Seiko is known for their quality automatic movement watches which, in addition to looking and performing well, remain at an affordable price. The Seiko SNE331 is no exception, a bold timepiece with large, legible numbers and a solar powered movement designed for the long haul. It starts off with a 43mm stainless steel case, featuring a black ion finish, ideal for small to medium sized wrists. Contrasting against the case is an all-black dial with stencil-like numbers in tan, meant to complement the nylon strap and give a military-inspired look. All the numbers and indices have been coated with LumiBrite paint for low light legibility. Inside the watch is a caliber V158 movement powered by solar light. That’s right, the SNE331 doesn’t need a replaceable battery, instead it converts light into energy and has a power reserve of up to 10 months. Finally, a screwdown caseback and a hardlex mineral crystal give it a water resistance of up to 100 meters. Pick one up at the link below.
