Excellent alpinist model and very fast shipping. The prices are great, and customer service is top-notch. Pro tip: To avoid PayPal exchange fees, pay in JPY using a currency-compatible credit card. The store is transparent about the total in Yen at checkout. Highly recommended!

A perfect JDM model! The watch arrived very quickly, and the pricing was excellent. I would definitely buy from this store again. Regarding the PayPal exchange rate issues some buyers mentioned: it isn't the store's fault. During checkout, it specifies the total will be paid in JPY. If you use a card with a JPY currency balance, you won't pay more than the stated price. Overall, Sakurawatches.com provides great service and support.

I'm way up in Northern California and have to put the watch on the window sill to receive the Atomic signal reliably (same with my Casio). This watch is a great value and while beauty may be in the eye of the beholder one cannot argue the fit and finish on the watch is way above the price point. I've put mine on a black leather strap and think it will look good on just about any color or style strap you like. It's very versatile, handsome and high tech.

Quick expedition and prompt delivery, the watch was in my hands within a week of ordering it.
Beautiful watch, excellent polishing, finishing and overall product quality. This one is running at +3 seconds a day. Wears and feels more like a 40mm watch would, which was kind of off-putting at first, but even now after 2 weeks "honeymoon", it's still on my wrist daily.

Absolutely thrilled with my new Seiko! I ordered from Sakura Watches to Hungary, and the DHL delivery was unbelievably fast. The watch was perfectly packaged, completely flawless, and the quartz movement is super precise. The whole process, including customs, was seamless and professional. Excellent seller, highly recommended for anyone looking to buy authentic JDM watches!

Very beautiful watch! I wanted something that is alpinist-like but cheaper as I can't afford an alpinist. This scratched my itch. If it had a sapphire crystal and a little bit better QC in some marker alignments then it would be amazing.

This was my fifth purchase from Sakura, and as usual, I am thoroughly satisfied with my purchase, the piece is very nice indeed.
The aesthetics lean more towards the Cosmograph 16520, with Seiko's own twist.
The super clear sapphire crystal is stunning and very practical at all angles and lighting conditions.
Lume is not bad, doesn't last all night tho.
It's a well made, solid watch with the feature of solar power will provide many years of reliable service.
Sakura Watches service and communication, like always is excellent and delivery to Sydney via DHL was very fast, thank you again!

This is a top-level G-Shock, the Multiband 6 Tough Solar Frogman. My eyes aren't great and I could use slightly bigger numerals, but it's not a deal-breaker. I can't take this watch off my wrist even though I have expensive mechanical divers to choose from. This Frogman just suits me. I've purchased from Sakura before. As always, an honest, reliable seller. Recommended.

The shipping was fast and reliable via DHL Express delivery! The updates were frequent.
Now lets begin with the watch! It is almost funny what quality you can get from the JDM compared to the western/european market. all together with taxes, the watch itself and shipping the total amount was 500 euros.
And what do you get for 500 euros? a perfectly machined titanium watch, with an almost invisible saphire crystal with a nice blue AR coating. the AR coating is relatively visible, but i think it works pretty well with the beautifull black, pinstripe dial and a subtle sunburst. the indicies play with the light in an almost sparkly way, the way you expect with more expensive watches. The hands have a half frosted, half polished finish.
And the cherry on the cake, for me: The radio controlled timesetting. i wanted a watch that would be on time, evertime. i get great reception from the cesium nuclear clock in germany, wich is perfect!! Don't forget the solar charging ;)
To wrap things up: amazing value for money. I wouldn't change anything. I can't come up with a single thing I am missing.
10/10

Best G-Shock I've ever owned. Would recommend to anyone. This is also my third purchase with Sakura and I could not be more satisfied. They delivery fast, and the package has always arrived on time and in proper condition.

Happy with this watch. Looks *great* in real life. Delighted that second hand aligns exactly with markers. I have used it in the swimming pool and it works well. Screw-down crown is appreciated. Bi-directional bezel works fine. Good value for a unique looking (JDM) Seiko. Fast shipping from Sakura.
The only negative is that it is not super easy to read in the dark.

I purchased this watch as a gift to my son who lives in a large city in another state. He very much likes the design and the Seiko solar-powered function. His receipt of the watch may have been lucky however because DHL left it not as requested by personal Signature but outside the front door of a secured apartment building in the elements! I hold DHL liable, not Sakura. Regardless, the beautiful watch arrived promptly and communication was good.

First time me diving into the world of watches. Glad I went with this pick due to the watch being a nice daily watch to have and wear. It's nice and subtle where it's not too flashy but all my coworkers who have seen the watch in person say it's incredibly nice. Box was well protected, documentation and the little tool to adjust the wrist strap worked great. Easy to adjust as well on the watch.
One of my coworkers recommended Sakura Watches and stated that sometimes the shipping can take a while but luckily my order was quite fast than what I was anticipating. Might be hit or miss depending more so on the carriers and transit but I would recommend this watch to anyone and buying from here.

Shipping was fast, constant tracking, no problems whatsoever, would gladly order again anytime.
The Casio Oceanus S100 is a marvel of Japanese watchmaking: precise, lightweight titanium, the second hand hits all the indices, the watch receives the radio signal without any problems, and the luminous material glows steadily.
I also own an Oceanus T200, but the S100 surpasses it. I prefer it to all my mechanical watches.

Timeless, but make it aesthetic✨
This is the prettiest watch I have ever owned. It has the perfect vibe and gives such an aesthetic, clean-girl look. I truly can’t express how happy I am with this purchase.
I had been wanting this particular watch for a long time and hesitated for two months before finally deciding to buy it online. Thankfully, Sakura Watches made it possible. Their communication was clear, the process was smooth, and the shipment was excellent. It arrived within a week

- Fast delivery.
- Securely packaged.
- Excellent quality.
- Easy to read dial and hands.
- The second hand hits the markers precisely.
- The watch feels very nice to the touch. No worse than a Grand Seiko.
(My hand is 17.5-18 cm.)
Thank you, Sakura!)
