite magnetised when it arrived from Amazon by post and running at +20spd. After demagnetising it now runs at +- 2 to 4spd worn which is amazing for a low cost automatic so worth checking yours with a compass.
@Alan Champagne I bought an inexpensive de-magnetizer off Amazon. There are vids on here showing how to use them. Mine works well.
@Alan Champagne whats your opinion on this watch? Its so beatiful to me, but i heard and read that after few months it breaks and stops working.
Do watches get magnetised in the postal service through the use of electronic scanners???
@@truthseeker8483
Seems possible. I had my 1962 Omega Seamster Deville returned by post after a full service in 2018 but it was running faster than when shown on the watchmakers completed service timgrapher picture. Again a quick Wiz over the demagnitiser & watch accuracy came back to +/- 2 sec per day. Excellent for a 60 year old automatic watch.
Great review of a classic!!
I mentioned this model in my SNX111 review and I do mention the shape of the case as one of the things I disliked. I am still fighting the urge to buy one, in blue or this grey
Thank you! I totally understand your point. On the one hand I LOVE this dial, on the other hand, this case... come on. It it was in a SNK393 case, it would be absolute perfect. Actually I got my SNK393 back from repair under guarantee (the movement was dead on arrival), I wonder if a switch is possible 🤔Thanks for watching!
@@TimedSquare :Between this model and the blue dial variant ( snxs 77 k1), i think about to buy myself !I have the posibility to check at my local store here in Romania and at the first sight i have more impressed by this gray dial variant than the blue dial one !This gray dial variant play with the light more beautifull than the blue one and is more sobre and serious !ps: And you know ..... gray/ black dial work perfect in every condition as a elegant watch than blue dial !With an black or brown strap looks amazing !The original bracelet is still ok and confortable (like the original bracelet of the SNX 111), and can also been warn as it is !Great watch ! I think in december i buy one ! Great review !Respect !
@@YGDification Thank you so much and totally agree with what you said. Cheers!
Yup. This dial will probably go into my SNK393 case some time in the future!
The Seiko SNKK71 is probably a better option for roughly the same price, nicer case.
I'm so glad I got the last one of this watch that was available in my country. And in sale price! Unbelievable quality and aesthetics. I just adore this time piece.
I just purchased the last one in australia, cant wait to get it.
Just took delivery of the same watch after watching your review! I have Breitlings and other more expensive watches but felt the need for the Seiko 5 in my collection. Awesome little watch . Amazing for the money !
I tend to wear my seiko 5 more than my pricier watches as well. So satisfying for the money!
How to purchase Seiko watch
I just bought one, took off the new bracelet and have a leather strap. It really does look like a Datejust without a bubble. I am saving it for a dress watch, so it is actually good that is an auto and not a quartz. No battery to die between uses and it only needs to be accurate for a few hours at a time. What a good looking watch.
I’m looking for one now in Ebay and now they are asking like $180, and probably close to retail and not a $100. watch. I did see one going for around $188. and it was modified with a bubble Safire crystal and the jagged Rolex bezel or the edge thing around the crystal and a jubilee band. Looked really like a Rolex and nice. Didn’t know they had those parts to mod or maybe this watch fits the after market Rolex Oyster parts.
@@jacknjill3000 I sold mine, hardly ever worn. My eyesight just was not up to it. The UA-cam videos are so enlarged you tend to overlook how tiny it is.
Uncle's notes
The SNXS line is a fantastic and inexpensive dress watch in the Seiko 5 line. There are so many different dial designs and color options and it's hard to find a better watch for the price. The bracelet, though, leaves a lot to be desired.
Never fear Seiko-holics, I've got your back! I decided to release 2 of my most popular bracelets for this series - the Executive and Lincoln.
Your favorite budget timepiece just got a whole lot better!

You've sold me on this watch on the leather NATO strap, phenomenal advice, thanks much. Great video sir.
My workplace has multiple bright ceiling lights. In such lighting the sunburst dial made it hard to distinguish the hands at a glance. Good otherwise.
