Men's SNK615 Automatic Stainless Steel Watch

I spent a lot of time looking for the "perfect" watch dial and this Seiko is it. The aesthetics of this watch are amazing. It has a handsome blue dial with easy-to-read markings. The yellow second hand and minute numbers provide a good contrast, and the day/date window is large enough to see. (I like having the weekend days in blue/red). Another plus is the clear back which allows you to inspect the movement. Since this is an automatic watch don't expect the same level of accuracy as you would get from a vanilla quartz; however, that being said I still find that it keeps decent time. The stainless steel watch band is of good quality and the watch has a nice, solid feel. I have a smart watch but I still like to wear this one sometimes "just because."PROS: Very good looking watch with simple, classic features and a see-through "exhibition case" back. The "Hardlex" crystal is durable (I've had this for years and no scratches with occasional wear). It's water resistant to 30M. I'm not very fond of those monster-sized watches that are popular these days; this one is perfect.CONS: The automatic movement (self-winds as you move) is reliable, but you'd better wear it all the time to keep it wound or invest in a watch winder. While it survives a few hours off your wrist at night it will definitely run down if you take it off for very much longer. The second hand keeps moving when you pull the stem to set it and that annoys me somehow.

This watch looks, feels and performs like a significantly more expensive watch.Let's start with the looks. The color of the blue face is rich looking, not cheap. The sheen on the bezel is just right -- bright but not too bright, which would make it look cheap, and not too matte either. The band is more matte, but it's beautifully done and so far seems to be sturdy.The craftsmanship on the band indicates the price point. The first week or so I wore it, it squeaked, but that's gone now (after a few months), and replaced with an ever-so-slight metallic movement sound. Not loud at all, but it's not silent either. The weight of this watch is perfect; again, something you'd expect from a much more expensive watch. The mechanics of setting the watch are straight-forward and feel solid. Only more time will tell how resilient the crystal is against normal "desk diving" in an office and home use environment.Setting the watch is easy. Working the clasp on the watch is easy. Adjusting the band appeared to be easy (I took it to a jeweler and it took about five minutes including one interim adjustment). The watch appears to have normal gain/loss, although I haven't been too scientific about it to find out how many seconds per week.Overall a fantastic value, I can comfortably recommend this watch as both a great dress and as a great casual watch.

Love the look of it. Feels sturdy and more expensive than it is. Easy to set, easy to resize the bracelet (you can just use a paperclip if that’s all you have). My first automatic watch, making a great impression!

Very happy with my purchase. This is my first non-quartz watch. The blue is the best I've seen, and with slight yellow accents it works well as a dress watch. Totally in love with the face. Holds time well, true to the Seiko 5 reputation. Super light, yet sturdy. The one drawback is that is is just an automatic, not one of Seiko's "kinetics." Meaning that there's no energy storage. So if I skip a day wearing it, be it to swap watches or just lounge over a weekend, I'll have to reset it come Monday morning. Generally about 24 hours or so between taking it off and it stopping altogether. A symptom, though, of the genre, not this specific watch. Give it a few quick shakes and you're back in business. The crown on this is a bit tiny, so it can be a pain to set and I have tiny fingers.If you're happy with that one minor con, you can't go wrong with this watch. Considering a Citizen Eco-Drive as a new daily, but even if I do I'll keep this one around.

Nice watch

Pictures and videos hardly do it justice. I think a previous buyer said it best: it's just an incredibly rich blue. It made my other blue watch dials seem gray or slate by comparison. The lume is very bright and clear when its absorbed enough, and having a dab of lume on the second hand I found appealing. The yellow accent is barely noticeable though, but I don't consider that a strike against it. It consistently runs fast, but I've found through my own research that that is considered typical of Seiko 5's straight out of the box (suspected as a long-term insurance against the inevitable slowdown of mechanicals over time), and since it's only been gaining an average of +5.44 seconds per day (varying as low as 2s and as high as 12s), that's within acceptable standards for a mechanical watch. I guess it could get regulated by a skilled watchmaker or jeweler, but I don't consider that necessary.If I had to lodge a complaint against it, I'd rail against Seiko's decision to include a paltry 10MM gap between the enormous lugs, but really that's kind of my own fault for being so enamored with the dial that I didn't even notice that case design since it's right there in the picture. This basically means there is no plan B if the strap breaks, but given its stainless of decent quality folded links, I don't anticipate that happening barring some serious rough and tumble which I'm not likely to see.My first mechanical, and already my other watches are jealous that this one is stealing so much wrist time. I just love the blue of the dial.

