Thoughts on the Seiko King Turtle?

Hello everyone! I hope everyone’s day is going well! I have a found a Seiko king turtle at a good price and i’m wondering what some of your thoughts are on the watch! I’d like to hear some feedback just to know for sure :). The model i’m specifically looking at is the SRPE05

I really like the Seiko turtle case. It’s comfortable and wears much smaller than the dimensions would suggest.

Thank you! I can see how that pose a bit of a problem if the movement is hit or miss.

Value is lost on me.  I love seiko  but....

Even my Steeldive Willard offers better specs than the 5's at a better price.

I think the Turtle fits really well given it’s a decent size watch though I’ve got a q big wrist. I’ve never noticed mine as having poor accuracy but I don’t daily them. Personally I don’t like the cyclops and went for other options without. There are some great limited editions like the Dawn Grey though there are silly prices asked for these on eBay. To be fair the KT has some good upgrades so if you like it go for it??

Phenomenal value for the price point, it's basically the base turtle with all the mods you'd ever want to do to it.

The grenade dial is fantastic, I just bought one of these to ask my best friend to be my best man and it's an absolute stunner. Accuracy wise I've had good luck with the 4R36 I have in my SRPF77 and my SRPD91 at 2.8 and 4.3 respectively, not bad for daily beaters.