Interesting observation. I haven't had that problem, but I can imagine.
Got mine from WATCHSHOP 3days ago,replaced the bracelet with a chocolate brown basketweave leather strap and lowered the height of the lugs by 0.9mm with a 7s26-0600 solid caseback. Have worn the watch since then and over the moon with it as
it keeps perfect time to the second and still on par with my android and computer internet time after 72 hours, AWESOME!!!!
Hi, where did you buy the caseback?
Actually that is a good looking watch. Seiko should upgrade the movement like many other 5s
Discontinued 7s26 movement so I believe these automatic 5's in a small 37mm are the last of the awesome budget friendly automatic watches. In the future Seiko will be pushing quartz and the Seiko5 sports line🤢
@@surfside75 I sadly believe you're correct. I have the SNXS73 version of this (silver dial), a very nice every day watch, and a couple of other affordable automatic 5''s with this movement. There's been lots of nice models in the automatic 5 series, but they probably will disappear as time goes on. I plan to get me a few more while they're available.
@@3rdstone1 get em while you can. I bought 16 so far✔️😂🍻
@@surfside75 Haha, that's awesome!
@@hyolinn5829 Compared to the blue and black/antracite grey I'd say it's a matter of personal taste. I was going for this SNXS79 model, but stumbled on a slightly used 73 on a domestic on line auction. I won the auction and got a great deal w/some warranty still left. It's a very nice silver sunburst dial, but these dials all look great. Search on YT, I think there might be some review on the SNXS73 as well.
That’s nice, it looks like the dressy version of the SNX809; same lug shape, bracelet and white date display too.
I think you're right, they appear to have the exact same case. That happens quite a lot in the Seiko 5 range. Thanks for sharing!
I'm a woman with a penchant for men's wathes and I'm really thinking between this and SNKL23. Thoughts?
I really do prefer the SNXS79K dial, but it's a matter of personal preference. The case of the SNKL23 is better though!
I always thought a dress watch should hide under the sleeve so in this case it will be hard to call it that way. On the other hand everyone has a different wrist, I e. g. have it more sunken so the watch does not stand out so much (I have Citizen Promaster and Seiko 5KX which case is similar and it sits quite right). Anyways I consider buying this watch but in white colorway SNXS73 😉
for watch under $100 SNKL23 still is the best model among all seiko 5 line up
Hey Alessandro! Just wanted to say that I love the channel and the content! I find myself watching your videos more than any other channel now. Keep pushing them out man your channel is going to take off! This is a great niche. #smallwristsmatter
Hey Addy, thank you so much, really appreciate it! Even if the channel is a lot of work, I enjoy recording these vids (editing not so much 😅) so I will keep pushing :) Small wrists is a niche gifted by mother nature so I figured: why not talk about it without complexes, or shame? Here, it's all about enjoying our passion without taking it too seriously. Glad you like it and thanks for watching!
The problem is in the caseback. If it's a solid caseback and not a crystal one, the fit will be awesome.
face the watch just look for the vintage one most of them were made in japan and had a metal caseback
You can reduce the thickness by about 0.9mm if you replace the glass caseback with a solid metal one from
the 7s26-0060(o/dia 32mm x 29.9mm screw dia).According to my research online you can also adapt most of the
solid casebacks from Seiko 7009 series with a 29.9mm case screw without interfering with the selfwinding rotor movement. I am expecting delivery of an extra 2 different, lower solid metal casebacks which will hopefully skim
off a little more. If you are not concerned about losing the glass caseback(the 7s26 is a workhorse and not exactly
decorative),or not having matching model/case numbers,I personally think,every effort made in reducing the overall
height of this watch will lower the lugs to the wrist and increase the aesthetic appeal of this timepiece, whether you change the strap or not.
Michael Yeo I am also interested in a solid case back. Have you already received yours and does it fit? Cheers!
