 Nice watch June 22, 2005

Every Seiko I have ever owned has been extremely reliable. The big difference here is the weight. The titanium makes the watch very light. Simple to set, it keeps time perfectly. Looks expensive, but you know better. Highly recommended!

I bought this watch at an auction site and when it was delivered I thought the box was empty because the watch is so lightweight. I own many watches, including a Kinetic Seiko, and this titanium beauty ranks near the top. Only my Rolex Datejust is nicer looking than this timepiece.
It is very easy to set the day, date and time and the accuracy is unbeatable. I highly suggest this watch for you or to buy as a gift. The Seiko website lists the suggested price at $395, so Amazon is giving you a nice bargain at the current price.
outstanding! July 19, 2006

I've owned mostly Seiko's since 1971 when I bought my first one in Hong Kong. It was an automatic and lasted 5 years, till I dropped it. My latest did the same. This titanium is the best of them all. Light, clean, accurate, and prety thin. Very easy to read in bad light with these tired eyes. To take out a link on the band, all you need is an ice pick or similar. Undo the band pin, and put the watch on a towel. Put the tip of the pick in the depression, and push hard following the arrows on the band. It will come out slowly, and you can snatch it out. After that, put it back together, and adjust the fine tune using the holes in the clasp. Not too hard if you're strong enough.
I normally don't buy battery watches because I hate to get a new battery and all the hassle. With this 5 year life, though, it should be ok. The increased accuracy, thinness, and reduced weight, makes it worth it to me. BTW, titanium is much tougher than SS, and won't scratch as easily. It looks better, and weighs less. Highly satisfied with this watch! (I hate all the monster watches now being sold to the kiddies).
Great watch, excellent service. January 20, 2007

I was turned onto this watch based on the stellar reviews here on Amazon. I purchased one a few months ago and it met my expectations perfectly. The face is a very very dark blue which only comes out when light is reflecting on it, and the titanium makes the whole watch very attractive and light. The one thing that was a little surprising to me was that when worn at certain angles in quiet rooms... the tick, tock, tick, tock is quite pronounced. I don't consider that to be a good thing or a bad thing, it's just something to be aware of.
Regarding service! For some reason the hook connecting the wristband to the watch bent out... and bending it back in only made it weaker until it snapped off. I think what started this was catching my watch on something ... anyways, I contacted the support division and they offered to send me out a new wristband immediately at no cost. You can't beat that service.
 Very nice watch, but glass scratches easily August 5, 2007

This is a very nice watch, but with two drawbacks: (1) it takes about 4 hours to update the day display (midnight till 4AM). For those working after midnight, it is annoying that the date and day is not more instantaneous. (2) The glass scratches easily, which is why I rate it down.
The new watch SGG729 comes with sapphire glass and is rated for 100m. If I was buying today, I would have chosen the SGG729 over the SGG709. Still, the 4-hour date turnover problem will probably persist.
