I had a look at your King Samurai video. Nice short presentation. There is a hiss in the audio background though. Try lowering the microphone gain a little. Background music at low level also helps. Keep up the good work! 👍

Yes, Seiko was still an "old" video... and yes, my videos are a bit shorter that the detailed review in my blog is.... :-) In this video I have a new set and a Rhode micro. Is it better?

Best review of this watch, really... I own this one and I concur with your conclusions. The bezel is slippery but very solid feeling. My chapter ring is slightly misaligned and when unscrewed, the crown hits the winding thread as well, very annoying... But I have to admit it's a very enjoyable, fun watch that's surprisingly comfortable to wear.

It aligns " fairly well" How much longer will Seiko's fan base put up with this ? I think the "long strap " is the rubber version of the diver's extension for a dive suit.

I've seen far worse alignment on other models. With that said, it is really silly that Seiko isn't making a better effort to fix such a basic fault.

I have this watch and put it on a mesh bracelet. Looks amazing. My bezel aligns perfectly as does the chapter ring. Mine also winds beautifully and does not interact with the crown guard. I think you need to make sure you have unscrewed the crown properly, as per your video. Overall, a lovely watch and nice review.

The crown is completely released. It's free without resistance when turning the opposite direction, but catches the threads when turned the right way even with a minimum of pressure.

I bought mine from a friend yesterday, also for about 400 dollars. The original owner apparently bought it brand new in July for about 650. I personally don't know anything about watches, and I have spent the better part of today wondering if I even like it tbh. Sure it looks good, but I don't know if I like the blue all that much. I'm sure my friend would buy it back if I told him I didn't want it, but I am giving it a try. Also here on the internet to see what others think of it. I love that it's pretty big.

@@thetinkeringseal I'm waiting for the SRPE37 white dial to arrive any moment now. I haven't had first hand experience with either watch and I'm trying to make a judgement call off videos. The Turtle really does seem to have a lot of loyal followers and there's usually a reason for that. My first choice is the Samurai but since I will already have one I'm trying to decide if I should diversify a little. I can't find the Turtle for a good price so that might decide for me.
