Our take on the Seiko 5 Sports Automatic GMT Watch

The Seiko 5 Sports Automatic GMT is a mechanical sports watch with a fourth hand that tracks a second time zone, powered by Seiko's in-house automatic movement with a 42.5mm case. It stands out for offering a true GMT complication at a price well below Swiss GMT automatics. The best new price is $396 at Island Watch as of November 3, 2026, and only one store currently lists it new, so there is little price competition.

Questions and answers

Is the Seiko 5 Sports GMT worth it?
Yes, if you want a mechanical GMT watch under $400. The in-house automatic movement and second time zone are rare at this price. At $396 at Island Watch as of November 3, 2026, it is close to the low end of its recent range.
How does it compare with the standard Seiko 5 Sports?
The GMT adds a fourth hand and a 24-hour bezel for tracking a second time zone. The case is slightly larger and the price is higher than the plain three-hand Seiko 5 Sports.
What is the power reserve and accuracy?
The automatic movement runs about 41 hours on a full wind. Seiko rates it within roughly -35 to +45 seconds a day, typical for an entry-level mechanical watch.
Is the 42.5mm case too big?
It suits wrists about 6.5 inches and up. Under that, the 42.5mm case and thick lugs can overhang the wrist.
Is it water resistant enough for swimming?
It is rated for 100m, which covers swimming and snorkeling. Do not press the crown or use it for diving.
When is it cheapest?
Only one store lists it new at $396 as of November 3, 2026, so there is little room to shop around. Watch for seasonal sales at that store rather than expecting a broad price war.
Where is the Seiko 5 Sports Automatic GMT Watch cheapest?
At Island Watch, for $396.00, as of our latest check.
What do buyers say about the Seiko 5 Sports Automatic GMT Watch?
Rated 4.6 out of 5 from 72 ratings.
