In depth review of the new Land Prospex model, the SRPA77.
A possible future classic and one of the most legible watches I have held in my hands, powered by the 4R35 movement.

Sorry to be so offtopic but does someone know a trick to get back into an Instagram account?
I somehow lost my password. I would appreciate any assistance you can give me

Your rendition in the end is amazing, 100% would buy.
Just purchased this watch and I love it. Fits almost perfect. The color is a brown tone with a little copper accent. So easy to read the time. I was looking into purchasing a Alpinist, now I can put it off for a while. Thanks for the video, it was well done and not boring.
What an excellent, enjoyable review. Just ordered one!
I'm glad you liked it and congrats on a new watch 👍😊
I bought the SRPA71K1 and replaced the bracelet with a horween Zuludiver 22mm in brown and black and love the watch. These watches have every bit of the quality you'd expect with the Prospex line, and excels in legibility and lum. I believe I paid $209 at Amazon, and for what you're getting....really why buy a SKX?
The only reason I see is 1) if you want a watch you can/will mod 2) need a diver.
maybe also check this out: SRPD33K1
green dial - check
inner bezel and compass - check
automatic movement - check
200m water resistance - check
it's still 4R36, but i guess everyone else in the price range gets that too.
Benn trying to find this watch and it looks like its been discontinued...Its successor seems to be the SRPD33 series. You think you might get a chance to review these? I would buy the SRPD33 myself right now but its more expensive and hard to get for some reason. Jomanshop got an awesome sale coming up on it but trying to find reviews on the new watch is like pulling teeth.
Anyway this was a great review. Thanks!
Thanks for the quick instructions on utilizing the compass.
No problem
You had me at “most striking “....pulled the trigger on this one last night,,,,, awesome ,awesome review!
Thanks 😊 and congrats
Wow, I'm a lucky owner of the original Alpinist with a metal Strapcode bracelet but this model is a great looking rebel version of the original design. Great video!
Here great name, Rebel Alpinist 👍😄
Check out my giveaway announcement video I put up today, so you don't miss out on a free watch, although it's not an Alpinist 😜
Really like your in-depth reviews.
I am confused. Is it 45mm or 42? On the official website it says 42 though
Yay! You reviewed it! I have the SRPA95, and it's sweet....
+Leesherwood thanks for watching and a lovely watch you have 👍
excellent review, thanks
For a more appropriate alpinist "successor," please review the SRPD033.
I dunno I think the leather strap gives it a bit of a vintage feel. Maybe a Nato or Paratrooper strap for and Outdor trip but as an everyday? I'd stick to the brown leather. Either maybe this would be a good watch for a variety of straps. lol
AH! THANK YOU! Describes and demonstrates the crowns at 6:30
I prefer the SRPA73 case with the 71 dial. Seiko always gets it wrong for me.
This watch has a case diameter of 42mm not the 45mm as the video states. Other important spec is the lug width being 21 mm which makes buying aftermarket straps more difficult.
True i made a mistake, thanks for the info
I believe that just depends. With metal bracelets, yes (and the metal bracelet that came with my SRPA71K1 left a lot to be desired), but with NATO in nylon or leather, no problems fitting a 22mm. I am actually wearing my mine right now with a 22mm Horween Leather Zuludiver and everything slides through smoothly. Now I did have to work to get the thicker NATO straps through, but once in place on the bars, it worked great!
In the end, this is not a dress watch, nor do I think it really works to try to dress it up. This watch is definitely a casual/outdoors/utilitarian watch and as such really works best with something other than the metal bracelet that mine came with.
@@josh33172 I read an Amazon review that also said 21 mm. (I measured my Certina DS Caimano, which is claimed to have a lug width of 19 mm - but I measured both lug width and the leather strap to be over 20, and the case diameter was 39, not 38 mm - so the specs given e.g. on Amazon are in need of a pinch of salt. Either that or my caliper sucks.)
If the lug width is really 21 mm, that means NATO straps of 20 mm would be a bit too narrow - but would this be the case for all watches with a supposed lug width of 20 mm? With so many watches being specified as having 20 mm lug width, I was hoping to be able to "standardize" my future purchases, and have a single set of 20 mm wide straps - It would either have to be 20 or 22, since 21 seems to be more of an exotic choice.
I think this watch would look great with a green or camo strap.
I am wanting that watch in brown I seen one but don't know the references number
Buying one tomorrow
Great review and I don't like the leather band either.
Instead of nylon , my personal choice would be a soft silicone band with curved ends .
I've got the Ausy one ,true blue colour.
