00:00 Introduction
In this video, we offer a look into the different case sizes encountered within the Seiko SKX model line.
00:39 Overview
The watches presented on screen (left to right) are:
SKX011
SKX009
SKX013
SKX007
SKX009
All of the models presented, except the SKX013, possess a 42.5mm case. The lug to lug measurement is 46mm. The height of the case is 14mm and the strap size is 22mm.
Comparatively, the 38mm SKX has a 38mm case diameter, 44mm lug-to-lug measurement, 13mm thick, and 20mm between the lugs (strap size).
03:33 42.5mm vs 38mm Cases Up-Close
Many aspects of both of the SKX dive watches are the same. Both have a day-date complication with a screw-down crown, diver's bezel, and 200m water resistance.
Both of these watches are also powered by the self-winding Seiko 7S26 movement. This movement has a 41-hour power reserve.
04:36 Strap/Bracelet
The SKX013 is most commonly encountered on the Seiko SKX Jubilee. On the other hand, the 42.5mm can be purchased on the rubber strap or Jubilee bracelet, though the bracelets are different from each other.
05:16 Case Design Differences
While slight, the SKX013 (38mm) does appear to have a different case design. Broadly speaking, the lugs appear sharper than on the 42.5mm SKX. The distal end of the lugs also have a different design, with the SKX013 having what appear to be sharper lugs.
06:54 Lume & Dial Comparison
All SKX models are equipped with Seiko LumiBrite lume that is green in color. All models are also equipped with a Seiko Hardlex crystal when they ship from the factory.
