It’s really great. I find myself wearing it more than my older Seikos. I guess I like having a decent crown that isn’t practically reassessed into the case.
Great video! I was able to pick up a used SRPE53 for $120 - hard to beat that in terms of value. Looks great on this strapcode jubilee after seeing your video, gonna need to order one of these! The Strapcode jubilee is ~$20 less than the Uncle Seiko one, so it’s a no brainer
I just got the 53 and it looks fantastic. The only issue I found with it is the gap between the crown and the case seems too wide. All of the pictures and videos I've seen of the watch it appears that there is really no gap so I assume mine has a quality control issue. Anyone else have this issue?
Hi! ls it a bit noisy when you move your wrist? I can hear like a sublte rattle/zippery sound when the rotor spins. I want to know if its normal. Thanks!
It’s hard to argue against the seiko. Every time I wear it, especially with the new bracelet, I always marvel on how nice it looks. The new Tudor Black Bay 39 is definitely better watch objectively. It just feels and operates how you would expect a $4000 watch to work but the seiko is the value king. The black bay may cost over 10 times more but it’s not 10 times better. If price is not a concern, I would go with the Tudor.
Don’t waste your money on strap code. Buy uncle Seiko instead. They will send you defective bracelets and only give you 20$ for your troubles. They wont let you post any negative reviews on their website only 5 stars super sus company to deal with! Very manipulative tactics from this company. I’ve bought an angus jubilee for my SARB017 and never wasting another $1 on this company
I have SRPE 61 on Strapcode Jubilee for over a year now and it is so addictive i cant take it off !!!
This watch is quickly becoming my favorite Seiko now.
I put my SRPE53 on the strap code asteroid bracelet and haven’t worn any of my other watches since. It looks incredible and it’s so comfortable.
hi, what's your dial colour.? i would like to get one...

Amazing Jubilee, elevate the Seiko 5 even further. Worth the price! What a class!!

Man, awesome setup, gonna do this with SRPE55... the SSK019 felt so bulky but loved the strap!
I can do 39mm 40mm watches but wow this looks great in hand just not on my 8.5in wrist

And strapcode is better too since it has a solid endlink compared to uncle seiko

Super nice Seiko and bracelet. Solid review! 👍
Strapcode bracelet looks killer. Hoping there is no logo on clasp?
good video... was surious about the strapcode.

I can’t hear anything like that on mine.
@@TheTimekeeper the rotor doesnt make any noise when it spins?
How do you think this compares to your Tudor Black Bay 39? Clearly two different levels of watches and movements but are the look and feel similar?

Great looking Seiko and bracelet! Solid review… 👍

Can you introduce the model of the old Seiko that you are wearing in this video, thank you

Seiko, why not a quartz version?
I have 2 seiko quartz watches. This one is automatic only.
Can we replace the clasp with the seiko original?
Maybe but the finish may be off
What size with the braclet
Debating between getting the president or jubilee bracelet.
Personally, I like the jubilee for this watch.
Jubilee bro, strap code president is not a true president style imo
What is the model number of this watch ? SRPE53K1 ?
The Uncle Straps jubilee is the better choice over Strapcode. Clasp is far more refined and it has female endlinks
But it's stamped no? Also i heard the uncle seiko has a hollow endlink
Looks like an op
Just amazing that we have to spend another almost $100 to give a Seiko, one of the oldest brands, a decent bracelet! 🙄
Seiko makes higher end watches with better bracelets. I just appreciate how nice their lower end products are when paired with a quality bracelet.
With Seiko you get what you pay for 😊

That definitely doesn’t sound like good customer service. Thanks for sharing.
