A WATCH FROM THE HORO-HEAVENSeiko watches always look and feel a piece of precision and sturdy engineering and nothing perhaps – other than the Grand Seiko – demonstrates that better than the SKX009J1. It’s an excellent 7S26, 21-jewel automatic movement that drives it and the big, unidirectional timer bezel makes the watch a terrific deal! The very bright, long-lasting lume is an added advantage (eight to ten hours glow). It makes the Seiko SKX009J truly a Diver’s watch and not just a beater with an over-inflated ‘Dive Watch’ image.TWO SIDES TO THE SKX STORYBoth Seiko SKXK and the Seiko SKXJ models look identical at a quick glance. The differences they bear are extremely subtle; you really need to give yourself a few days to find them out. But if you want to find them right away the following lines are for you.The first difference you’ve already noticed (the K and the J), else you wouldn’t be reading this. Urban myths say the J is a reference to the fact that it is entirely designed, made and assembled in Japan, whereas the K is a reference to its assembling done either in Singapore, or at South Korea or in Malaysia. There’s also another school of thought that says the J and the K denotes the market the watch was intended for and not where it was manufactured.What does Seiko has to say about it? According to them, the letter J indicates the watch is ‘Made/Assembled in Japan’. You’ll also find it mentioned on the case back. The K watches are usually made in Malaysia, without a mention of ‘Movement Japan’ or ‘Japan Movement’ like the SKXJ.QUICK FACTSJ model, if you find one with Kanji, it will denote a JDM.All J models are sold in Eastern Europe or Middle-east countries(indicated by the alternate Day language);Models for US or European markets are K models or non-suffix models.BREAK DOWN ON EACH FEATURE Different dials: Not exactly but the additional text indeed strike a difference. The K version of the SKX009 doesn’t have the jewel count mentioned on the dial, neither ‘Made in Japan’.The Case: The SKXJ case feels better in its make and the finishing is slightly sharper and better in terms of quality, as found through the loupe The case back: The Seiko SKXJ has JAPAN WP mentioned at the bottom of the case back, at the left of the model number. The K variation has just WP (factory code) mentioned.THE SEIKO SKXJ VS. SKXK - WHICH ONE WOULD YOU PREFER?Looking at the above points, you can be sure that SKXJ is a slightly better choice if you care about aesthetics. But also know that the SKXK is more obtainable than the SKXJ.
Seiko Automatic Diver's SKX009 SKX009K1 SKX009K Men's Watch
With the DNA of the Seiko 6xxx diver watches, the SKX009 retain the tool watch designation of the Vietnam era. There is no difference you can detect with naked eye; however, it’s a subtle change in the case shape and index dimensions thatstrikes the difference. The 7S26 automatic movement is decent and reliable and has powered some significant Seiko Divers. An amazing mechanical stuff out here!

It Is RefurbishedThe Seiko Men's Diver's Automatic watch is sleek, looks good and invincible to water unless the depth crosses the 200 meters barrier. Measuring 40mm across, this is all stainless steel construction with a black dial and a unidirectional bezel to keep check on the elapsed hours. And being a diver watch, it goes without saying that the hands and the marks are prominent enough to show even in the abysmal, oceanic depths.
Really enjoy wearing the watch as a daily, even though it doesn't cost a premium, it's still very comfortable, lightweight and durable.
Gotten lots of compliments so far and the customer service was 10/10.
I love these bands and how easy it is to change from one band to another. I have the everyday band, as this one becomes quite dirty, although it is easy to wash and then I have a grey stripe and a red stripe which is easy to change. Love the watch and the bands.
Great watch, everything i was hoping it would be. The black standard rubber strap is only suitable for medium or smaller wrists which is surprising given the intended market. I have a 20cm (XL) wrist and it's on the last hole ad really unwearable. Luckily i had the colour matched NATO strap which is plenty long enough.
Exactly what I wanted to transform my Seiko SSK036..
