First off - this model # DOES NOT have a black face as listed, both the bezel and face are a shade of very dark blue.
Wearability: HEAVY.Most sites list it at 170+ grams [~6 ounces].Takesa little getting used to but after a day or 2 it felt very natural.Thickness also substantial.If you're an everyday long sleeve dress shirt wearer, this watch may be a bit tall for the cuff.Otherwise, the profile is strong and has a nice look on the wrist, rugged and casual.Case diam: 42mm, 50mm including the crown.
Band: Stainless and a nice fit, links wrap well without feeling awkward.I have a large wrist for a man and removed 2 full links [done at a jeweler , <20 bucks].Fits up to an 8" wrist.Band has an overlapping lock clasp with safety buttons, virtually impossible to come off accidentally.The only band I have enjoyed more is on my Omega Seamaster; I think the band is just as substantial as the Rolex Submariner.
Functions: Day/date adjusted by the 2 position right side crown.Left crown is actually a bi-directional dial that allows you to rotate an inner bezel to set it as an static directional compass.If you know how to find NORTH by the sun using a watch, it's a nice little feature for hiking.It also has the standard dive time outer rotating bezel.
Diving:The instruction manual states this watch should not be worn when using helium for diving.If you want a true diving watch, stick with the high end brands with a helium release crown.But for sailing, boating, swimming, etc, this is a great option.
Quality: I am not one to speak on quartz v. automatic [this one is an auto], but the quality is substantial at a fairly low price point.The face finish is tight, dial is easy to read [luminescent hands, numbers, and hashes, easy to see in the dark].Overall it looks like a watch closer to 500 than 200 bucks.The watch comes with a 1 yr international and 3 yr U.S. warranty.Seiko stands behind its work.
I rated this watch 5 stars because for 200 bucks, I don't think there is a better everyday lower end casual metal band watch out there.I bought this watch as my "beater" casual watch and couldn't be more satisfied.
I actually like it so much that I have taken as much care not to damage it as my other watches that are much more valuable.
This model also comes in black, white, and the blue face, although I don't know if Amazon sells all 3.If you want the black face, you'll know it because the it has yellow hands...
