Had the chance to try on a couple of Seiko Prospex today at a B&M including a 1.5k Willard and I’m seriously underwhelmed by the feel and quality of their bracelets and clasps.
They feel thin, flimsy and rattle. I know it’s a big operation and they offer their products at competitive prices but this detracts from the general quality of their watches.
On the other hand I can now better understand the business model of places like Strapcode that offer excellent milled aftermarket bands and clasps that bring your Seiko to the level it deserves.
