This Seiko watch is rated water resistant to 200 meters.

About Seiko
In 1877, at the age of 18, Kintaro Hattori set up business repairing the Western-style clocks that were becoming increasingly popular in Japan. By 1892, Hattori was manufacturing his own clocks in a factory he called Seikosha, from the words "seiko" meaning "exquisite," "success," or "miniature," and "sha" meaning "house." The company grew and prospered, producing its first wristwatch in 1913 and launching the Seiko brand in 1924. Technological innovation has always been a driving force in the company's history. Key milestones include Seiko's introduction of the world's first quartz watch in 1969, and its successful launch, in 1988, of the Kinetic, the world's first battery-free watch with quartz accuracy. Recognized for its technological excellence, Seiko has provided timekeeping services for the Olympic Games and the World Cup Soccer Championships. Today, the Seiko brand continues to stand for state-of-the-art technology, as well as superior quality and refined design.

Nice watch, feels a bit fragile
4 Stars
Nice watch, feels a bit fragile
The watch keeps good time and looks really nice. The only issue I have is the compass knob. It is loose and feels flimsy. There is a slight bit of play as well. I would still recommend it at 250ish but as others have said the compass will turn while you wear it so it never stays where it is set. I’m not willing to test it’s water resistance and the loom is not quite as bright as my other seiko watches.
Thank you for your feedback

5.0 out of 5 stars Seiko Landshark BUY IT NOW!
Reviewed in the United States on April 17, 2023
I have a 7.25 inch wrist. The watch seems smaller than what I expected. To give you a point of reference I include a picture of a 48mm case. I was concerned the 42 inch millimeter case might look a little small on my wrist as I can't even get near 40 mm watch it just looks too small on me. Because of the screw down at 4:00 and the compass at 9:00 gives the watch a slightly greater wrist presence. I'm a machinist and different types of finish blasted polished really gives a watch a nice aesthetic. This is my first Seiko and I was really impressed by the bracelets comfortability and just how it sits nicely. large hands easy to read decent loom first time with hardlex glass so the jury is still out on that feature. The bezels edge constantly grabs my attention in a good way. This was one of the best watch purchases I've made in years. Thanks for bringing back a legendary Seiko, knocked it out of the park.

5.0 out of 5 stars El mejor SEIKO 5 a un muy buen precio.
Reviewed in Spain on October 13, 2022
Original SEIKO, mas impresionante en vivo que en fotos, acabados muy trabajados, pulidos, arenados y cepillados muy bien hechos, reloj fuerte, peso moderado pero no molesta, armis macizo y fácil de acortar, al tener dos coronas va bien para ambos brazos, brújula útil, no es de adorno, lume potente, no esperaba menos de SEIKO.
Decir que es más pequeño de lo que parece, pero con bisel grueso (dejo fotos comparativas con Pospex), lo que lo hace llamativo, yo estoy muy contento. Lo recibí funcionando, ni se atrasa ni se adelanta, es exacto, al menos el mío...
Por contra diré que el calendario no vino en español, lo que me sorprendió, pero si en 4 idiomas , pero no es problema para mi y tampoco vino con tarjeta de garantía cumplimentada ni libro de instrucciones, el gris grueso, solo el azul. Me puse en contacto con el vendedor y en cuestión de minutos respondió y me solucionó el problema, lo que agradecí: dice mucho y bueno del vendedor y como no, respaldado por Amazon.
