What watch do you buy if you have only $100 to spend but you want something that will last a lifetime? What is the best place to start for your first new automatic timepiece? Today I review a watch that has been long overdue for a closer look and review. In my opinion, the Seiko SNK809 is the best option under the $100 price point. Its heritage, classic design and well respected movement make it the perfect ticket into our wonderful and massively rewarding hobby of watches. No matter if it is the only watch you need for everyday or simply to add some affordable fun to any collection, the SNK809 has got you covered.

My first automatic watch and I still love it. I had a slight problem with the winding rotor coming lose after some serious impacts, but I was able to fix it myself with a little luck.

Fantastic watches at a price point that everyone can afford, I have 2 in my collection and enjoy wearing them often.

TGV, I stumbled upon your channel on night while going down the rabbit hole of fight videos and such and came across your review of the Seiko SNKL23 (Don’t know how I ended up with your video!). Since then I was hooked. The SNK809 has been my second purchase and it was a thrill to search for it and get an great deal on it. 40$ delivered, can’t beat that.

Got this for Christmas along with several NATO straps. Love it!

I’ve actually recently bought one to see what all the fuss was about. Wearing it now and it’s slowly growing on me, albeit it’s small size 😉

Was the other watch I was considering before my Citizen.

This was my first automatic watch. Still happy with it.

Hi all, just new here. Love the website and especially the Youtube channel. I totally agree with you, this watch is the best deal you can find if you want to start a collection. It is my first automatic watch and for the money spent…well, couldn’t be more satisfied. 60 euro for a lifetime watch 🙂
Sorry for the late reply
Regards,

I’m considering adding this timepiece to my collection and eventually contacting Jeff @watchmakers4 for mod advice, thanks to your recommendations, TGV!

i just bought the SNK805. I liked the color over the SNK809, so far this is a great watch, especially for the price!

I do love the look of this watch, but it felt a bit small for my wrist. How about a 39-43mm watch in that price range?
