No Regrets! Exactly what I was hoping for!
PROS: Very satisfied! The dial is more of a deep navy blue compared to the one in the picture. However, I like it a lot better. It really complements the silver and design of the watch. It is solar power and they might've forgotten to mention, but the (hour & minute hand) & (hours 12, 3, 6, & 9) slightly glows green at night time. This is pretty cool and can be useful depending on where you're at. It's water resistant and suites/ fits fairly well on my wrist. Very well designed! ( Simple & flashy). Although, in my opinion, I don't believe this watch is entirely a "fashion" watch. In a way, I think its kind of sporty too. It's versatile, so I wear it on the daily and to all different kinds of event.Cons: The bands are manufactured in China. I'm not too crazy with Chinese materials, especially when it's cheaply made. Overall, it's not a bad watch. Still high quality and well worth the money. If you don't like it, Amazon will always refund you back your money in exchange for the original watch, of course. (As long as it doesn't say "Sales are final" then you're good!) Good Luck and Please enjoy!

Probably one of Seiko's best watches.
The diameter of the face while large is just right. The face isn't cluttered with various garbage nomenclature/logo stuff. It is fairly light weight fir its size, and it stays in place quite nicely. It will make a good beater watch with the quartz movement, no time lost like with the mechanicals. The day/date readability is excellent. White characters on a black background is the way to go. On my $800 Victorinox with black chars on white background I need reading glasses to read the date even though the digits are the same size. TAKE A NOTE WATCH MAKERS: put the date in white on a black background. One nice aspect is the solar. Won't have to change the batt for several years.

Nice
I didn't get what I ordered - the watch face is black. It looks nice though. I weigh about 270 and the adjustment on this band is only 1/8" in the clasp. There are no other links included. I contacted the Seiko website's authorized distributor/repair center in NJ. It will cost $9 for a link and another $9 for shipping and handling. The list on this watch is $250, so I guess it's not so bad. It's disappointing that I won't be able to wear this on my birthday, which is why I purchased it a week early. I like a watch that has weight to it. it's thick (but not clunky). I like it enough to keep it, since I have no guarantee that I will get what I ordered if I return it. It's a shame I can't contact the seller to try and work something out.***UPDATE 8/22/17 I was driving and the sun was shining on my watch face and I realized... It was a very dark navy blue! It's pretty cool, because depending on the lighting, you either have a black watch face or a navy blue one. More great news... if you need a link, they'll send you two for free! When I called the customer service center, they gave me an email address to request them to be shipped to me. I'm much happier with my birthday present. The best thing of all of course, is - it's a Seiko!

Watch is malfunctioning.
The watch is very nice, and I'm happy I bought it. However, I am unable to change the day. I can change the time and date, but the dial for the DAY will not function. I have other watches with day and date, and I know how to adjust this watch. It will not work. However, after several attempts, I was able to get the day wheel to turn. It was almost turning, but didn't go far enough. Eventually, it began moving. I don't know if something inside is loose and I'll be playing hit or miss with it. But having said that, once I got the correct day in the window, I shouldn't have to ever worry about it, since it is solar powered. It should never stop. My previous Pulsar solar lasted over 25 years without ever stopping.

Complete satisfaction.
This watch looks very stylish and has a very high quality finish on the face and crystal. It has a long lifetime on the battery after just a few hours of light for charging. After I removed the watch from its packaging and set the time it was off and running with just ambient light from indoor lighting. The next day I packed it into my luggage inside the box it arrived in and went on a trip. I unpacked the watch a week later and it was still running with accurate time. Under normal wear every day since it has maintained perfect time. This watch looks good with either casual or formal wear. I am completely satisfied with this purchase.

Great watch, premium feel/ look at an affordable price.
This is a great watch to have. For the price you get a high quality and sleek looking watch without breaking the bank. Can’t say enough good things about this watch. Has a good amount of weight to it, band has some thickness giving you that premium feel. Perfect for any occasion, you can dress up or down. Looks good either way.

Seiko men’s watch
I bought this Seiko men’s watch for myself, as I have very large wrists. It is a bit hard to set. It comes with a warranty, but no instructions for setting it. It’s a very good brand name, & a great price.

Stylish, distinct, minimal, and easy to read!
Pros:-Beautiful, minimal yet stylish watch- especially when you swap the metal band for a brown or black 22mm leather band,-Stands out and looks like a much more expensive watch (think Tag Heuer Carrera in blue)-Saturday is shown in a really nice teal and Sunday is in red (nice surprise)!-The crown rotates extremely smoothly and its size makes it easy to make adjustmentsNiggles:-Minute hands don't appear to line up exactly at the top of the minute-Runs a tad faster (2-3 seconds/week) than my other quartz chronograph Seiko's (<1 second/week)
