Probably The Best Value For Money New Seiko I’ve EVER Bought! No Wonder It’s Only Available In Japan
In this video I unbox and review the Seiko SBTR027 which I imported from Japan and the total cost including taxes was less than £200. This watch contains the Seiko mecha-quartz snap back chronograph and has a running second hand! If you want to see the other colours....google SBTR001, SBTR003, SBTR005 SBTR007, etc etc....
Here is a link which takes you to the watch featured in this video. This is the seller I recommend as I have now bought 4 watches from them all seamless transactions. This is not an affiliate link.
