detailedReviews: detailedReviews 1: content: When Seiko announced the release of the GMT Seiko 5 I felt like I had to have one. I went straight away to my dealer and told him to put an order in. Putting the GMT feature on the 4R/NH series movements was enough to get me as a modder excited. I also love how this made a good in house GMT available to the masses. Seiko really hit a goldmine with this one.
My dealer ended up getting all 3 in and choosing between them was almost like trying to pick your first pokemon. I ended up choosing the black SSK001. I did buy the blue one a few weeks later.
The bracelet on this watch is phenomenal. It really is the most comfortable style of bracelet I have ever worn on a Seiko right out of the factory. It's got solid end links which gives it a little heft and it really feels in the hand like a watch of quality.
Seiko made another interesting choice with these watches with the bezel insert. It is a polished aluminum with a hardlex coating put over it. It plays a trick with the eyes where in lower lighting it appears black and grey but in the light the grey almost takes on a chrome like mirror finish. It's really unique and cool and one of my favorite things about this watch in particular. It does have a unidirectional non clicking friction bezel but it is on there sufficiently tight and won't be going anywhere unless you move it. Overall for the $$$ it's a straight up banger. It didn't come off my wrist for almost a month and I'm still in my honeymoon phase with this watch.

detailedReviews 2: content: Recently decided to switch from my smart watch, back to traditional watches. In a strange twist, I was given the option to select this as a work anniversary gift. I can't believe how perfect the timing was (no pun intended). Had to go to a local jewelry store to have some links removed, but since then, haven't touched anything! The only reason I have had to reset anything is in preparation for Daylight Savings Time tomorrow morning. Time accuracy is amazing! Only slight issue is that the friction bezel does get moved, slightly, from regular wear, but it takes seconds to move that back. Really can't believe the quality versus price point here!

detailedReviews 3: content: I've long been a fan of Marc's videos and when I saw he had the Seiko 5 GMT in stock, I decided it was time to finally put my money where my mouth was and purchase from him. Communication was great and the watch arrived a couple of days later. I even wrote Marc an email with a few questions about it and he personally answered within a few hours. This led to some nice back and forth chatting too. He is a class act and wonderful to do business with. I shall do it again. - Alec Jarnagin.

detailedReviews 5: content: The GMT complication is my favorite complication on a watch. This watch may not be a true "Traveler GMT" but for the money you get a lot of watch. I wear this watch every day and just love it. I think it is a really nice looking watch and wears great.

detailedReviews 10: content: I was surprised by the refined looks of the piece. The jubilee bracelet and the flashy bezel insert really give the piece a sense of luxury.
The movement is revolutionary, along with the new miyota true GMT movement. While many micros will undoubtably use this movement for affordable GMT's, this is the original and Seiko nonetheless. The bezel, and jubilee bracelet gave it a nice elevated & elegance look. Overall enjoying the piece and would love to hear other owners experiences with it.
