Title: Quick and dirty with the SBEX001
Post by: meoramri on August 04, 2015, 05:12:12 AM

When Seiko introduced the watch during Baselworld2015 I was hooked. Despite the dimensions I felt I could be able to carry it relatively well. So, I booked one.

Last month Seiko started the global delivery of the watch and I got mine. Hadn't the chance to experience the watch properly until yesterday. Honest, I am impressed with its wearability. A lot of people commented it's too big without really getting the chance to physically test it.

Yesterday I wore a suit and tie to work. It sits nicely on the wrist. No problem of snagging or anything like that. The curved lugs wraps its snugly on the wrist. Below are some photos of it on my wrist.

The screws on the endlinks give it a very robust and rugged look. Looks to be quite thick as well.

purely on dimensions yes. However the curve casing does make it more manageable. Will do a comparison test and will he back to you guys.
