Seiko 5kx

Kid of a love/hate with this one. Now that they released the 38mm im upset i didnt wait. Or just get the OG SKX. Still love the way it looks. Just s bit big for my liking.

I feel same way that the case is a bit big. Mostly it’s just too thick. I have an SKX013, but I think that’s a bit too small. I think it’s more like 37mm and wears small for a diver. I thought the new smaller 5kx versions are basically same case size, but not sure.

Really, I think Seiko should make a 39-40mm diver. There’s a solar one that kind of fits bill, but they seem to never quite hit that sweet spot that sonething like a Black Bay 58 hits.

I really just wana see the new one in person. Im a fan of smaller watches. Are you talking about the SNE573? I love that one. Its a 38 i think. Solar 200m prospex diver. I want it but I'll probably never buy it at almost $400. Maybe if it was like $200-250

Yeah, SNE573 or there’s a number of other models with different colors. It does seem a rather ideal size, I would like to try one on too. If you look around you might be able to get one in one of the colors for like $300 I think I’ve seen.

I got mine from strapcode. Pretty sure it was under $100 if I remember correctly
