This is an interesting watch. At first I wasn't sure if I liked the smaller (for me) size, but I appreciate the smaller bulk and weight. The pictures generally also don't do justice to how nice the raised rather than just painted numerals and other textured parts of the face make it look. The effect is quite old-fashioned and very appropriate for a field watch.
I might replace the strap though, but that's probably just because I'm not generally used to NATO straps. As with the size, I might grow to like it in time: whichever way you wear it, it does make the watch more stable on the wrist.
One extra point: due to the way the 4R36 movement rotates the day wheel, if you set yours to Japanese, it will first flip to the next day in English at around 1 am, and only after that change to kanji at about 4 am.

Sakura's price on the Grand Seiko SBGX261 was ~$400 less than the best deal I could get at the AD here in the US. The watch arrived at my house in just under 1 week from order placement. New in the box and well packed to avoid any damage. Definitely would recommend Sakura watches!

This was my second purchase from Sakura. Everything went well, although it took a little longer to be shipped. Delivery via DHL to Australia was very fast and able to track it the whole way. My watch arrived well packaged in good condition. It is an amazing watch. It’s a big beast with lots of presence on the wrist. I love the watch. Thank you Sakura watches.

You want an evaluation... Well, here it is.
This watch is really magnificent in this dark grey colour ; almost at the level of finish of a KingSeiko... except for the strap buckle.
I'm used to seiko, but I'm turning more and more towards Citizen witch the value for money is really Impressive.
My model is precise around -2 sec per day, with is well-known 9011 movement at 28800 beats per hour and -10/+20s.
You should count between 1800 and 3400€ for this kind of mechanism at -10 seconds, +15 seconds per day for a KingSeiko 6L35.
You can even count 3700€ on some limited edition, like the 62MAS réédition SJE093J1 with the 6L37 !
Much more for an SLA / 8L35 between 3200 and 4200€ in a Tuna Prospex series.
For this price, Seiko still worth offering compared to Citizen a micro adjustment screw to improve the precision of the mechanism.
So Seiko is no longer as democratic as it used to be.
As you can see, one word... unbeatable.
Fortunately for European buyers, Sakura website puts them on sale, which allows you to recover on the additional costs that are VAT and customs taxes.
Don't forget to have a look on Citizen NB1060 which are even more interesting.

This is my first purchase from Sakura and I was very happy with the service I received.
The watch is great, it is nice and light and has a very clear and legible dial.
I live in England and was able to set the time using the JJY Emulator app on my phone.

Very, very happy with my purchase. The SARY095 is an absolutely gorgeous watch - even more stunning in person on the wrist. The dial is really special for the price point of this watch. And the buying experience with Sakura Watches was top-notch. I hope to buy another piece from them in the near future.

what sold me initially was the size of the watch. I like a 42/43 mm size. The workmen ship is outstanding and the appearance is stunning. It is a great value and I can recommend it without reservation. Sakura. Watches seem to have the best price and the shipping was quick.

A lovely watch! I have a smaller risk, so the mini turtle is better for me, and the JDM version of the mini turtle is just a bit nicer and more unusual that the standard mini turtle. Service and delivery were excellent too. As you can see from the picture, I have changed to a classic rubber divers, as the bracelet is a bit bulky and the strap makes the watch look more retro.

I recently ordered this casio solar watch at Sakura and I am very satisfied with my purchase. They were very nice and fast, and the package was very well protected. The DHL's tracking and messaging system was very effective also. Overall, I am very please with this Casio model I was looking for, which I could only find at Sakura. Thank you, please keep up the good work!

An excellent model—and wonderful assistance from sakurawatches.com. The staff was very helpful in helping me locate an alternative band (titanium from the CC5005-68Z sister model), order it from the manufacturer and bundle all items into a single shipment. Thank you!

What a great watch! It is the ideal "Go Anywhere, Do Anything" watch. It looks great on the black resin strap. There is also a steel bracelet version. The time is easy to read, and I like the simple Bluetooth connectivity to the Casio app. My main criticism is that the LCD display could have been clearer.

Hi, short review of my new F-91. Really happy by the Japan version, the package is smaller than the one we get in Europe, there is no "U" under "resist" on mine. If I am not wrong, this small detail disappeared in 2023 for all the recent version. Even on Casio EU website, on the picture od the F-91, there is no more "U". It is made in Thailand like my F-105. Well, a watch we should all have at home.

Fantastic wristwatch! Reguno is lesser known sub brand or Citizen outside Japan. I loved the size, the dial printing and elegance of its overall design. The fact that it was solar powered was the deal maker for me since I've seen similar models from both Orient and Seiko for higher prices elsewhere. I'm not a fan of the metal bracelet but can't complain for this price point - swapped out for a black leather strap. This was my first purchase from Sakura watched and I am pleased with the delivery time and satisfactory packaging. I hope they stock more interesting JDM timepieces like this!

Magnificient watch. The dark/blue colour and light brightness are really beautiful. I purchased this one because it is Japan made (vs. lots of other one made in Thailand).
The price at Sakura is attractive, customer service is helpful and kind, delivery is quick and reliable (tough quite expensive but it comes a long way from Japan to France).

First Seiko, decided to spring for the limited edition. Dial is a deep purple (not as bright as in the photos), which gives it a sleek look with the flecks of gold scattered throughout. Titanium is crazy light on my wrist also.
Pretty happy with the look and finish if you are into a black/gold sort of look.
What I ended up realizing is that PVD coating is not ideal, which is my only downside, as I'm already seeing some wear on the bracelet. Unsure what it'll look like long term.
Overall, love it, but you just need to be conscious that it'll wear in a way that may be a little obnoxious

47 grams, this is the weight of this sweet baby, wich means you won't even notice it on your wirst. Has there ever been a lighter G shock?
Yet it is a very nice G Shock with its carbon fiber Insert, fully packed for a lifetime with solar powered and radio control.
And as usual, secure transaction and fast delivery with Sakura Watches, who never disappoints! :)

This watch shipped so quickly! From order date to delivery date was less than 2 weeks! I was so impressed!! The watch was a gift for my husband and he loves it! It is such a beautiful watch. He did a lot of research and picked this one. It looks absolutely stunning with a navy blue suit too!! Stands out but isn’t too flashy!! I would highly recommend!
