Is this too "affordable" to be here?
Just bought this Seiko 5. Original bracelet was far from good quality so I replaced it with a leather strap.

Nope, a good watch is a good watch, irrespective of brand and price.

Nice watch. No watch is "too affordable" for TRF.

That looks great.
The seiko 5 lineup is an incredible value. There is a lot of seiko appreciation here. It's well deserved.

Thanks guys. I like it alot. The dial is a beauty. The power reserve is not great but then again can't really complain with the price I got it for.

I think many folks here have a Seiko or three. I have a SKX009 on Nato which I love. It sure is incredible value.
Simple rule is ..if you love it , buy it. |

Seiko makes some fine watches!
Personally I'm not a fan of leather straps, but that's just me. But the look is mighty fine!
