Seiko 5 - Wanted to love this piece.

Got this for a steal on jomashop. I really wanted to love it but im afraid it’s gonna have to go back. Bracelet feels to cheap and not in love with the watch. I know i’m gonna get some hate from this decision but just not feeling it.
 

What’s everyone’s thoughts?

I hate the Seiko 5 I bought a few years back... it happens. 

It's good to let people know the shortcomings of watches, so they can make informed decisions. Particularly when it's a brand that people fanboy over like Seiko.

If you feel that way then send it back. It wasn't meant for you.

Cheers!

I'd be more concerned about the illegible day wheel!

Have you tried putting it on a leather strap? I feel like the bracelets these came on were designed to go straight in the bin. It really is quite a good looking watch imo, and I think putting it on a nice leather strap would give it a better chance to shine.

But if it isn't the vibe, it isn't the vibe!

It's not a big deal if you don't like watches that other people think are great.
