“I was very pleased when I received this watch.
I set it accurately upon arrival.
After about 1 week, it has lost approximately 1.5 minutes.
Is this typical?
I have worn it continually.
Should I return it for a replacement?”
“Second SKX that I bought from LIW that had a pretty badly misaligned bezel. I know Seiko is notorious for their QC, but it would be nice to get one that's close to being aligned.”
“Nice watch.
It keeps time very close to that of my cellphone carrier.
Product delivered very quickly.
My only concern is that the 2nd language on the “Day” dial is Arabic?
WTH?”
“Been researching the SKX009 (Japan) model for some time and pulled the trigger. Looked on Amazon and the selection just seemed off and potentially not trustworthy. Ordered my first watch here and very impressed. Everything came in perfect condition and couldn’t be happier. Also, love this watch! Can’t take it off.”
“Came brand-new with all the original paperwork in the original Seiko-branded box. If you're looking for a 100%, doubt-free, certifiably authentic J-model SKX in the US, don't go gray market. This is the place to buy one.
One of only two watches of mine that get unsolicited compliments from non-watch people. This has become my go-to work watch. The Hardlex crystal has so far held up much better than expected. Lack of sapphire was a sticking point for me, but it seems that was unwarranted.
The blue, even on the bezel, is much darker than I expected, and the blue in the dial is only seen in direct sunlight. Much more subtle than it seems in many pictures. All the better; it wears with any color, something I had reservations about. Goes as well with jeans as with slacks.
Longislandwatch was a pleasure to deal with, will definitely be back.”
