  • Seiko Air Divers 200M Prospex Special Edition, PADI. Automatic.

    This is my 4th Seiko Diver. I started to own these in the 1980’s. For the most part they did a decent job. The most recently retired “Monster” that I owned was really all not that durable, in fact I was rather surprised how tender of a time piece it was. The other 2 previous divers held up very well but the automatic movements suffered overtime with loss of accuracy. Seiko has a “factory” service center located in Northern New Jersey. Just sending in your watch is a $100.00 dollar minimum endeavor, then they hit you with the repair bill. There are various jewelers on the Internet that specialize in rebuilding/servicing Seiko divers but most have a 6 month waiting list and costs start at about $350.00 and go from there. For that reason the Seiko brand came into question when you consider this would be watch number 4 with 3 others collecting dust. For my hard earned dollar it seems like it’s a throw away watch when the service costs are far greater than what the watch is worth. This recent Seiko diver purchase was very carefully considered. I needed a watch that could be hand wound, fully waterproof, had a day date feature, a rotating bezel and good lume for dark conditions. Based on reviews from watch geeks the world over, the 4R36 Seiko movement was accurate, durable and a step up over previous divers automatic movements. As far as fit and finish, this model watch with it’s all stainless steel band definitely has some wrist weight. The band fits beautifully on the wrist with adjustments on the clasp end to facilitate a real decent fit as far as rigid bands go. I normally wear a nylon 5 ring military type band for my needs and had planned on swapping this stainless band out but it fits so well I am holding off. The bezel on this model is very nice. It has nice movement and is easy to grasp and does not feel cheap. The day date feature is easy to use and view. The lume is bright even after 8 hours all things considered. The PADI model has a blue dial coupled with a blue and red bezel. Based on advertising images on the web I was a little concerned that the watch was going to be a little brighter and showier than I originally had wanted, but after receiving the watch I was delighted that the face and bezel were closer to a hue that bordered on black. The red was also closer to a maroon not a bright red. Since wearing the watch I have noticed no time loss/gain as of yet. I am really hoping they got this movement right for the long haul. I work in a very rural setting so having cell signal, watch battery replacement abilities and all the other luxuries of civilization is not really an option. That reason coupled with long periods of winter darkness made a solar powered model not a good choice either. The PADI version is a bit dressier which I wanted without being overbearing or gaudy. On a scale from 1 to 10, I would give the Seiko Prospex PADI diver a solid 10 for the money. Let’s hope that it’s intended purpose of keeping accurate time in harsh conditions stays strong.

  • Wears better than imagined!!!

    Ok, so I've been into watches for some time now. And of course Seiko is one brand I have many of, and love. But the photos of the cushioned case Turtle never did appeal to me. Idk but something about the shape and size I never thought would look good on me. Then recently, since I own just about every other popular model Seiko under the $1k price tag, I decided to pick up a Turtle to round out my collection. I choose the PADI Edition one. And WOW I'm glad I did! This thing fits great! Wears great! And looks even better! I love it, and especially the bold sunray dial really pops! I don't know why I didn't give it a chance sooner. I have a 7.5" wrist and the 45mm case size is the largest I go (and 40mm is the smallest). This Seiko Turtle has been my new daily favorite for like 5 days/wk! And I have over 30 decent quality watches to choose from. So anybody on the fence about buying a Seiko Turtle, I'd say definitely do it. Buy it and try it on! And you'll see why it's so popular and so many different color models made. Buy one and give it a chance! And to the population of people who really are slender with small wrists Seiko makes the Mini Turtle. Check it out

  • Favorite watch

    I received my Prospex PADI turtle 2 weeks ago and I haven’t worn another watch since. It’s 44mm but because of the shape it seems and feels smaller. The color of the face and bezel are perfect and I think they look better in person than any picture can show. I changed my bracelet to a leather Barton band and now I can change the look whenever I want.. The 4R36 movement seems to be accurate enough since I set the time to my iPhone time 2 weeks ago and they are still in sync.. not bad!! I can’t recommend this enough to anyone that is looking for a great looking watch with some collectibility and value.. probably the best diver for the money out there!

  • Nice Watch (with a couple of caveats)

    PROS: Overall, I like the watch but it isn't as convenient as my Seiko Prospex Divers watch since that has a capacitor which holds a charge for a week or two. This watch has a nice appearance and I've been wearing it for a month or so now. I had been wearing a titanium watch and I was concerned about how heavy this watch might be. Fortunately, it's not really very heavy. Initially, it seemed to lose time overnight but I think it was just that it wasn't fully wound and I wasn't wearing it that many hours each day. For the last couple of weeks it's been keeping accurate time. The rotating bezel was changed to one marked with hours (rather than minutes) and I like the appearance. CONS: The watch band came apart several times when I first got it; however, it's been staying intact for a while now. The problem seems to have been caused by the design of the lugs. If you don't wear this watch every day, you'll want to see if you need to reset it (because it doesn't seem to stay wound for very long). On the positive side, you can rewind it manually (using the stem) or by moving the watch. I find it handier to wind it with the stem than by shaking it.

  • Great looking diver that wears very comfortably.

    I really like the looks of the watch and the case shape is classic and wears very well, even on a smaller wrist. The stock bracelet is good quality but heavy so I added an OEM Seiko rubber strap. Looks great and much lighter at 121g on Rubber strap. Excellent lume as usual, average accuracy at -15/day.

  • Amazing dollar for dollar best dive watch for the money update just bought another a year after first seiko to save money has cheapened box.

    I own many high end dive watches in the 3-13000 range. Dollar for dollar this watches dial Bezel and case construction are on par as is the movement which seiko makes in house. First week lost six seconds a day as it broke in second week 3-4 seconds a day which is within chronometer standards of 3-5 a day. Bracelet is not assembled with screws , yes but the watch was 265.00 and remember before the mid 80s Rolex submariner had a bracelet construction inferior to this. I bought a few I know once they are sold out they will be 700-1000 easily

  • Attractive and Accurate

    Excellent watch and really attractive to boot. The one I have is very accurate for a mechanical watch. For over the little two weeks I've had them, they lose 3 sec per day. It's still settling in so I anticipate its accuracy will change somewhat over time and also due to changes in temperature as would be the case with all mechanical watches. I'm very happy with this purchase.

  • Great Looking PADI

    I’m actually in the process of collecting several PADI’s, this Samurai is just an added pleasure to the collection, I really enjoy the watch, it’s a Seiko, if you’ve never owned a Seiko, or plan too in the near future, this one is a great start. The reason I give it only 4 stars, I expected to receive the watch inside it’s plastic simulated dive box, a bit disappointed. It arrived inside the genetic Seiko Watch box.
