Hi everyone, i'm new here and this is my first watch review.
The watch im reviewing today is the new Seiko Superior divers 200m. I bought it a few months ago and now im ready to give my two cents about it.

Image of watch:
Mine in the box:
As you can see from the photo it sports a rubber shroud to protectvit against shocks and scratches. The crown is at the 4 o'clock position. it has wide lugs too at 22mm.
Close up of dial:
The dial is only in black colour but has generously sized hour markers and hands, which makes telling the time an easy job. The lume is also well applied. The bezel is undirectional and rotates in 12o clicks. There is a day date window at the 3 o'clock position. This function is a must for me,( i always forget the day and date.)
The caseback and bracelet:
The caseback sports the standard tsunami logo on all Seiko divers caseback. The bracelet is solid stainless steel and adjusted by pins. The clasp is a signed Seiko clasp.
The clasp:
The clasp is standard divers Z-type lock. Very well built.
The lume:
The lume on this watch is the lumibrite from Seiko, the best in town.
This watch comes with the relatively new 4R36 movement which has manual winding capability and second hand hacking.
Overall this watch is sturdy and well built. Although it is a tad heavy, i got used to it after a while.Hence i think that it is an stylish and yet affordable divers watch.
Hope you guys like this review.
Thanks.
