Beautiful watch but faulty description
This is a beautiful watch with the narrowest band still available from Seiko. My wrist circumference is 5 ½ inches and this band fits comfortably at the third tightest hole and snugly at the second tightest hole with a little more than an inch of holes remaining. I bought it primarily because of the solar battery. (I have 10 watches, all of which require batteries, so I have to replace at least one battery every month.) NOTE: The product description says this watch has Day/Date calendar, LumiBrite hands and markers and is a Caliber V138. In fact, it has no calendar, no LumiBrite hands/markers and the Caliber is V115. If those features are important to you, keep looking; if not, you'll be happy with this watch.

Perfect if you have smaller wrists!
My last Seiko Solar was perfect, until sadly the crystal cracked, but that was completely my fault, not Seiko's. I continued to wear it until one of the shards came out and I cut my finger...that's how much I loved it. Unfortunately, the same watch wasn't in stock (different color band) but this one was. So happy with the fit as well as the look. The beautiful brown croc band goes with everything, just like my black one did. Watches NEVER fit me out of the box, until Seiko. Seller had it delivered within 2-3 days. I will try and be more careful with this one! Perfect for every occasion, casual to best dressed.

Beautiful small solar watch!
The watch is quite lovely and was a great gift. The price was higher than Seiko's previous-generation watch of the same style, and the brown band was not what we wanted, so we bought and substituted a black calfskin band.

Beautiful Watch, Great Value but inferior strap.
I love the watch. It is beautiful to look at and doesn't require a battery. That said,because the first hole doesn't allow enough material to slip through the loop the watch fits uncomfortably tight even though my wrist is smaller than average. I eventually hope to replace it if I can get to a jewelry store.

Looks like the real thing!
This is my favorite watch style. It can be “dressy” or casual. And the best part is that no battery ever needs to be replaced or that you must remember to wind it. My only issue is that band is pretty stiff and a bit short. Otherwise, I’m VERY pleased with this purchase.

Sadly, had to return it.
This is a beautiful watch! Seikos are my favorite watches, and I had my last one for years and years. When I bought a new watch I decided to try a Citizen solar watch. It is OK, but it isn't a Seiko. When I saw this watch I was so excited and immediately ordered it. I opened that package. It was as beautiful as it looked in the picture. Then, I tried it on. I couldn't believe how tiny the watchband was. I put it on the very last hole and it was so tight it pinched my skin on my wrist. It was painful. I knew I couldn't keep it because there was no way I could wear it as uncomfortable as it was. Like I said, sadly, I returned it. If the seller reads this I would like to know if they could sell me this watch with a regular size band. If they could, I would be happy to re-buy it.

so tired of batteries
Ok, so I will continue to replace batteries because I have a couple of watches I really love. And, in these days of covid, I don't wear a watch much anyway. But I really like this solar powered watch. It's attractive and I know it won't have a dead battery on the very day I need to dress up. It's a little thicker than quartz watches, but it's not really noticeable and not much of a minus, in any case. I'm really glad I made the leap, impulsive as it was

Very expensive looking watch!
This was a Christmas gift from my husband. I wanted something in this shape and some people that saw mine thought it was a very, very expensive. Can you say C------.? I love the Seiko brand and have always had good luck with it. No problem with the fit of the band. I have plenty of room with it. FYI my wrist is 6 1/8th inches.

this has a drawback
this is the first watch that i bought for myself in a very long time and the only drawback is that i have a very small wrist and the watch band is a little too stiff for me to handle by myself i have to get some one to help me put the toggle in the right hole to make it fit my wrist thank you
