    Very nice deal. A sapphire crystal is a worthy upgrade, especially at this price.

    • nitens on 12/12/2022 - 10:55

      This is hardlex glass, not sapphire. So I'm not sure what your point is.

      • rosebank on 12/12/2022 - 10:58

        That's what I was going to say, unless he wants to replace the hardlex with aftermarket sapphire on a $200 Seiko 5

          That's precisely what I meant :-)

            @Orrelljet: Why? I personally don't care about crystal type (I personally like domed acrylic or sapphire (if it's actually domed, and not a slight curve), and the only watch I own that has a significant deep scratch is sapphire, ironically), so why spend roughtly 50% of the cost of a cheap watch on an upgrade that practicaly makes no difference?

              @rosebank: You personally don't care, does that mean I also shouldn't? Each to their own, I guess.

                @Orrelljet: Go for it mate, are you doing other mods? I've modded SKXs in the past; it's a fun hobby. Just the crystal doesn't make sense to me, but like you said, each to their own

              @rosebank: It's a curious obsession, that's for sure.

            • LanceVance on 12/12/2022 - 11:27

              @rosebank: It's not something I'd bother to do, but I can see the appeal as there is definitely much less reflection with a Sapphire lens.

              • rosebank on 12/12/2022 - 11:39

                @LanceVance: Yes, with AR coatings that rub or scratch off (yes I know there's sapphire with only inner coating which is basically useless imo). I got my Sinn 856 UTC serviced with crystal replacement and it cost well over a grand. Plexi/Hexalite/Acrylic (which can be polished), sapphire, mineral, harlex, whatever - all have pros and cons. That's why I don't care about crystal type.

                @LanceVance: With my current Tuna I will keep the hardlex until it gets so scratched that I am bothered. So far so good…. no scratches. After it gets scratched I will try to replace it with sapphire. It may never happen :) who knows.

            • cactusjuice on 12/12/2022 - 12:36

              @rosebank: I found hardlex to scratch easier than sapphire. Meaning, for a daily watch which might go through some wear, sapphire should hold up better.

              • rosebank on 12/12/2022 - 13:10

                @cactusjuice: A Sinn 856 and Seiko SKX were my beater watches for a couple years. The tegimented coating on the case and bracelet held up surprisingly well on the 856, but the sapphire crystal was busted and had to be replaced. The SKX is built like a tank and only has a few small scratches on the hardlex, which I don't care about, or could replace myself for cheap. I treat my watches pretty bad; I bang them around and don't really baby them, no matter the cost.

                So my experience is different to yours, and I've already expalined why I don't care about crystal type.

              @rosebank: Sapphire crystals cost about $20.

    It's big at 44.6mm.but a simple stylish design and Seiko quality….what's not to like?

    • WatchNerd on 12/12/2022 - 12:11

      What size is your wrist? Mine is just under 7 inches & my SKX007 fits perfect.

    • pennypacker on 12/12/2022 - 12:13

      Case is 40mm, lug to lug is 44.6mm fwiw

  • dynaflow on 12/12/2022 - 12:16

    Yes,but while this infatuation with big watches continues unabated I venture that 42mm.is a more generally accepted size irrespective of wrist measurement…..I maintain that 44.6mm.is a big watch.
    P.S.I stand corrected if the case is 40mm.according to @pennypacker

      It says 40mm in the description ⌚
