Men's SSC947 Prospex Speedtimer Watch

I absolutely love this watch! I've never been a watch snob but for the longest time, I did gravitate towards expensive "high-end" brands but I was never really happy with them. The more I thought about it, the more I agreed that I simply do not like mechanical watches. I know that's an unpopular opinion in the watch world but they're not for me! I then began looking for high quality quartz watches that feel high end, but don't cost a fortune. This is it! This Seiko Speedtimer line to me is perfect! These watches measure 41.4mm so they have just the right amount of wrist presence, not too large, not too small. The case length and height are both super comfortable and I even love the bracelet it came on. I've bought other Seikos before in the $500 price range that still had cheap bracelets with hollow end links, but that's not the case with this one. In my opinion, this watch should be closer to the $1k mark if they wanted to but at this price it's a bargain! I was torn between which colorway to buy when I first started researching these 41mm Speedtimers and the Pogue-colorway was the first one I got. (I have 4 now, and one of the 39mm ones, that's how much I like them!) I was a little worried that being the dial is goldish-yellow that it would be hard to see, but not there is enough contrast between the dial and the hands to make this easy to read at a glance. The lume is excellent and the two-toned bezel give it a pop of color that makes the watch feel fun and sporty. Plus, I love telling people the colonial Pogue story when they ask about it. If that wasn't enough, I upgraded the bracelet to a jubilee from Islander Watches and wow that really brings out the retro aesthetics in this thing! I didn't even know they made a bracelet for these 41mm Speedtimers. I had searched and searched, even in forums and all I could find were bracelets for the 39mm ones, and mentions that they would be making one soon. Then I was browsing their site and I found it, it's model BRAC-111 (for the jubilee) and wow its super comfortable and adds a bit more bling to the watch. I think Islander needs to improve their SEC maybe, because when I searched nothing had popped up, but anyway, I wanted to mention it in my review in case others are looking for one.

Watch got to me fast! Excellent quality, authentic Watch! I love the look as well, very eye-catching for a great price.

Timeless look yet modern as well, comfortable to wear and is sporty and yet can be worn dressed up as well. This watch has the Seiko quality you can depend on and not a bad deal for the money. Highly recommended to anyone looking for a high end quality watch without the high end price tag. PS love the fact it's charged by sunlight so no batteries needed.

Is a beautiful piece

Very pleased with this purchase! Watch as described and about $200 cheaper than my local jewellers priced it. Package came within 3 days. Presentation box was nice and came complete with instructions and warranty.

Beautiful watch! The pictures don’t do it justice.

Received my watch and it is flawless. I love this watch. Well worth the money.

My favorite watch! I have many watches but I find myself wearing this watch a lot. I have large wrists and I didn’t have to remove any links so be aware that if your wrists are around 8 inches you might have to get more links. I love the solar aspect of it and it’s grab and go nature. It’s also very striking and would be wearable on virtually any wrist size if not too large. Its very comfortable to wear for hours.
