What people say

Owners + reviewers, side by side

Synthesized for each watch independently from owner discussions, enthusiast forums, written reviews, and video reviewers.

Grand Seiko SLGA001

The Grand Seiko SLGA001 is praised for its impressive technical achievements, including a new, slimmer Spring Drive movement with a five-day power reserve and exceptional accuracy of ±0.5 seconds per day. Reviewers note the 47mm titanium case, despite its substantial dimensions, wears more comfortably due to its titanium construction, short lugs, and virtually scratch-proof finish. The watch features a 600-meter water resistance and is limited to 700 pieces, priced at $11,100. On balance, reviewers consider the Grand Seiko SLGA001 a highly capable dive watch, with its technological advancements in the Spring Drive movement being a key highlight.

From video reviewers

The watch's Spring Drive movement, specifically the Cal.9RA5, offers a 120-hour power reserve. A notable trade-off is the watch's relatively large size, with a case diameter of 46.9mm and thickness of 16.0mm, which may not suit those with smaller wrists. The high price point may be a trade-off for some buyers.

Yema Diver

One owner reported a water ingress issue on their Yema Diver the first time it got wet in a lake, despite rinsing and inspecting the watch and bezel. Another owner notes this manual wind Yema Diver has a cool patina but is unlikely to be waterproof or gain value. Overall, owners view the Yema Diver as a fun second watch rather than an investment.

From video reviewers

The Swiss Sellita movement is a notable feature. Reviewers did not reach a consensus on any weaknesses.
