The Seiko Sportura Chrono is actually an snl017p1 watch, this is now an older version, the newer one being the snl021, it has a genuine leather strap which will not break, it's kinetic and like most Seiko watches, have anti glare saphire crystal on the outer glass face, which means its almost completely scratch resistant, obviously it will still break if its smashed hard. I own a snl021 and it is an amazing time piece which keeps time great, it still looks great and brand new, even though ive had it weeks and wear it everyday. It is however expensive £525 in most stores, however I found a store, called TIMEDON they were selling it for £339.99, which is the cheapest legitimate store in the UK. This watch is a great watch and if you know where to look you can get it at an amazing price, I hope this helps.

Seiko Sportura Chrono - There are so many choices out there when you decide to invest in a watch. Most watches out there are reasonably functional and accurate and to spend money on one, we must look for something which is unique and special. To me, buying a watch which is unique is of paramount importance. This is one watch that you will remember by once you have seen it.

Strong emphasis is placed at the front of the watch, jet black dials with bright orange chrono counter needles makes the watch stands out. Even the buttons and crown are decorated with bright orange markings! Cool!

Design of the dial are detailed but not necessarily cluttered. It is very clear.

The saphire glass both front and back (see through back) comes in handy for rugged users. Although the dial for time indication is small, reading the time does not present any problems whatsoever as the bright roman markings are clear. The hour and minute hands are painted with Seiko's Lumibrite which could sustain it's glow over a few hours if sufficiently charged with UV light.

Overall, this is a watch the will make people take a second look if you have it on your wrist. I am absolutely happy with the watch so far.
