Incoming Seiko Jubilation!

The Jubilee has seen a resurgence in Rolex Sports watches with the Pepsi GMT.

Seiko make their own Jubilee and in terms of looks it is very close to Rolex.

The Seiko Jubilee is a very practical no-nonsense bracelet. Links can be added and removed relatively easily with a pin vice tool (cost $4).

The Seiko Jubilee reminds me of a vintage Rolex Jubilee bracelet with the characteristic rattle from the links on the clasp. I don't know why but I like the rattle, its as if the Jubilee is saying "Hi, I'm here for you!"

The Seiko package is extraordinary value for the price (US$190) on Amazon.

The SKX007 K is a very loyal trusty timekeeper. It doesn't have the bling of a Pepsi but it is a workhorse tool watch that yields very satisfying and relaxed daily wear.

The bezel/dial/rehaut all line up right and the lume is out of this world, and arguably out shines the Rolex.

The 4 O'Clock winding crown with crown guards shows thought has gone into ensuring a more comfortable fit on the wrist and protection to the crown from knocks.

Overall as a wrist experience I'd rate this a 9/10.
