ALL 3 of SEIKOS NEW GMT's: ua-cam.com/video/IL7JCbs07hA/v-deo.html -FallingTitan
Thanks for the excellent comparison. I prefer the Samurai. I suspect if Seiko made a Samurai SLA with an 8L35 movement, it would sell out.
The samurai is just an impressive watch. You are 100% right about the bracelet. I bought a dark manta samurai and I ordered a nice bracelet that is made for it. It does look much better on the original strap.
How did you get the separate strap installed? you went to a store?
1:39 A nice close up of Seiko's patented off center lume application and shotty QA..
At least the Bezel is not misaligned.
Turtle for me. It's always been Turtle, and this one is no exception. So comfortable, and such a unique look.
I like the samurai the best, don't drawn to the other two. But I still prefer my three Manta Rays, they are just perfect.
Nothing will beat them for me.
The Samurai looks incredible
My Samurai finally arrived at the local Seiko dealership 😊 I finally have all three Samurai watches that I want
Which one you wear the most?
Sumo in Blue Color is just gorgeous!! Thankyou for making a beautiful video man!
My pleasure!
I just bought the samurai but felt like i should've got the sumo instead. But for my daily, including work, the lower price point of the samurai made more sense. Might pick up a sumo in a couple of years when they have another iteration. Got the started with the seiko 5 sports last year, samurai this year, sumo in a couple of years then ultimately the spring drive diver. I think that'll complete my Seiko collection.
Purchased the Samurai. Can’t wait to get it! Next the mm200 reduced GMT green
Samurai and Turtle for me as well!
The Samurai is like the SLA055, great watch. With black bezel I would buy it. I'm still a big fan of the manta rays. 🤩
I got one on the way. I went for the Turtle after seeing the samurai in a store. I feel like the turtle is more comfortable and I wasn’t a fan of the silicone strap which is usually a dust magnet. I think I’ll just get a FKM for my turtle
Silicone strap attracts dirt?
@@ngythe1kingsteel bracelets have a lot of dirt and a bad smell if not serviced😂
Yep, silicone is a dust-magnet for me.
the samurai just looks so sleek compared to the other two
Just ordered the Turtle version new on eBay for $355+ tax.
Seiko sign the crown please!
I’d rather they upgrade the bracelet
I actually don't get why people want a pretty ugly S on the crown? If it was a cool logo, like some brands, it can look cool to have a signed crown, but id rather a plain crown than an ugly S. Maybe on a vintage/classic looking dress model, the S can work, but for a tool watch, the S just doesn't work.
Signed crown, sure, but I think it's also time for milled clasps on these 4R divers - I'd take either.
Samurai. Perfection
Looks amazing. I just wish they would have not have cluttered everything with so much text. I feel it is just getting more and more with each new version...
I tell you what, these cheap Seiko divers sure would be a lot more tempting if they all weren’t huge in size! Also, that’s the best looking Sumo that they’ve ever created
maybe they will shrink in the future! hopefully!
While the sumo and samurai are indeed big watches, you may want to try a turtle on, the very short lugs make it wear much better than the dimensions suggest !
they're big but Seiko nailed the case shape almost always
I wear Samurais with 6.5 inch wrist. When it comes to wearing a samurai, I become a big boy.
The lug to lug is not that long, so luckily it works.
Would be nice to see King Turtle spec in a case under 42mm. And throw in a milled clasp while they're at it.
Turtle First After the Samurai and third The Sumo ❤
Love the PADI new strap on the Sammy...but I like the Turtle as well...on a strap of course....
I love the Samurai. I still have my Save the Ocean “Dark Manta”. I absolutely still love it, but nice to see what new stuff is on the market.
turtle all the way
The samourai has my attention. But the three are great value !
A $1625 CAD watch and no signed crown :/. I love the dials and the blue dials, minute hands and bezel but geez Seiko, if Hamilton, Tissot, Mido, Christopher Ward can sign their crowns at these price points so can you.
Diashild and 6R35 at the sumo? Very good features. It's a shame that Sumo is too big for my wrist. 🙈
The Blue Hole SPB083 beats all other watches for me. But these guys are not far away, very great watches.
Agree best versions of all three watches to date.
