As a die hard Street Fighter fan I have to say Seiko did excellent. The Chun Li and Ryu definitely are my two favorites and from what I’ve seen are the only ones that had a good amount of thought placed into the design. Overall I loved your video, and thank you for giving these watches some attention!
Just purchased the Ryu and the Chun Li editions after watching your video. I think I might have the same watch affliction... It's not an addiction. Honestly.
Loved the game, but find the watches a bit garish. Maybe they will bring out some new darker variants next year with the boss characters, Balrog, Vegas, Sarah, and M.Bison (my favourite character)
You r so right,,, Seiko should have a limited box for all these watches... Maybe Seiko will do part 2 limited edition watches of the Street Fighter soon,, seeing how successful they were sold.
I've been confused by the lack of coverage of these, this is the second I've seen on them, and first with the whole set. I love mine. had to drop the change on them when they dropped! The Ryu one is the best IMO
I have 1 normal seiko 5. I know they get a lot of flack from watch enthusiasts (especially seiko enthusiasts) but I really like my seiko 5 a lot. I'm just getting into watches and I think it's a perfect watch to get started with. It's made me realise i enjoy wearing watches and I'm ready to get something else now!
Nice to see them all in one place. Personally not a fan of them despite my love for Seiko. Also agree that as a special addition they could have made the presentation boxes better. If you just put the watches in a watch box with cushions this will shape them more to your wrist quicker.
I’m just catching up with this video now. Great review! I really enjoyed it. Street Fighter holds a special place in my heart too so I can absolutely see the appeal of these watches. There’s something wonderful about someone wearing Patek Philippe gloves to handle some Seiko limited editions. A testament to the fact that any watch can speak to us for any number of reasons and have a place in a collection 👍
I see that there are different model numbers for some of these that look the same, like the Blanka I want. Are there small differences? Thanks. Good review.
The watches are great, but I am deeply impressed by your knowledge of Street Fighter. Bravo Damian! Glad to know you're a fan. In for a first to five some time?
Put a crown on these watches and you will see all the haters and critics in this comments section run to their local ADs. All these guys want to watch are Rolex videos.
I bought 2 Ryu watches and will return them. According to the specs, the case diameter is 42.5mm, however, it is smaller than my Hamilton 41mm case diameter. Something is not right. Hope someone can verify this discrepancy. There is no way their case size is 42.5mm. 38mm is likely the case size.
I am not getting the praise for these, they are trying to tickle the member berries, and are designed as collectables. And to the last they look rotten.
The Ken is waaaaay better than the rest. Also will be the most collectable. Hes the best 👌 how can u call the Ken a stinker?!! Woooooooow any1 who collects will agree, Ken and ryu, and chun li are the most collectable.
Damian, i sent you a DM on the CarGuys Instagram With the link of a dealer here in Portugal, who is selling that Patek limited edition from when they opened the other factory Years ago, thought you would be interested because you mentioned it at your latest Patek vídeo Cheers from Portugal, and Thank you for your content on both of your channels
Disappointing episode, I moved on after 3 minutes, waiting for next Sunday. Doesn’t have to be about £40 000 watches. Damian, why not talk about Laco ?

I agree 👍
Seiko are fabulous they have watches for all budgets.

Honestly, these seikos are a little bit gaudy for me

Perfect, glad you feel that way, Omar

Good idea
The white band white dial is easily my favorite it feels more classy then the others. All are fun though

The only differences are cosmetic - so strap and dials
As I work in video games these should be my jam, but decided not to pick any up. Nearly went for the Ryu, nearly ...
The last Seiko 5 I bought cost me £35 about 13 or 14 years ago. I've been wearing it constantly the last few months.
Have never heard of these before. Very cool. I wonder if they’ll do a Jet Set Willy collection soon ! 😉
Does the entire set have a good resale value?
No idea, I’m afraid. Probably not
great video about a game that I also played many times, I really liked the Ryu and The Chun Li models, but didn't like any of the straps.
Agreed
The watches are great, but I am deeply impressed by your knowledge of Street Fighter.
Bravo Damian!
Glad to know you're a fan.

Sadly that’s true
Not my cup of tea at all, but as ever I admire your dedication to collecting. All the best.
Well, we already have military watches and Ryu's is a bit too ordinary for this edition. I am going to go for Blanka
Blanka is bonkers - I love it too
Funny and freaky episode 😁

I have two “ordinary” Seiko5’s, am sorely tempted to add a couple of these as well, google here I come.....

You are correct sir
I have just re-watched the video, and I believe that the bezel of the Blanka is badly misaligned. :)
Great video, but Im just got tired of all the many Seiko limited ed. that they keep popping out at high prices. They are really milking every fan 🐄🐄🐄🐄
The Ken is waaaaay better than the rest. Also will be the most collectable. Hes the best 👌 how can u call the Ken a stinker?!! Woooooooow any1 who collects will agree, Ken and ryu, and chun li are the most collectable.
It's called an opinion.
I agree. Ken is the best
All except white available at list in usa, I predict prices will fall later like the timex q
Maybe
Wheres the 47mm e honda edition?
Thankfully, still on the drawing board

I don’t think I received that
@@TheWatchGuysTV i sent it to you on sunday 8pm, the name is jguicflino of my account
Cheers
Big fan of the game franchise but I don't like the watches. They look really cheap, they're like toy watches to me.
Dude, you just can’t call a Rolex GMT Master II a ‘beater’
Its a sports watch, its made to be a “beater”
WOOF WOOF WOOF 👎🏼
Disappointing episode, I moved on after 3 minutes, waiting for next Sunday.
Doesn’t have to be about £40 000 watches. Damian, why not talk about Laco ?
Is it disappointing because it’s about Seiko?
@@TheWatchGuysTV nothing against Seiko, but these are toys, not watches.
Really enjoyed this. The video is about the cheaper end of the watch world and a great theme set for people of my and Damian’s age!
@@markwoodacre3903Well, not all viewers were kids in 1990. Good for you though if you enjoyed this Seiko one
