Chic without being too pricey
As I was shopping for a new watch, I had a certain number of criteria in mind.
1. It must be affordable
2. It must be from a recognized brand (for quality purposes)
3. It must be stylish without being too fad-ish
4. It must be multi-purpose and lend itself to almost all
styles of dress, be it casual or formal.

Chic without being too pricey, April 11, 2006

I found all of this in this little Seiko watch. At first, I was setting my sights on a no-battery type of design, but after reading about both kinetic and solar watches...and finding out that both do require replacement of either a lithium ion battery or capacitor, neither of which were guaranteed to last longer than a regular battery operated watch...I decided to stick with the regular quartz.
The watch itself looks better than its picture. The dial is listed as white on the website, but it's actually a silver tone...similar to what you see on Rolex brands (which it's supposed to mimic). The gold has a nice shine to it, with particular sparkle coming from the marked hours and the pie-cut bezel around the watch face. There is luminous material on the watch hands and hour markers, but a very minimal amount. My guess is that they didn't want to detract from the shiny finish, but you do lose some ability to see the watch face at night. There's enough to see the watch hands...just barely...but the hours are really hard to make out in the dark. Oh well, if checking the time at night is a real issue then I suggest looking at some Timex Indiglos. ***REVISION*** While it is hard to see the luminous hands and markers at first, they do get brighter once your eyes adjust to the dark. I found myself waking up early this morning and could clearly see all the marked hours and hands of my watch face with no problems.
This watch also comes with a day and date calendar. Some have said it's hard to work, but I actually found it to be really easy. The instructions are very easy to follow and I had the calendar and time set up in about 2 minutes.
This watch is surprisingly lightweight and very comfortable to wear. The catch opens without breaking any nails off and the band is very roomy. I have a medium to large sized wrist and wear my watch in a slightly loose "bracelet" style, but I still had to get a couple of links taken out.
My verdict: a good watch at a good price. It goes with everything in my closet and is from a company that's known for excellence and durablility. Five Stars!
P.S. When I wrote this view (a year or two back), it was sold by Amazon and was only 65 dollars with free shipping. So don't think I'm crazy for citing it as "affordable".

Perfect watch for everyday, March 2, 2005
Extremely reliable, easy to read, looks like the Rolex style, only it is very lightweight. Good for everyday use because you can wear either gold or silver jewelry with this watch. I would have given it 5 stars if it were one of those models which does not need a battery.
5/29/07 - This is an update. I give it 5 stars now. I got one of those models that does not need a battery and it is heavy and not sleek like this Seiko women's watch. It is still my all-time favorite watch and will never be without one.

I love my Seiko, November 16, 2005
This is a great watch. I like that you can wear both silver and gold with it. I like the fact that it's water proof but I still take it off to go in the shower or in the pool. It often gets mistaken for a Rolex!

a wonderful watch, June 7, 2007
This is a really good looking watch. I have a very small wrist, and I was concerned about its being too large and manly looking, but it's perfect. I did have to have seven links removed for it to fit as I prefer, but that's to be expected. The watch is lightweight, very comfortable, and looks appropriate with both casual and more dressy outfits. I think it's a great buy for the money.

Just what I was looking for., July 15, 2007
Was very glad to get this watch. It's attractive and isn't "too busy" with all sorts of useless functions. I love the day of the week and date feature. The minute hand is a plus, too. My only fault with it, is that it's a bit hard to snap the bands clasp in place. Finally, I figured out that I just had to make sure I took more time aligning the two snap over metal ends, and all is well. Highly recommend this watch as a step above sport watches, but not over laden with a lot of features one might never use.The stainless steel body will assure that it stays attractive, too. I saved even more money than current price of $138.00, here on Amazon.

Attractive, highly accurate, and reasonably priced, June 28, 2007
Seiko makes outstanding watches for reasonable prices. This ladies watch is very attractive and quite reasonably priced. It even looks like a Rolex. But it's much more accurate than most Rolex watches which are far more expensive. Though finely built, and very expensive, most Rolex watches have mechanical movements guaranteed to an accuracy of only 2 minutes (120 seconds) per month. This Seiko watch is also finely built and its quartz movement gives it an accuracy of 15 seconds per month or better -- 8 times more accurate than most Rolexes. Beauty, accuracy, and dependability at a reasonable price make this Seiko watch a winner.
