The Presage line by Seiko is one of the few subsets of Seiko that has not gotten the same global adulation like the Grand Seiko, Prospex and Seiko 5 families. This was due to the fact that Presage was reserved for the Japanese domestic market. However, this unfortunate situation has been reversed with the sub-brand now being made available to the global market as well.



The Presage line carries only mechanical powered watches. The design is more towards formal wear with a tinge of sportiness. From a price point of view, it is placed between the Premier and the Prospex lines. Some of the manufacturing technologies, materials as well as high-end mechanical movements that are hallmarks of the Grand Seiko and Credor lines can sometime be found in the Presage line while maintaining the price window. Items such as enamelling and polishing techniques, use of Sapphire crystals as well as derivatives of the best mechanical movements can be found in some models of Presage. This makes the Presage one of the most value-for-money timepieces to get if you want to collect some of the technologies and materials used by Seiko in their higher-end lines. The ā€œJā€ code on the model reference for this watch is indicative of the manufacturing origin which is in Japan.



The SSA303J1 uses the new 4R57 movement. This movement has a power reserve complication that shares the same central axis as the other three hands on the watch.

Due to the LE factor and the beautiful blue dial it could be hard press to find a cheaper source. Not seen this particular piece in Mid Valley though.

Johor bahru here is more worse, the RRP before discount is RM2650.

I find it blue dial beautiful but the watch seems very thick on wrist.

It's a very shiny watch. The rose gold colored hands and markers really stand out in most lighting conditions. The blue dial appears dark except under the sun.

Which model are you looking for?

Isetan outlets usually have. Also City Chain and Hang Thai watches.

I have a Seiko Presage SARW013 which is beautiful :)

Sorry bro for the late reply, was traveling. This version was brought into Malaysia but was informed only a handful of them and was all grabbed by the collectors. RRP was RM12xxx. as stated in Seiko Malaysia Facebook.

Can check SeiyaJapan.com for this model price. Don't think its RRP is RM12xxx a pop.