@@johnnyl.4911 Presently I'm wearing it on a 7S26-0060 solid caseback, no problem. Still waiting for the other 2 experimental ones to arrive. The problem is whether they will interfere with the selfwinding rotor movement. Will keep you posted on my findings when I fit them.

Slap an aftermarket oyster style bracelet on it and it's *Chefs kiss* ✨
My father bought my grandfather and I one of these in the 60s. These are stylish watches that say smart money.
This is a beautiful watch and your video does it proud. I am an amateur watchmaker and this is an impressive design.
Great video. Just a tip on the bracelet. Remove the links to shift the clasp so it rests flat on your wrist. No need to bend the metal.
Well, not considering the day-date functionality I'd say this watch is closer to the Rolex Oyster Perpetual. There is a Seiko 5 that looks like a Datejust quite a bit, even its bezel. Unfortunately I can't remember the model.
I really do like the dial appearance, dial indices and the fact that it looks so much like a Rolex DateJust. However, I don't quite like the crown at 4 o'clock and the watch case. If only it had the crown at 3 o'clock, I definitely wouldn't think twice about buying it and with at least a 4R36 movement.
I bought a SNXS79J on the back of all the hype. There are reviews from about it from big UA-cam channels like Watchfinder & Co., Adrian Barket etc with a similar title to Jenn's. I can't believe the hype train around this watch. How can anyone compare it to a Rolex Oyster Perpetual? I absolutely hate it. I own 10 Seikos including SKX007J, SARB033 and a Sumo. The SKXS79J is the worst Seiko I've come across. The main issue is the tiny case. It looks like a toy. At best it looks like a women's watch. It might be fine for "men" with women's sized wrists. The bracelet must be one of the worst I've seen. The recessed crown. The list goes on...
It seems I'm the only person who doesn't like this watch. I just don't get it! I'm planning on returning it.
I do not recommend SNXS79K. Save $300 more and buy the SARB035, which is a real affordable luxury timepiece. The SARB035 has a better bracelet, better finish, sapphire crystal, 100 meters water-resistant. Yes, it cost $425.00 (Amazon/Sep2020) which is 3.2 times the cost of the SNXS79K and is worth it. The SARB035 will last you years if not decades, while the SNXS79K is going to be trash in a few years maybe months.
Very nice man. For those money, that dial is like little miracle :) My snx do +2s/d and with positioning over night im still around +3/-3 ( but mostly about +/- 1) in 2 weeks - from box.
EDIT: I forgot, lume is high quality and in my case at same level as lume at my skx diver, it means i can read time whole night.
Yeah, it appears that I forgot about the lume too 😅 and yes, it's crazy bright, very impressive for the price. This thing * is * a miracle. I wonder if Seiko is cooking something with the 5 line, more and more models are being discontinued... I'll keep an eye on this. In the meantime, this SNaXS kicks a$$!
This is one of my first watches so I don't have any other experience with lume to compare to, but on my snxs the lume starts out very bright and then dims pretty fast to the point where I can only see it in pitch black within 10-20 minutes. It does last all night, but is extremely dim, is this how it's supposed to be?
@@tskwared667 its very hard to compare or claim like this, coz everyone has different eye "abilities", somebody has glasses or some problems. Even same type of watch can be different in many ways depends at age, air humidity in area where are watches mostly situated, depends even at mood of worker who assembled it or who aplied lume layers.
I had several watches (automatic) in price range 60-2000 dolls and skx has very good lume and is in my TOP 5 lumed watches. My snx has realy good lume, as i said in my opinion same LUMIBRITE compound like in skx where it performs very very good.
Lume at watches are not supossed to extremly shine whole night, its normal its dimming thru time, all compounds do same, important is that "residual light performance".
Advice - to charge lume use UV flash light at for example 12oclock at night, you should be able to read time in 5oclock morning. Dont forget - night vision or night mode for human eyes needs to be switched on cca 10mins in dark. So let your eyes adapt to dark and you should be able to read the time.
Sorry ma englando im not native speaker , im naive speaker :)))
Very great review thank you.
