Seiko Prospex LX line

Diver

Owners widely report the Seiko Prospex LX line's finishing is a step up from other models, with a case that sits well on the wrist, and some praise the green sunburst dial with blue anti-reflective sapphire crystal as phenomenal. However, owners note the high MSRP limited sales, with some desiring smaller cases and a reduced price, and others experienced quality control issues such as detached second hands and peeling DLC coating, leading to concerns about fragility. On balance, owners feel the Seiko Prospex LX line was discontinued due to pricing that alienated its target market, despite its attractive dial.
