- Is the Seiko Prospex a good first automatic watch?
- Yes. It is a common entry point into mechanical dive watches, with a robust case and clear dial. Expect to reset the time now and then, since it is not quartz-accurate.
- How long does the power reserve last?
- About 41 hours when fully wound. If you leave it off for a weekend it will likely stop, so wind it or wear it regularly.
- Can I swim with it?
- Prospex dive models are built for swimming and snorkeling when the crown is screwed down. Check the specific reference's water-resistance rating before diving.
- Does it have a sapphire crystal?
- Not on every reference; some use Hardlex. Confirm the crystal on the exact model you are considering if scratch resistance matters to you.
- How does it compare with Swiss dive watches?
- It offers an in-house automatic movement and dive-watch specs for much less than Swiss rivals. The trade-off is finishing and bracelet quality rather than capability.
- Can I change the strap?
- Yes. The lugs take standard straps, and many owners swap to rubber or leather for a lighter feel.
