A Review Of Seiko 5 Automatic Map Meter Skz209k1 Skz209k Mens Watch

By:


This Seiko Automatic watch is outstanding watch from Seiko. SKZ209K1 is a Seiko 5 automatic map meter mile marker watch. This sports 200m combines the styling and shape of Seikos new and old to give a watch that is certainly different - rugged looking and substantial yet not too large as to make wearing it uncomfortable. This watch is Atlas series watch contains four different versions with different color on the dial (blue, white and black). The design is beautiful. On the wrist the watch feels very good. The crown is a screw - down placed at 4 a clock. This is good due to it prevent the crown to dig into your wrist. Otherwise, the crown very manageable and there is no problem to set either the time or date. There is also a second crown, which is for the compass located at 9 oclock. The Dial is easy to read even if its little messy.

This Seiko watch has one direction rotating bezel. It takes some effort to turn the bezel but that also reduces the chance of moving it unintentionally. Otherwise the look of the bezel is just too damned beautiful with its dark blue color. The bracelet was the best is also good quality and nice looking with no huge gaps between the links. On the surface this is one great bracelet. The links are all solid and it feels safe thanks to a superb 2-button clasp. The strap which was included with the watch is Seikos Z22 rubber band. The movement is a 7S36. This is a nice automatic seiko watch with a functional solar compass and decent accuracy (I get +10 seconds a day). The day indicator can be shown in both French or English.

The finish of the watch is really cracking. The case and bracelet are solid and show very fine tolerances. There are polished surfaces but they are not over-done and the watch has a sporty yet sophisticated appearance. The dial has good contrast and is easy to read in all lighting. At night, the luminous hands are very bright. The crystal is flush and shows low reflectivity. This mens watch is powered by automatic movement which means the winding of the spring occurs automatically when the wearer moves his arm. The aluminum handle is very sturdy and feels good in your hand. The blade opening mechanism works and enables you to open the knife quickly with either your left or right hand. A safety switch can lock the blade in place to prevent accidental opening. The bayonet clip rides low in your pocket so that no part of the knife is visible. The clip can also be removed and moved to the opposite side for use with your other hand.