Ok I'm gonna be this guy: Saying this Seiko 5 is an alternative to a Rolex Datejust is like saying the Fiat 124 Abarth is an alternative to the Ferrari Enzo. Both are great products but not exactly comparable.
Pure class nonetheless. Thanks
I bought one for my dad and one for myself some time ago. My dad never takes it off. It’s light, it’s versatile, and it’s all class. Beautiful watch.
Amazing dial, best looking Seiko
Williams Scott Jackson Barbara Martinez Kevin
I love a Rhodium Datejust, this watch sway my attention away for some reasons. I’m getting ☝️
They look really similar! I was lurking at the OP 36 steel dial this afternoon... beautiful.
Thank you for this nice review! Just bought mine this March 2022. It's so beautiful & nice in actual, especially the sunburst dial! Definitely worth the buy! It's also ideal for those who are planning to buy their first ever Seiko watch. Highly recommended 💯
The gap under the case at the lugs is the deal breaker for me.
Who are the fools who will, nevertheless, go out and buy a rubbish Danial Wellington or MVMT watch, rather than this beauty!!?
With this watch you save about 10 000 $. You got yourself baby GS and RDJ in one ;)
TRUE !i have to the blue version of this ! The 77K1 ! Is such a beauty! :X:XX:X
Does anyone know if you can swap the bezel with a fluted one ?
I love this watch, but the only thing I'm not sure about is the high fit on the wrist. Does it bother you in the day or is it not that big of a deal
I want to buy this because of its pretty dial & lume. But the lug is just too high, big gap under it. Very ugly. Bad seiko
I am confused between, snxs79k and snkl23, can you please suggest one
This watch is great, but it's a bit too small and it's bracelet is VERY cheap
I like the Seiko 5 sub brand, at least before they shifted from the 37 mm form factor to the current 40 mm form factor but remember they leave out the manual wind and seconds hacking features with the Seiko 5. Ironically the unbranded versions of the mechanisms sold to other manufacturers, watchmakers and hobbyists differ by having those features added back in so a decent clone might actually have those missing features.
Note that the day (day of week) setting on a Seiko 5 is not adjusted by pulling the crown out but by pushing it in like a push button which can lead to accidental adjustment when you push the crown in after adjusting the time or date (day of month).
Also, as with all mechanical watches, if it is running fast, have it demagnetized (degaussed) not adjusted. Most jewelers will degauss it for free and a degausser only costs $15. After being demagnetized, it will intentionally run slow but will speed up over time as magnetization is picked up and adjusting the time forward is less likely to wear out the gears then adjusting the time backwards.
I really miss the stainless steel case backs. The modern glass backs just feels gimmicky to me. Besides, a lot of information are stamped on the case backs both inside and out.
I'm a bit color blind..what color is that dial? Blackish grey or blueish?
The dial seems to be black, but when the lights passes through it we can notice a greyish effect due to the sunburst style
It's a mid grey dial that looks like dark grey inside, crazy bright and light in sunlight, and definitely no blue hue
great watch just don't like the UFO case shape
why do you need handwinding when this starts super quick just by shaking?

The SNXS line is a fantastic and inexpensive dress watch in the Seiko 5 line. There are so many different dial designs and color options and it's hard to find a better watch for the price. The bracelet, though, leaves a lot to be desired.

Sir Seiko 5 automatic 21 jewels SNXS73j for sale
take the K off and give me a Sapphire glass, i'd buy it today.
Hey again brother do you have a watch similar to this that you would recommend but one that sits a bit lower and fits it a bit better? I’m still planning on getting this one as well I just wish it would sit a bit more down
Maybe try a Casio Edifice. Really slim
Great model but this height thing was a deal breaker for me. It's not so much about looks but it's very annoying to wear such cases with sleeves.
I agree! They messed up with the case on this one...
Lug to lug 19mm what mm strap would I need if I wanted to change the bracelet to a leather strap?
20 mm will be just fine, unless it's really thick. Just squeeze in there (I already tried that multiple times and it works no problem).
