Here, he explores the latest watch releases, trends, and the significance of various vintage timepieces, captivating readers with his knowledge and enthusiasm. But over time, like most other things about this watch, not only did they grow on me, but I began to appreciate them more and more. That’s why I’ve bought this same exact watch THREE times. The Final Verdict

Chris Van Hoven is a multifaceted writer with a keen interest in technology, watches, and the world of automobiles. When he geeks out about technical details and specifications, his enthusiasm for these subjects is contagious. For the money, I seriously doubt there’s any dial that comes even close to that level. And there probably isn’t. Availability My story of owning this SNXS79 is a funny one. Like I said earlier, it was my own personal first mechanical watch I’ve owned for myself. Along with the Seagull 1963, it’s the most versatile watch I own. It doesn’t look out of place with any outfit. Between this model alone, there’s the SNXS79K1 and SNXS79J1. A Malaysian and Japanese version, respectively. The Malaysian version (K1) has a Spanish day wheel, and the J1 has a Kanji date wheel. The differences end there (aside from the price). SNK355 vs SNXS79KYou could also wear a 20mm NATO, Perlon, or Leather strap, as long as you still use 19mm spring bars. It’ll be a bit of a snug fit, but it’ll encompass the entire length of the spring bar, and nobody will ever notice that 1mm difference. SNXS79 Dimensions and Comfort This particular version is the 7S26C. It only differs from the 1st generation 7S26A in two details: the shape of the rotor has been changed (in the 7S26B), and the previous regulator has been replaced with the slightly more potent Etachron. On paper, it’s nothing special. Not exactly pretty, but not bad.

The first time I owned it, I liked it. But I didn’t love it. At the time, I didn’t have many other watches to compare it to.The Seiko SNXS79K is exceptionally light, weighing only 3.04 oz, or 86 grams. What are the advantages of a solar watch? But if the SNXS79 is your only watch, you might as well get the exact size strap to fit it, which is 19mm. That’s when I did some more digging, to find an automatic watch that was affordable, looked great and had solid build quality. In this review, we’ll be talking about the Seiko SNXS79K’s design, features, movement, price, and its pros and cons to help you decide if it deserves a place on your wrist.
