SEIKOHybrid Dive Watch for Men - Prospex - Solar, with Black Dial, Lightweight Case, and Stopwatch Function, 200m Water-Resistant

I am happy to finally have the legendary Seiko Arnie in my collection! The watch is massive (but lightweight), very good assembly and great vintage style (from the 80s)I would say that the size of this model is universal - it fits perfectly both small and large wrists. My wrist is 7.5 inches and it looks great. The rubber strap is extremely comfortable, soft, pleasant to the touch. The solar powered mechanism is very good - seconds hit the indices accurately, without discrepancy. There is a function of falling asleep by staying in the dark for a while - the display goes out and the hands are arranged at 12 o’clock, but continues to keep accurate time. As soon as it detects light, the display automatically turns on and the hands stand at the exact time. Bezel fits perfectly at 12 o'clock. Very fast and secure delivery and very well packed! Thank you!

Everything was perfect! Got a smokin deal during spring sale on Amazon. Love the watch but disappointed it was manufactured in China.

I loved this watch when it arrived and hated returning it, but on the third day I had it, I was driving on a sunny day when it suddenly stopped functioning. Being a solar powered watch and having recently checked the battery, I knew it wasn’t a low power issue. It didn’t come back on even after some time, so finally I did a factory reset. Everything seemed fine, but from then on, as soon as any sunlight hit the dial, the watch would immediately turn off and wouldn’t come back on until it was out of the sun. But when it came back on it would be a completely reset and the hands were no longer calibratedI read online that this is common for this model made in and after 2023 and that Seiko is not offering a repair currently.Not usually a negative review person, but this watch gets a ton of praise (rightfully so if it works!) and I never saw this until it happened to me. When I searched the issue, I found it’s extremely common in the latest model years

I don't typically take the time to write a review on a product, but this is an exception. Thank you Seiko, for updating and reintroducing a timeless classic! In 1983 I received the H558 for graduation, and literally wore it everyday for close to 20 years. I went through 3 rubber wrist bands and several batteries during this time. I never really got on the "Arnie" bandwagon, because I already owned the watch before I saw it in the movies. I remember seeing it and thought, "hey, he's got MY watch!" I remember the watch being pretty expensive, up around the $500 mark. Which back then, was quite a bit of money, especially for a high school kid.I don't wear a watch as a fashion statement. To me a watch is an indispensable tool that I relied on and wore every day and night, no matter what I was doing. Rock climbing, diving, snorkeling, cave exploring, boating, biking, surveying, etc. For it's 3rd or 4th battery change (I can't remember), I sent it to Seiko to have them go through it, replace the seals and install a new battery sometime in the late 90's. I'm glad I did, because apparently they stopped making that model in 2000. Once that battery died, I retired the watch because I was tired of dealing with the battery change every 3-4 years. I opted for their dive watch with the automatic jeweled movement. I was very happy with that model for many years, but it began losing quite a bit of time, like 2-3 minutes a day. I missed the accuracy of my old watch, but didn't want to have to deal with the batteries.I discovered that Seiko brought out a new watch last year, with the same look, feel and operation as my old one... I bought it immediately! Knowing my history with the old watch, here is my take on the new one: I absolutely could not be more pleased with it. Size wise, the new watch is a small amount larger diameter than the old one. The screw down push buttons and crown are a little more obtrusive than the old one, which makes it look even bigger. However, they are very user friendly and function well. I like the screw locks on the buttons, because it protects them from being accidently pushed and changing the mode the watch is in. The LCD screen works just as well as the old one, but the new watch has a much brighter LED light in it. The functions are the same as the original, with multiple time settings, day/date, stopwatch and alarm. The new silicon band is much more comfortable and forgiving over the old band material. My wrists are kind of small, but the new watch, being even larger than the old one, wears well and is very comfortable. I think the thing that I am most excited about is the fact that it is solar powered. In the pictures (old watch on the left), you can kind of see the face of the new one being a little off black, or brownish, so that is apparently the solar panel. I find that it charges quickly, even under office lights, and has a readout that tells you the battery level. So if it is running low, go outside and do something! It has the accuracy of a fine quartz movement, without ever having to change the battery, ever again.In closing, there are many brand names with flashier watches, and more expensive automatic jeweled, solar or kinetic movements, but I consider this to be a durable "working" tool with a long heritage. Seiko is the only brand watch that I will buy, and only time will tell if this one can withstand the daily abuse I plan to put it through. But if it is anywhere near the quality of the old one, I have confidence it will last me a lifetime. Thank you Seiko!

Ok let's begin with "GET TO DA CHOPPA" this watch is the Seiko Arnie reissue with updates engine and solar and its epic. It's not only one of his favorite watches it's been in 4 of his movies. The Seiko H558-5000 is most famous for being worn by Arnold Schwarzenegger in several of his 1980s movies, including Commando (1985), Raw Deal (1986), Predator (1987) and The Running Man (1987). Therefor it is often referred to as the Seiko Arnie Diver. I pulled the "TRIGGER" on one of the most ICONIC action movie watches of all time. While this is an updated reissue with new internals the look and feel is exactly the same and I love everything about it... also it fits well for its size. A larger face and shroud (basically a seiko tuna) its lugs hang downward and it very comfortable for all day wear in the office or our in the field. Great LUME all night glow and an internal light on the digital panel. So very effective in all light conditions. Plus ISO rated up to 200m 660 feet of pressure depth so it's an REAL DIVER. Lastly since it's so iconic there are literally hundreds of bands, bracelets and straps as well as steel and polished shrouds or plastic and colorful cerakote guards. YEAH YOU CAN MOD THIS WATCH. I wont because I wanna leave it's a ARNOLDS watch while I hunt PREDATORS in the jungle but you can have it your way and go absolutely nuts with it if you wish. Great 80s nostalgia with current internal tech best of both worlds if you just want a daily wear workhorse too!
