My first Seiko SPB287J1 is a King Seiko

I have had this watch for almost a year and I can tell you that I am still under its spell. The finishes are truly exemplary. The case is contained which gives it that vintage side that I love so much. The horns are perfectly beveled with an alternation of brushed and mirror polished. The indexes are splendid with a zaratsu finish which gives them a rainbow shine depending on the light. The dauphine hands give the impression of having been cut like a Japanese katana. The bracelet pays homage to the original model. It greatly reflects the light and is very comfortable if you take the time to have it adjusted properly (no fine adjustment with the butterfly clasp). In the end, it almost feels like you have a Grande Seiko on your wrist. What it lacks is certainly the caliber to achieve this level of finish. For my part, my caliber is very well adjusted. The daily drift is much more precise than that mentioned by Seiko. The red model remains the most interesting for me. I recommend it for people who already have a large watch collection. Its acquisition remains complicated. When I bought it, it was only available in official Seiko stores.
