amazon SEIKO 5 SPORTS TURTLE SRPB17K1 reviews
From the first eye contact, you will be impressed immediately with the body with a special design called “Turtle Case” with a very large size; the design is curved seamlessly from the upper to the bottom line, making people Thinking about images of turtles. This design originated in the 20s of the last century with the name Tonneau especially popular as a symbol for sports watches 50 years later. In this period, the watch world broke out the automatic Chronograph war between Zenith, the Chronomatic alliance led by Breitling, Tag Heuer, and Seiko’s representative from Japan. This Sports Turle watch is the “descendant” of that classic design in modern times.
Turtle case makes a difference, outstanding for the wearer that is completely not boring or confused with the already popular design. Even Rado’s New Original line in this style has become a very popular icon.
The watch’s case has a strong, sporty design with a diameter of up to 44mm, suitable for those with a wrist circumference of about 17.5cm or more.
In addition to the unique casing, the dial also possesses impressive characteristics. The dial appears neat, scientific, and has a clear red background that completes the Fume format for a fancy, fanciful color display. Highlight on the dial is the large needle set and white square number pile set. All are super bright photoluminescent coating on a large area to support observing the bright index in low light conditions. Besides, the brand name and the symbolic “5” figure represent a much higher level of perfection than the Seiko 5 series products in general.
When you come up with this watch, you will feel its difference compared to the Seiko 5 Classic or Seiko 5 Army when the material is made entirely from solid steel, finishing with the scratch milling industry for an Extremely smooth feeling.
Watching from the back of the watch, you can recognize the No. 1 brand in Japan that used 4R36 engine instead of 7S – this is a priority for 5 Sports. Caliber 4R36 is a mid-range movement commonly used on higher-priced DressWatch models such as Premier or Presage, which outperforms Seiko’s 7S military 7S. The most obvious difference in this machine is the addition of two important features: up to the hands and stop the second hand to adjust the time. These two features are considered to be a huge advantage of Seiko 5 Sports Turtle. In addition, the system provides a full calendar of dates and schedules that are convenient for the owner to track the time.
