Seiko Presage Cocktail - References, Prices and Owners' Reviews

This watch has a mirror-polished steel case. This timepiece is characterized by its superb black sunray dial. The power reserve adds a touch of complexity. The date display is relatively original. The hands respond to the indexes. The oscillating weight of the movement, gold-colored, adds an additional touch of elegance. The crown is nicely logoed. This model, however, suffers from two negative points. First of all, it is necessary to point out the inevitable hesalite glass. However, it is above all the thickness of the case that will pose a problem for some, especially for a dress watch.

I wanted to buy an affordable Japanese automatic watch. Who better than Seiko to satisfy my desires. So, I visited their site and there, it was love at first sight, the second my eyes crossed the photo of the Seiko Presage Cocktail and its green dial, its case with a sober but elegant design, its brown leather strap and its golden second hand which adds an interesting contrast to the whole. I've been wearing it for more than two years and I'm still as captivated by the beauty of the dial that makes you look down at your wrist all the time. Besides, among the watches I own, the Presage is the one that has been complimented the most, both by my entourage and by complete strangers.

I already found the cocktail series really beautiful with its different dials with effects, each one cooler than the other, but I had never taken the plunge, finding the watches a bit small for me. But this Purple Sunset literally made me succumb! The gradients and reflections they offer are sumptuous, just like the slightly pink hands and indexes, as soon as the light hits this dial, it's a feast for the eyes! I don't regret my choice at all for the moment, to see how it behaves over time :)
