    Very nice. I recently got a quartz Seiko tank off Ebay but after I ordered it I discovered it was a frankenwatch. Doesn't bother me too much though, still enjoying it.

      I feel like there are so many of those cobbled-together tanks on eBay for whatever reason. Must be popular. Glad you're enjoying your piece!

    I almost picked up this tiny Seiko a few months back. Honestly I love the coverage of tiny watches as a tiny wristed person myself.
    Keep up the good work. Definitely subbed!

      Groovy, so glad you've enjoyed the vids and thanks for the sub. Should have another review up soon. Have a swell day!

    Thanks for sharing, it’s good to know there’s others out there enjoying the small vintage Seiko tank offerings. I just purchased a Seiko 2c20-5019 with a lug to lug of 12mm, total case width of 15mm. But I love it!

    Just wanted to let you know, bought the Seiko SSEH001 because of this video!

      Dope. Classy pick, for sure. Hope you enjoy it! Thanks for watching. :)

      Ha, I know that game too well. Influenced quite often myself. Thankfully, I bet you can find a similar Seiko tank for very little cheddar. Not a super desirable piece for a lot of folks, I think, which is good for us. :)

    How did you change the bands?

    • @smolwatch
      @smolwatch  Рік тому +1

      I actually didn't change the band on this particular piece (?). But typically, to change bands, I use a little spring bar removal tool (you can get pretty cheap watch tool kits at a lot of places). Thankfully, a lot of newer bands have quick release spring bars, which I love. So convenient. Thanks for watching!

    I thought it was going to be so much smaller than it turned out to be. It’s just a little bit smaller than many watches in the 1950s.

    • @smolwatch
      @smolwatch  Рік тому

      Most definitely. It's not too far off. Thanks for watching!

    Look into casio LTP v007 (or MTP for the larger one) if you like Casio and tanks

      Thanks for the rec (and for watching)! I'll keep an eye out.

    If you watch as many Film Noir and other vintage movies as I do, you will notice how small mens watches were back then. Large watches were not in fashion until fairly recently.

    • @smolwatch
      @smolwatch  Рік тому

      Oh, most def. Love to see those vintage pieces in classic films. Thankfully, I feel like the industry is starting to trend smaller, very slowly. Thanks for watching!

    I had one of these many years ago. Unfortunately, it was stolen from me in a burglary. It was my substitute for the Cartier which I couldn't afford.

    • @smolwatch
      @smolwatch  2 роки тому

      Argh, sorry that happened! I'm sure that was a rough experience. If you ever want to get another, these little neo-vintage pieces are definitely still on the affordable end due to the size, primarily, I'd wager. You have a swell day out there and thanks for watching!

    I think that is the ladies version of that watch

    • @smolwatch
      @smolwatch  2 роки тому

      Most likely was meant to be, but I'm not averse to wearing a "ladies" piece. As long as it's groovy. Thanks for watching.

    you spoke a whole lot about how tiny it is and how it fits on your wrist without mentioning your wrist size, let us know

    • @smolwatch
      @smolwatch  2 роки тому +2

      Good point! I've mentioned it in a few vids, but you're so right. Definitely should've made a point to comment on that here. My wrist is 6.25in. (~15.9cm). Thanks for watching!

  • @jonathanlloyd2306
    @jonathanlloyd2306 5 місяців тому

    I think the issue is the width of the strap, making it look like a woman's watch. Nobody cares though, and women wear big men's watches all the time!

    • @smolwatch
      @smolwatch  5 місяців тому

      I'm with ya, dawg. Ultimately doesn't matter a lot, and peeps should wear whatever they like. I think you're right re: the strap being a contributing factor, for sure, with how the watch presents. It is very skinny. Thanks for watching!
