Was really looking forward to this watch. Excellent detail and finish-the green looks great under sunlight. However, I couldn’t get the strap to close on my 8” wrist and despite a decent size case (39.5 mm), the dial appears rather small. It was swallowed up on my wrist and looked like a boy’s watch. Had it fit my wrist visually I probably would’ve just bought a new band but it just wouldn’t work for me. Too bad because it’s a nice watch. Oh, I also didn’t particularly care for the cyclops. Had I kept the watch I think I would’ve removed it. I’d give it a solid four stars for finish, quality and value…it just didn’t work for me.

Recently purchased Seiko Alpinist SPB121 watch. Strap that came with watch is stylish but stiff. I replaced with silicone "Seiko" band and buckle. Watch is bulky and heavy on wrist. It is however very stylish. Not impressed with cyclops, feel it's unnecessary, makes reading date at slightly wrong angle blurry. Over dial size, if bigger, would make watch more visually pleasing. Functionality of watch is good. I would recommend pursing other options. At around $600-$700 this watch is disappointing.

The Seiko SPB121 is a beautiful timepiece designed to evoke a romance with the outdoor world with its verdant dial and compass bezel. It is sophisticated without being precious, and remains consistent with the tool-watch ethos. Sapphire crystal will certainly appeal to those desire a scratch-resistant piece, and the 70-hour power-reserve admirably kicks the game up a notch. The deployant buckle is secure, and well enough made, though at some point it might make sense to pair this watch with a band that suits your lifestyle and path. Couldn't be more pleased. It does pay to search around for a fair-price. In the $500-800+/- makes sense. Above that starts to feel opportunistic and gouging. This piece was fortunately well within its price point.

This automatic watch is very accurate, easily readable (the date magnifier window is outstanding), and attractive. I love the leather bracelet with the unique opening clasp. The lume on the hands is the best that I have seen. Overall, I prefer it to a Rolex.
