Seiko 5 Sports is Seiko's everyday automatic sports watch, a line that goes back to the 1963 Sportsmatic 5. La Maison Monaco, an authorized Seiko dealer in Canada, lists 46 Seiko 5 Sports from $425 to $650 CAD, all automatic and water resistant to 100 m, in three families: the SKX series, the Field series and the SNXS series, from 28 to 42.5 mm.
The SKX series (26 watches, $425 to $650) is the divers' style, with a rotating bezel, and includes the women's models. The Field series (12 watches, $425 to $625) is the field-watch style, 36.4 to 41 mm, and some models add a 24-hour hand. The SNXS series (8 watches, $525 to $575) is the most compact family, 32 to 37.4 mm. Seiko's 145th Anniversary limited editions appear among the SKX and Field series.
What movement is in a Seiko 5 Sports?
Every Seiko 5 Sports we list is automatic, and every one is water resistant to 100 m. Many, such as the SRPD51 and the SRPL59, use the 4R36, an automatic that also winds by hand and has a stop-seconds function, with about 41 hours of power reserve. The product page shows each reference's movement, case size, material and CAD price.