Salve, dove posso acquistare un bel bracciale jubilee per questo orologio?
I really like the DJ and I really like this one because both are great watches for what they are. Thank you for the really good review!
Brilliant colour, comfy to wear, I have the very same one even has good lume cheers Shane uk 🇬🇧
That would be perfect with an aftermarket polished metal bracelet
If you find a good one please let me know, I've tried but I've not found anything well refined, thank you
Great review!
It is such a nice watch.
Which is the measure of your wrist?Thanks.
I bought one of these recently as my first Seiko, and it is genuinely a stunning watch. I went with the silver dial, but am now looking to also buy the blue as I like it so much. For the price, it is arguably unbeatable when you think what it offers.
I can't decide if I should go for black or silver dial.
nice watch but looks strange sitting high on wrist
Doesn't look like datejust closer to OP.
Really very nice, but the side view is really ugly
There’s another Seiko Rolex lookalike (SNX361) with a red second hand and black day and date. Also this model comes also in a gray face and has the same models number.
Oh and the SNX361 has a flatter or smaller back case so it lays flat which also looks like the Rolex Oyster.
too bad it's too thick and inaccurate.
Good review, positive and enthustiastic style. No doubt that you love what you do. Beautiful watch; that dial is amazing. The bracelet looks like a Seiko SQ bracelet from the 80's or 90's - I remember buying one in '94 from new which had, if I remember correct, exactly the same bracelet and clasp. Maybe they wanted to give it a neo-vintage trait? Or a was it surplus of bracelets from then ;) Anyway your leather straps color looks nice with that dial and the polished case.
So now we have a Submariner alternative in the Orient and a Daydate alternative in the SNX - to complete the trilogy we need a budget, quality mechanical chronograph. If it must be automatic, there are 2 options, the Valjoux 7750. The cheapest watch with this movement will probably be at least $750. Then there are the Chinese copies. Or should we go for a manual winder? One with the russian Poljot 3133, or a Chinese alternative. For example, the Alpha SG2903, which should be around $150 and looks like a lot of watch for the money.
Thank you so much for your message and support! I will explore some chronographs in the future but currently I'm more leaning towards G-Shocks which I find a lot of fun, too. Funny for a small-wristed guy, I know ;) I gifted an Alpha to my brother and the winding stem gave way just after a few months - weird since it is supposed to be a Miyota movement in there but now I'm not quite sure. A Poljot might do the trick because there are a lot of them, and fun too. Did I say that I want my collection to be fun? Thanks again and see you real soon! Cheers
I bought one today after watching your review of the SNXS79.
where did you find one?? i am searching for weeks, its sold out everywhere..
THANK YOU! I am thinking of a Seiko or a Orient Kamasu.
just sits high. not a real problem.
Great video! I have a question though, what is the difference between the SNXS79K and the SNXS79J1? Asking because the 79K is hard to find at the moment, and the 79J1 looks almost identical. Would you happen to know?
The ‘J’ version was made in Japan, while the K versions were manufactured in Malaysia.
@@pshiva1215 I've since learned the difference after getting the K, but thanks for your reply!
@@pshiva1215 so they are the same watch but just made in different countries?
@@lalalala-ce3fn Yes, maybe quality is better in the japanese versions but i can't find it.
@@DonCacomixtle the watches are identical, as they are made with the same machines.
Great little watch have three of them of them.
More like a Rolex OP alternative.... I REALLY wish Seiko would offer a no day/date option. I would go as far as getting an aftermarket no day/date dial for this. However, the cost of a $60-$80 dial from a Seiko mod shop and installation fee, is almost the cost of a perfectly functioning great looking watch.
What's the difference between SNXS73K and SNXS79K (besides the color of course :-))? Because I just find the SNXS73K in my country (Brazil). And it doesn't worth it for me to buy from the US for example because I'll have to pay very expensive importing taxes. Do I'm thinking about buying the SNXS73K in that case....
you convinced me, best review ever i am subscribed
I have the SNXS77, blue dial. Very nice watch. Yes, the stock bracelet is cheapo, but I like the way it looks. The 19mm lug width does make it difficult to get leather straps, though. Can’t beat the price!
