SRPD55 is the most similar to the 007: https://www.seikoboutique.co.uk/product/seiko-5-sports-4/ - same size, basically, but without a screw down crown and lacking a lume pip in the bezel. In pretty much all other areas the quality and finishing is as good or better than the 007 (eg the markers have stamped and polished metal surrounds rather than just printed lume), but they are not “proper” ISO-certified divers watches like the SKX007 was.
These new ones are smaller, more like the SKX013, which is another cult classic. Would love them to do a Pepsi bezel one.
I should probably try one on. Had a long love affair with my 007 and I'm struggling to wear the watches I have already...what am I even doing in this thread?
