Description

In the Seiko 5 Sports range there is a new watch case shape, a nice classic small case with a large crown at 3. It is a little bit bulkier than the small 38mm Seiko5’s, which is mainly because the quality has improved: the case is heavier, the glass is thicker and domed, the case back looks nicer. Also the movement has the 4R36 in it.

This SRPJ83 has a military kind of dial, and looks a bit like the good old SNK803. It is a little bit bigger and higher (mainly because of the domed hardlex). The numbers are applique, which is very nice, to me this is a step up compared to the SNK803.
To change the appearance, just switch to another 18mm nato-strap (or 2-piece). The lugs are drilled-through, so changing the strap is easy!

The installed glass is single domed hardlex. It has a dome and will give some distortion when you look at the dial from an angle. A good option is to have sapphire installed, you can choose between flat and double domed; both have no distortion (add the sapphire to the order, and use the option “install ORDERED sapphire”)!

This watch comes in a Seiko Sports gift box.