Couldn't agree more. A 20 mm strap will work though, you just have to squeeze it in! after just a few days, it will be all good.
It's an amazing watch for the price, the lume absolutely destroys top end luxury watches even though this is only £60. I wish they made a 40mm version it would be perfect!!
Sorry, I can't read your message, the lume on this watch made me blind! 😂 I love the smaller size though, but the case on the SNK393 (unboxing coming!) is nicer. Still a cracking piece for the price, this dial is 😍
I have the gold face, beautiful
Hi @times square, the Seiko Quartz 7546 8360 from the 1970,s is the first, I believe, of this big lumed indexes dress watches. I have a 1978 one that looks so modern as this SNXS79k
Thanks got it for $65. 😁
OK, so I've now fitted a Seiko 7009-5860 solid metal caseback onto this watch and the thickness is now down to 10.3mm, with no interference to the selfwinding rotor whatsoever and the result is awesome.
You can get these used casebacks(1or 2) from : www.speedtimerkollection.com (based in Holland)for under 5 euros plus reasonable shipping costs.Just make sure the screw size is 29.9mm dia.Check them out.
They are also on Ebay.
Does the movement can be chage to nh36
Seiko 5 snxs79 and snxs77 just have the color difference, am I right???
in 2022, which watch will you recommend to buy among snxs79k and snkl23
I wanted one for a long time but I couldnt get one. So I bought a Seiko SNE039P1 instead. But then I saw one used and within 2 minutes I bought it for 90€ and I have to say Iam happy :D Now I have 2 beatiful Seikos and I have to decide each day which one I will wear :D
I like Seiko products but they are really starting to sell nonsensical movements for the price. I mean seriously this has a 7S26 ??? It's not even a 4R which is itself not exactly the best ? That's not ok
Great watch, but the bracelet..... why didn't they polish the endlinks to match the case?! Seiko delivers 2 seperate items here.
Sir please can you send me one in india
Hi!! QUESTION: why the watch does not have any reference of where it is made? I have a Seiko 5 with the same problem. Can someone tell where these versions come from?
Hello.
I purchased the watch last week. In blue sphere. I changed the metal strap for a leather one like you.
I don't know if it's my case, but the dial on the side, at 6 o'clock on the dial. It presents some marks or scratches caused by the fastening of the original metal strap. Specifically for the two metal extensions at twelve and six, which makes the strap fit perfectly to the spherical shape of the dial.
Can someone confirm that this is so, that the original strap scratches the side itself. Observing these scratches if we opt for a leather strap.
Thank you very much
I have about 60 watches of all shapes and prices. This one is my favorite of all of them. I have the grey, blue and white/silver dials. All gorgeous watches, but the grey dial is the most beautiful of all of them.
Is this watch discontinued?
Somehow I am finding the "what an awful bracelet" complaint unrelatable. Maybe I should pull out the few obviously higher quality bracelets from the boxes where I stashed them and see if i can try and be a bracelet guy for a change. For now though, I like the way these cheap, rattly stock bracelets feel unintrusive and feathery.
Great video I looking something like this for smart casual weekend look. The height of the wrist bothers me I came across the SNK361 which seems to wear more flat. Any opinions between the two ?
Its a good lookin' UFO shaped watch from Seiko but it becomes terrible when you were it. I have both Silver and Blue dial ones.
Bought it and returned immediately. It is so small and the band is very chip. However, looks good on video.
Love this watch got it last week
looks like a ufo from the side
The way the watch sits on the wrist disqualifies it from buying. Nice video by the way. Thanks 👍
Hi Alex,
Your new sub here. I really want to buy this watch, but the only thing stop me from buying this watch is its only 30 m water resistant. Do you have any suggestion for another alternative with the same size and aesthetic with 10 bar feature?