If only seiko could do a decent clasp on their sub 1k watches.
Likely get the Turtle and just get two blue tropics for it - one navy one light blue
samurai PADI better than the dark manta? hmmm
@@Othusdragonreviews I ended up buying the King Samuari deep blue. Both are very nice, but to me the colour combo and dial on the deep blue win. I almost bought the manta 2-3 times but always hesitated. Saw the deep blue in person once, bought it a day later.
Omega recently released some homages to these.
>We've got Omega Summer Blue at home
Hopefully you can compare these new seiko padi's with the seiko save ocean series great white shark. Both series are great.
Just ordered the Samurai ❤
Fuuuuhhhhhh.... Want that Sumo, but that pricetag.
I might finally pull the trigger on a turtle. Haha
Fantastic! I will be ordering the Turtle.
Good choice!
That Sumo is a great looking watch.
Samurai. 👍🏻
I am leaning towards the Turtle
The Samurai hand-down. Partly cause I own it.
It's a KING Samurai (sapphire glass, magnifying glass) 😉
Nice! most interesting to me was the 6105 lookalike at 0:52. Mod? Any video on it? Thanks!
Slim Willard Mod. No video sorry.
Got the samurai and it's pretty
Samari for me
Seiko never disappoints
Apart from their bracelets, their quality control, their endless misalignments, their never signed crowns, their hardlex for days, their inflated prices....but other than that they never disappoint :)
No, it ALWAYS disappoints!!
@@anima201 You forgot their inaccuracy.
Is th3 strap swappable?
You can always count on FallingTitan to show us all the new Seiko’s 😄
I'd take the turtle because it's a lot more comfortable to wear all day than the samurai.
The Turtle pleasee
When are they availaable??? I'm headed to Cancun in September and would love to take the Samurai along
It's available right now at kavar Jewelers
Samurai All Day for the price
I just love your reviews!
I thought they were the new save the ocean too.
SAMURAI
Do you like the way the turtle wears odour size wrist? I've never tried one🤔
Does is make sense to spend 600bucks for a 4R35 ? That’s the point
For me samurai
I LOVE SAMURAIN IN ❤38
The Sumo looks great. What's the reference number for the grey dial Turtle at the 50 seconds mark? Looks like a dial and hands from a SJE093 in a SPB317 case. The no lume seconds hands throws me off though.
It is a custom mod I made. Good eye. spb317 everything except the movement dial and hands. Nh35 and aftermarket dial and hands.
@@EscapementWatch Very Nice!
I know. I only wore it once and my coworker saw it and had to have it. So I sold it to him like 1min after he saw it. lol
Love these ❤
How easy is it, to get the cyclops off the Turtle? Can I do it myself, should I ask a watch person, or is it easier to just exchange the sapphire crystal completely and get a clean one?
Seiko needs to do something about their divers extensions, the old one they still uses are horrible. Even AliExpress watches have way better on the fly adjustment clasps. Step it up Seiko!
The on the fly adjustment doesn't comply with ISO6425. You need a separate system which extends to comply as a diver extension. Any watch you pickup which adheres to diving standards is going to have a weird extension system. The separate diver extension along with on the fly adjustment on my Pelagos 39 makes the clasp almost 50mm long and 6mm thick. Not much different in terms of comfort to my Seiko 62mas clasp which at least is thinner. Diver extensions are useless for most people but can't get rid of it either on dive watches compliant to diving standards.
Deciding between the Samurai and Sumo. Don't have these both models in my Seiko diver collection yet so its a tought choice. After this video, I'm leaning more towards the Samurai. I'll wait for the newer dial vatiants with the Sumo later.
Never had the chance to try them. Which one wears better on a small wrist ?
turtle on a strap. shortest lug to lug of the bunch.
@@EscapementWatch thanks 😊 !
Why is NOBODY mentioning that watch at 0:49?!!!! SJE093 in a SPB317 case? Please @EscapementWatch tell meeeee!
It is a mod and my co-worker loved it and bought off me. it is an OEM spb317 case with AM 62mas dial.
@@EscapementWatch Thank you so much for replying. I guess I need to hunt down that 62mas dial as well then..
When are they releasing this beauties?
