Seiko SRP031k1 watch review

Amateur review of my absolute favorite watch in my collection. I originally bought this watch as an affordable alternative to a Sinn or Lum-Tec or Bell & Ross and similar “pilot watches” of that style, which i love. As i saved up a little more money, i often considered replacing my Seiko with a Sin 656 or Lum-Tec M series. However, i always end up thinking, “Why? Why pay hundreds of dollars more for basically the same watch?” The Lum-Tecs even use Japanese Miyota movements (at least, the ones that i can afford). And Sinn uses Swiss ETA movements. I would much rather have a high quality, affordable watch, with a similar, yet original design, from a reputable watchmaker, with an in-house movement. And that’s exactly what the Seiko SRP031k1 is. I plan on using this watch for as long as it keeps ticking. Sorry if the quality sucks. Video shot and uploaded from my Motorola Droid 2.