I bought a variant with a green nylon strap.
thanks for this knowledgeable review! a smaller case would be nice,, but,, this is doable, as you say, for a tool watch.
Are you sure about the diameter? I Saw some sites showing 42mm... TKS for the video
I think you are correct, as my caliper battery died when I was doing that review so I just found info online and it must have included the crown
Wow... You have some MAAAD FOOTAGE right there!!! sooo STUNNING!!!
I'm glad you like it
GOOD Afternoon!! I own a few Seiko and very happy with them , Excellent tutorial as usual n thank you for sharing!!! :-) :-)
+weedXD38 as usual thanks for watching
well that's a good looking watch , how much it cost ?
It was about $400
The way you write your script is absolutely fantastic
Thanks
Nice review. Awesome watch.. Got mine on a green nato and looks fantastic 😁👍👍
Phil Munslow you throw on a 22mm NATO or did you have to go smaller?
@@jolivas1437 22mm
Shame the compass feature isn't really all that...no one really wants to mess about moving the inner ring and then look for the sun! Nice legibility though.
I have both the alpinist and the black faced version of this watch. I do wish that it had a screw down crown like the alpinist. I am always nervous about swimming with a watch that doesn't have a screw down crown. Otherwise it's a great watch and it wears a lot smaller than the 45 mm size.
+Sam D. Oh wow you have a great taste!
I wouldn't worry about not swimming without a screw-down crown as I have been using my SNK805 in the water for years.
The only thing is that with age the gaskets will lose their properties so make sure to maintain them or have them replaced
Good video. Hadn't seen this model before
+Kakashi Hatake thanks and it's very interesting looking
Well done,,, straight to the point!!!! ps. You give the best tutorials .......
Thanks 😊
The watch is 42mm not 45, no ?
Yes, 45 is with crown
@@WatchGeek what is it with no crown then ?
Nice, thanks for the video!
+Steven thanks for watching
I like your joke in this review.
strange comment at 5:11.....
Yeah, what ........
lmao
Isn't it 42mm??
I think you're correct
I personally find it rather good looking..
How is the Seiko Lord spc109p1?
I've never handled one so can't say
Watch Geek
Even TH-cam has limited options to search for em. Thanks.
I'm sorry I couldn't help more.
I'll be making a giveaway of a GShock watch when I reach 10.000 subs, which should be in about 2-3 weeks so make sure to subscribe and follow the videos to see how to participate 👍
Watch Geek
Sure will do. Thanks. Wish I win. 🤞
Nice video
Thanks
I got n change strap I love it !!!!
Seiko is sweet !!!
Congrats 👍😁
The strap is a 22mm or a 20mm?
have that watch in the Japanese made version LOVE IT,the lume is the BEST IVE EVER SEEN.;-)
Yes the lume is amazing on this one
great looks
+RondelayAOK I totally agree 👍
why green dial?????
There are other versions
Everything is great but that big red north arrow. If it was white, it would be perfect
I know what you mean although I actually like it
Handy if you sail at night
Perfect .
+željko marović 😊
I wish they had e version more stelthy with not white indecies
Speaking of tools... I just need an automatic watch with good clicky side rule
I don't think you'll find one, slide rulers come with friction resistance not clicks, at least I have never seen one with clicks.
If you do find one, let me know
I think Seiko came out with your dream watch- and perhaps mine too- SRPB65J1.
That is a stunning looking watch 😛😛😍😍
Now on my wrist-- the SRPB05J1. Watch Geek made me do it.
Haha congrats
LOL, I hope the rescuer do not need any rescuing.
Haha a rescuers rescuer would probably wear a GShock
I have this watch too. One of the worst in my collection. Looks the part but does not meet expectations. That rotating bezel rotates whether you want it to or not. Keeps lousy time on top of that. "Professional Specs" my foot! Everyone makes mistakes, and Seiko is no exception. Someone get me eBay on the phone quick.
The leather strap is a real crap, it holds only one year by daily use and its very expensive. I needed 3 straps in 3 years. That doesnt go with the brands quality.
****SPOILER ALERT**** This watch is NOT suitable for sexual predators!
😂😂👍👍
If only they would not put that silly looking X on the dial.
Intro to long
You can speed up the video 😄
Seiko always cuts corners and can't keep proper time.
how so?
Ryan Sumner Seiko is bad at preventing sweat from getting into the watch😞. And the time keeping😭 +35 seconds a day.😞
How many Seikos have you had that had those problems?
i have several seikos and the keep great time as well as rolex and omega like 3 to 5 seconds a day ;-)
Watch Geek 3. They used to make good Watches. Not anymore. The worst I that I had was the Seiko 5 Sport.
