Amazon.com Product Description
Dress to impress with Seiko's Kinetic Coutura watch. This chic, masculine timepiece features a stainless steel case, stainless steel bezel with subtle gear detailing, and a stainless steel link bracelet that secures to the wrist with a fold-over pushbutton clasp. A strong sapphire crystal protects the black watch dial, which features stainless steel hour indexes, subtle minute indexes, and green-and-silver-tone hands. A stylish month sub-dial rests at six o'clock, an eye-catching date calendar sits below 12 o'clock, and another sub-dial between three and four o'clock marks the 24-hour clock. This impressive timepiece is powered by kinetic movement, and is water resistant to 330 feet.
Customer Reviews
An Instant Classic
As the other reviewers have noted, this is a quality timepiece, and indeed, the pictures here don't do it justice. It's a very attractive (but not ostentatious) watch, and although it is big, it doesn't look like you're trying to show off or compensate for feelings of inadequacy. It's built to last, with plenty of 'gee-whiz' value (kinetic movement, perpetual calendar, automatic power-down and time memory)even if it doesn't have lots of functions (e.g. tachymeter) that most of us never use anyway. You will not regret buying this watch. It still makes me smile to put it on my wrist in the morning.
Disappointing aesthetics compared to the Arctura #SNP009
I own an Arctura SNP# 009 and have worn it everyday (jogging, work, outings) for over a year; the piece still works perfectly confirming the technology and quality. I enjoy that model so much that recently I decided to buy a similar model in the series- hence the Coutura SNP #007. I received it today and all I can say is, shame on me for not conducting due diligence. Just a cursory look at the web pictures, the piece looked very attractive. However, out of box, the overall visual impact was disappointing. I assumed both watches will look identical except for the dark inset in the SNP007- far from it. If the concept of classic, "understated elegance" appeals to you, the benchmark, nolo contendere, is the SNP #009. I only wish the SNP#009 goes on sale again at Amazon for 399$. As for the SNP#007, as much as I hate dislike the practice, I will be "returning" it.
What out if you order from AMazon
While the watch is great, look, feel, etc. The problem is Amazon.com itself. Be warned, next day could mean...NEXT week! After too many emails, calls, and false promises (actually lies from Amazon...we have it, it's shipping today). It arrived. Of course, you could spend a lot more. In the military exchange, it's over $475.00. Other SNP's are up to $600!
Now...is it a Seiko??? comes in a box made in China. Box doesn't look like Seiko's box... and why is this so much less that from "authorized Seiko dealers" is the next question.
Good thing this is a temporary replacement for a Breitling.
Want a cheap could be Seiko watch, this is a good bet...wonder when will it break???
