SEIKOPRESAGE Automatic Ice Blue Cocktail Time "Sky Diving" SRPB43J1

my only real complaint about this watch is that I wish they'd left the date function off of it. the watch face looks great, but would look even better without the date window. also, the date needs to be adjusted basically every other month since it assumes 31 days per month.I'm puzzled by other reviewers who say the dial isn't blue. it's definitely an ice blue color; if it didn't look blue to them, they must have been looking at it in weird lighting conditions

This is obviously a dress watch, but it would look better without a date function. The Hardlex glass is thick and feels like plastic. A flat sapphire crystal would be a big improvement. The well detailed sunburst dial looks light blue in bright daylight and it's beautiful. The crown is big for a dress watch and you can feel the whirring mechanism when you wind it. The movement is visible on the back. This is a watch for collectors who value style and elegance. I highly recommend this Seiko.

Dial looks more pearl white

The dial is amazing. It's ice blue in one light, but turn it and it's white and silver. Seiko always offers great value for what you pay and this is an excellent piece. The band is shiny leather, like patent leather. If you want something matte finish, it's easily replaced. Personally, I think it goes well with the style of the dial and the case. The seller was great.

I just received this watch this afternoon. I was very excited to receive it, believing it was going to be blue like the video reviews say it is. The description also indicates it is blue. The videos and description even going to say that as the watch moves on your wrist, it flashes different hues of blue. No such thing.It is nothing of the sort. It is a plain silver face watch. Don’t get me wrong, it’s a pretty watch, but if you were looking for a blue watch, this is not it.I will be returning it tomorrow. By the way, this is the second Seiko I have bought in the last 30 days that advertised the face is blue. Neither one was. This one, as I said, with silver. The first one was almost black.I called my jeweler to see if I could come in person and pick out a “blue” Seico. They indicated they are not ordering Seikos anymore because they don’t think they’re carrying the line in the future.Maybe there’s a reason for that.I’m very disappointed in Seiko advertising something that is not real.

Love the watch and keeps great time compared to my Atomic Clock.

I have many collections of watches. Today I got this watch it came in a very nice Seiko box. I love the style and the name cocktail is understandable when the exterior color reflects the watch dial it adopts the color. Yes, it generally looks like a silver dial and not blue. But if you look at it from the angle it is an ice blue. Ice blue should be a very faded light color and that is what this watch reflects. Also Made in Japan and the 23 Jewels is a great way to go. Keep in mind there are many presage watches that are fake and don’t say made in Japan, and keep in mind Japan Movd. and Made in Japan are two different meanings. Japan Movd. The machine movement is from Japan but wasn’t assembled in Japan, so be careful with it.I think this watch is authentic and not fake. Because it comes with Seiko telephone numbers and the warranty to register.

I like this watch. Good value for the money. Two criticisms: The black patent leather strap just doesn't work with the watch. It is unattractive and cheap looking. The dial is not Ice Blue. It is silver. A new satrap from Barton is a great improvement.
