There is no question that when it has came down to watches, Seiko has been the leader at making definitive watches for all ages young and old, male and female. Yet, many people have often overlooked the Seiko 5 automatic watch line, while everyone has savored their traditional quartz, Cotura chronographs, Seiko Solar, and their Kinetic rechargeable quartz battery watches. But there are still automatic watches that handle well. This Seiko 5 SNK789 watch handles mostly well, with a simple and elegant design that is simple and contemporary. Yet, there are a few flaws on the watch. The first is that is has a lower water resistance level than advertised. It only has 30 Meters (100 Feet) of water resistance, not 100 Meters of water protection (330 Feet as advertised on Amazon.) The second one is that it can be very rough to pull out the crown to reset the time than most other Seiko watches. Still, you do get mostly well a nicely showcased and simple silvertoned watch for its price. I just wish there was a bit more with this model from Seiko, but you do get a nice watch for what its worth.
