This very popular automatic divers watch is well known for it’s distinctive red & blue bezel. It is often referred to as the Seiko Pepsi. Introduced in 1996 both the SKX009 and it’s all black sibling, the Seiko SKX007 incorporated Seiko’s Calibre 7S26 automatic movement. A reliable mechanical movement featuring 21 jewels – running at 21,600bph. The 7S26 is non-hacking with quick set day & date. If ever there was a Seiko dive watch for the people – the SKX009 is it.
WHAT TO PAY? – Prices for this model vary greatly and depend on several factors. Condition and provenance aside – the next biggest influencer on price is specific model. Expect to pay more for a JDM version – that’s a watch made for the Japanese domestic market. These models are the SKX009J1 and Seiko SKX009J2 with “Made in Japan” on the watch’s dial. For the purist it has to be a an SKX009J and they can expect to pay over £250 for the privilege.
However, the average watch fan may be happy with an SKX009K version. Often considerably cheaper these versions are made “elsewhere” and can sometimes sell for less than £150. The Seiko SKX009K1 and SKX009K2 have been assembled in factories outside of Japan (Malaysia maybe). Remember to keep your eye out for modified versions – people sometimes add an aftermarket dial signed “Made in Japan” to an SKX009K and pass it off as an SKX009J ….