Right now available at Kavar jewelers
pleasee seiko make smaller diameter samurai and turtle . pleeeeaaasssseeeeee !!!!!!
I dream of when Seiko will remove all 6 series movements and replace them with 8 series. Unfortunately, it will remain a dream.
i'll be happy with just the 6L replacing the 6R
@@EscapementWatch Yeah, it's a bit better.
a lot!
If it's not too much to ask, could you compare the case finishing on these models vs tudor & omega if you get your hands on one?
I was set on the LHD but I might switch over to SRPK01 or SRPJ93
6R movement still having issues?
The 6R is not worth the premium price. I'd rather have the 4R. Shame as I love the Sumo case style.
Have to agree... I've had problems with multiple 6R's to the point they had to go to Seiko Service
I’d have to take the other side - I’ve never had any issues with my 4R’s, but I haven’t had issues with the 6R either. That 70hr PR is pretty nice 😊. But I do hear of a good amount of issues with the 6R, so it’s definitely something to consider
That chocolate bar cyclops on the turtle needs to go.....other than that I like it best.
Also, I have many Seiko's and the bracelets are total crap....I'm not dogging the clasp (I actually like the clasp), but the pins holding the bracelet together eventually fall out.....CRAP!
the pin and collar system is difficult to install but it's permanent if installed correctly and will fall out if installed incorrectly. I've had it fallout on me when I thought I did it correct but there's a little bit of a learning curve with experience.
@@EscapementWatch Then it's often installed incorrectly from the factory.....
Hi Falling, are you getting one?
No too big for my tastes. And I just bought an expensive Seiko
@@EscapementWatch hey Falling, which Seiko Video was the watch you got? I missed it. Could you send me the link please. Thank you Falling
coming out in Aug. The watch hasn't released yet!!!!
@@EscapementWatch this is Exciting. I will wait and watch out for August Video. Thank you Falling for the replies. You are so cool 😎
Where is the solar??😢
Wow Seiko finally made to the beginning of the 21st century, they discovered the ceramic insert ! Now, hopefully they will get, at some point to the nearly 1st quarter of the 21st century and discover the quality of micro brands bracelets which are milled and the signed crowns. Altho I don't like turtles in general (the model is either love it or hate it) this one with the ceramic insert is kinda nice, ruins it completely that cheap clasp. Not sure why pay such $ for these, plenty of micro brands to choose from that offer either same or better product for way less $.
Seiko hits different then a microbrand. There is a pride with this storied brand and they have millions of fans.
@@EscapementWatch you do have to admit, even to your self if not in public that I have a solid point. Am not a Seiko hater, own several Seiko, including GS, KS, from mm300 to spb xxx. QC isn't their thing either, but hey, you have your views and I have mine. Speaking of pride, would be nice to put theirs in good use.
I do like the ceramic, but I'd much rather a sapphire insert like LCBI offers. Modded by old Blue Whale Turtle with that, and it was a stunner.
What movements do they have??
6R35 is a crap. Weak QC, poor adjustment out of factory, and with a high element of lucky draw. Seiko will continue to use this mediocre 6R35 for years to come. Good luck to whoever spending a grand on it.
💯
Agreed.....
We have to repeat this over and over until Seiko comes up with some updated movement for the super lame 6R.
Hello, sir.
Hello IXDAO. Yes I'm speaking to you right now from reddit.
😍
🐢🐢🐢🐢🐢🐢🐢🐢🐢🐢🐢🐢
The second hands of the sumo is a turn off. Modern seiko watches that are higher in quality have long second and minute hands. After owning one of each, I tend to only buy models with long second hands. It is truly sign of quality from Seiko unfortunately. In as much as I am a sucker of this colorway. This is a pass for me.
Nice review! They all look wonderful!
they are just going to keep remaking the same watches over and over and over again
Why is nobody else talking about this
Maybe not a big enough release for the big channels. hahah scraps for the little guy
Ive handled all of them. a couple of weeks ago.the samurai is the better looking and im a turtle fan.
Great information.
Eh... it's all subjective. I've owned multiple Turtles, a Willard and a Samurai. Of those, the Samurai is the one that's no longer in the collection
@Angry_Gnome I sell more turtles than samurais. So far in this line up the samurai is the best looking and people like it more.
