Seiko announced four integrated* style bracelet quartz models similar to the Type II quartz models from the 70s. These would be a nice alternative to Tissot PRX quartz models with a more mid-size dimension. The SUR553 has a white dial, the SUR555 has a blue dial, the SUR557 has a grey dial, and the two-tone SUR558 has a white dial.

Case-38.5mm

Lug to lug- 44.5mm (No non-articulating endlinks to increase the overall L2L)

Thickness- 8.5mm

Lug width-20mm

WR-100m

Sapphire crystal

Price-$350 for the single tone and $365 for the dual tone variant.

*Integrated style but you still get a traditional lug width to use your own straps which makes these models a little more versatile.

Also, if anyone is a fan of big date style watches, just found these models. Looks quite good for casual wear. These were released in late 2022.

39.5mm case, 47mm lug to lug and 9.8 thick. Sapphire crystal, 100m WR and 20mm lug width. $260 for the models on the strap and $325 for the bracelet variant. The SUR543 is currently on sale for $158 on Jomashop.