Love the way it looks but it is just too small. Felt very light when compared to my other watches. If you’re looking for just a dress watch that looks good, at a good price, then you might like this one but just felt light, not as sturdy as other watches. Also there is no illumination.

That's what the jeweler said when a stopped by to get the wrist band adjusted.

I bought this watch that was not new, but it was in very very good condition. I love it, it's so much nicer than the picture. I have bought quite a few watches from watchnation, and I will continue to buy more, because I have over 5. And they come with a stamped warranty cards. I am unfortunately sending one the of 2, I bought today back because I took the chance of getting it not new, but the crystal was scratched (not the one in the picture, although it's not new either). I would take it if it was just the bracelet, because it's hidden, or I could swap links when sizing it. However I will be buying another Seiko 5 from them. I recommend these watches. 🙂🙂🙂

Super schnelle Lieferung !Am 14. Juli morgens (2 Uhr) bestellt und am nächsten Tag den 15. Juli war die Seiko 5 - SNK615K1 Herrenuhr-Automatik in originaler Verpackung da. Die Lieferung kam aus Italien vom Händler ciaowatch und die Bestellung lief über Amazon.Die Garantiekarte ist mit Händlerstempel und Kaufdatum ausgefüllt, aber die Modell und Seriennummer wurde nicht eingetragen. Die Garantie beträgt 2 Jahre (EUROPA-Garantie von Seiko).Bisher läuft die Seiko sehr genau. Innerhalb von 6 Tagen konnte ich im Vergleich mit einer Funkuhr noch keine Abweichung feststellen. Die Verarbeitung und Optik gefällt mir sehr gut. Das Uhrenglas ist ein Hardlex Mineralglas (speziell gehärtet). Ich habe eine Lorus Armbanduhr mit Hardlex-Glas und diese stammt auch aus dem Hause Seiko. Diese Uhr trage ich schon mehre Jahre bei der Arbeit (in der Werkstatt) und das Uhrenglas hat bisher noch keinen Kratzer. Dieses zur Quallität.Eine genauere Aussage zur Qualität kann man natürlich erst nach längerer Benutzungszeit machen!Laut Seriennummer wurde die Uhr im September 2015 produziert und hat das Kaliber 7S26C.Dieses wird laut Internet-Info seit 2011 hergestellt. Es wurde also vom Verkäufer eine aktuelle Ware geliefert. Einige Käufer bemängeln die Armbänder der Seiko-Uhren in dieser Preisklasse, aber ich konnte nichts negatives feststellen. Auch die Wasserdichtigkeit von 3 bar (Spritzwasser geschützt) geht meiner Meinung nach in Ordnung. Mit der deutschen Anleitung von Seiko aus dem Internet ist die Einstellung vom Datum und der Uhrzeit kein Problem. Sollte man aber zur Information lesen, da die mitgelieferte Anleitung in englisch recht knapp gehalten ist.Aus heutiger Sicht würde ich mir die Uhr wieder kaufen.

Parfait. Joli cadran, de taille un peu inférieure à la moyenne des montres "homme", avec des aiguilles et des chiffres bien lisibles même dans l'obscurité. Etanchéité limitée à 30 m, ce qui est bien suffisant dans la majorité des cas ! L'ajustement de la longueur du bracelet est particulier, et j'ai un peu cherché... car je ne suis pas arrivé à télécharger le mode d'emploi: il suffit de pousser avec un objet pointu le petit ergot (le plus gros des deux) dans le sens de la flèche, ce qui dégage un élément coudé, lequel se retire facilement, dégager le maillon puis refaire l'opération sur un autre maillon afin d'ajuster la longueur du bracelet.

Look good and cheap, work well
