Being in the market for something slightly more modern, I opted for a Seiko 5. The number stands for:
1 Shock resistant
2 Water resistant
3 Automatic
4 Day display
5 Date display
The watch is small, comfortable, light and is luminous, allowing you to see the time even in very low levels of light. The automatic movement means no batteries. Just moving your wrist turns an arrangement that winds the watch. Turning the watch over, you can see the movement at work. It is really an impressive little pi...more

Watches, I don't need no stinking watches! ------------------------------------------------------- To begin with, a confession. When I started carrying a mobile, I stopped wearing watches for quite a few years. What was the point? In one fell technological swoop, they went from being must-have devices to why-have devices. Then I got to choose an expensive watch as an award. A Tag Heuer. However, the fulfilment company was being a pain. They wouldn't give me the watch advertised as they ran out. They offered, and expected me to be grateful for, an alternative men's Tag worth half of the woman's Tag still being offered. Bugger them, I thought, ... Read the complete review

This watch has a stylish simplicity to it. The face is very tidy and clear making it easy to tell the time. The second hand sweeps round in a smooth motion, as opposed to other watches where it jerks awkwardly. Obviously, this isn't exactly its main selling point, but it's just a nice touch- one of many. The steel body is clean and sleek. The watch is not too heavy, and can be worn comfortably for long periods of time. There is no battery change which I like. If the power in the watch is left to drain, it can quickly be repowered in next to no time. The movement is mechanically driven, which means that it does lose accuracy a little. ...

I bought the Men's Seiko 5 Automatic Watch SNXS79 for my father's 80th birthday and he is absolutely delighted with it. The Seiko 5 range comes with a selection of face colours, including blue, white and black. (I believe I also saw a green or gold face, but please check this on the websites if you intent to purchase, as I was rather 'watched out' after surfing so many watches prior to purchase!) I deliberated between the white and black, eventually choosing the black which seemed easier for older eyes to read the hands. When it arrived, I was delighted with the actual colour - which instead of being a dense black, was a very tasteful charcoal ... Read the complete review

I love watches! Don't know why, just do! Seiko are a japanese company and i think have been making watches since the early sixties. The seiko 5 has been around in different guises for at least two decades. This latest offering is just as good as its predecessors. Whats great with the seiko 5 is that its automatic, meaning it doesn't need a battery and it doesent need winding. it winds itself simply by movement so as long as you keep wearing it, it will keep on ticking! Most premium watches such as rolex and tag heur are automatics. The strap, and the case is made of high grade stainless steel which never loses its brightness. The day, date and time are all easy to ... Read the complete review
