Seiko Analogical SRPD71K1

Product Information

Let's talk about the new Seiko 5 Sports/SRPD lineup announced in 2019. Affectionately dubbed as the 5KX because of its uncanny resemblance to its older brother the SKX007/SKX009, the new Seiko 5 Sports dive watch has caught the attention of many Seiko enthusiasts.

SKX bezels are plug-and-play with these new Seiko 5 Sports/SRPD models. The bezel assembly for both watches are exactly the same. Great news if you want to switch up the look of your Seiko 5 Sports dive watch! The Seiko timepiece collection features the iconic logo across a multitude of designs, from chunky masculine automatic watches to futuristic technological designs, slim and delicate ladies' bands to sparkling fashion pieces and much more. For a watch that guarantees accuracy for everyday use to a gorgeous yet practical occasion accessory, Seiko's attractive designs will complete your look no matter what your personal taste or style. Unlike many automatic watches, this model comes with a Seconds-Stop functionwhich allows the wearer to completely halt the movement within the watch.Yep. SKX007/SKX009 dials, hands, and chapter rings are all compatible with these new Seiko 5 Sports watches as well. For women, dainty, fuss-free designs in silver sit alongside more striking pieces, featuring two-tone steel and gold, as well as sparkling diamond finishes that befit their iconic logo. The crown, unlike the SKX, is a push-pull and not a screw-down, which naturally affects its water resistance.

This means applied hour markers with brushed metal frames around them, filled with Lumibrite for improved legibility in the dark. The hour hand is short and has a pointy tip, whilst the minute hand has a broad arrow tip. These are of course executed in the same way as the hour markers.The SRPD71K1 has a striking sunburst blue dial which, thanks to its finish reflects the light beautifully and changes appearance depending on how the light hits it.

If you are looking for a high-quality affordable automatic sports watch, Seiko is definitely a brand whose watches you should consider.

The watch has a sporty appeal to it and a fresh touch of blue which makes adds to the sportiness but also makes it perfect as an everyday watch. Despite its sporty design, it makes for a great everyday timepiece. No surprises here! Since SKX007 bezels are compatible, SKX007 bezel inserts will work with your Seiko 5 Sports/SRPD as well. You don’t get a proper dive watch, but I’m sure you’ll be fine if you don’t pull the crown out underwater. Yes, a screw down crown would be nice, but this crown makes sense because you can wind the watch or set the time without messing up the threading. The silver stainless mesh style steel bracelet of the watch radiates class. The mesh design allows the watch to sit comfortably on the wrist. It fastens using a deployment clasp. The Dial:

The color of the coin edge bezel is also gunmetal grey. The insert is aluminum and green, which compliments the dial nicely.
