Indestructible !

Bought 5 years ago, this Seiko prospex solar equipped with the V176 caliber is a solid adventurer that has cut down trees, gone down rivers, swam in fresh water, salt water and dug the garden (not alone, it is not haunted yet!) with its owner! Screw-down crown, 20 bars of water resistance, a real tough watch, which, apparently, resists all the mistreatment inflicted on it. The glass has eaten a little but overall, the piece remains clean after 5 years of use. The watch has never stopped, although stored in a box in a dimly lit room. Apparently, the battery charges for 6 months and I confirm. The brand recommends replacing the battery (+ servicing) after 10 years. I have no doubt that it will hold up until then without fail. On a nato or on a rubber, the watch wears well if the adjustment is done correctly. As is often the case, the original Seiko leather is pretty rubbish, but in any case, I don't think it's the material that suits him best!
