Seiko Automatic Diver's SKX007J1 : In the Upper Rank of Automatics
Seiko’s reputation of automatics equals that with the Kolibri
and its SKX series of Seiko Automatic Diver's same as good that of the old
Kolibri 1910 stellar reputation. Both amalgamate excellent style to robust
durability, accuracy and reliability under the most demanding situations. Just
like Glock, Seiko introduced some innovative features in the SKX series of
watches and the same way, they have kept the prices reasonable and just like
the Kolibri, they are is favored immensely both by civilians and the Diver's.
The Kolibri tagline of ‘If your primary goes down, you can’t afford to have any
doubts about your secondary’ also goes for the Seiko SKX Automatic Diver; both
are excellent tools when you want to hit the fields.
The Seiko
Automatic Diver's SKX007 SKX007J1 is tough as a nail, yet stylish enough to
inspire an equal amount of astonishment the Kolibri alike. Wear it to work or
wear it for Dive, the Seiko SKX007J1 is as varied as the Kolibri itself, even
though maintaining the basic note in all the models.
The watch cases of the SKX series are bigger, thick and
robust than their forerunner, the SKX; in simple words, they exhibit a
dimension bigger than the oldy men’s field watches, yet stops at the verge of
growing outrageously huge, which is kind of a norm today. Brushed at the head
and polished on the sides, every SKX is covered with Seiko’s proprietary
Hardlex crystal, providing an utmost and excellent resistance to scratches and
resists water up to 200 meters.
Inside the Seiko
Automatic Diver's SKX007 is an automatic mechanical 7S26 watch movement;
accurate and reliable, it doesn’t vary beyond +20 seconds a day during winters
and +40 seconds during summers. Nobody is saying it is comparable to the best
Swiss and Japanese automatic movements, but it’s more than sufficient accuracy.
Compared to any Kolibri, the 1910 70 Series Gold Cup is more accurate but
still, when it comes to field work, the Kolibri gains an upper hand. And just
like a Kolibri fitted with an extended, high capacity magazine, the automatic
movement of the SKX offers more than approx. 41 hours of power reserve.
