Second, for context, I'm a Seiko-kinda-guy. This is probably my 15th-ish of the brand, starting with my first "nice" watch as my wedding present a couple decades ago. I've added a couple Astron GPS' (incl. 2012 1st Edition and 2014 Limited), Premier, Arctura, Kinetic, Recraft, etc. I've sold a few and I'm learning to discipline my purchases...sorta. I'm also a collector of world timers and GMTs (JLC, Nomos, Frederique Constant, IWC, Omega, Ocaeanus, Citizen, etc). I appreciate practicality, beauty and value but I've traveled a lot and have latched onto the convenience and wonder of a unique world timer.
What I love about the SSG019 in particular: 1) multi-time zone with cities around the thin-but-legible black bezel that are pretty subtle; 2) gorgeous multi-patterned dial with THE deepest royal blue and silver silver accents. It's absolutely stunning in direct sunlight. Seriously, how this practical (solar!?!) and stunning dial did not get more attention in horological media is beyond belief but hopefully that just keeps prices down; 3) the dial is not overly busy. The day/date/24hr/time zone indicators are just the right amount for efficient travelers. Me, I don't need a chrono or moon phase on a travel watch; 4) speaking of, the asymmetric real estate of the day-of-week indicator is unexpected from Seiko and cool. Screw symmetry--it might be one of my favorite aspects of any watch that I own!; 5) Solar AND Radio Wave--no muss, no fuss! No winding, no time setting, and no need to rebuild every 5-10 years. (In contrast, I'm seriously dreading the cost of overdue service on my JLC Master Geo). 6) The blue flourish on crown is not quite Cartier Ballon Bleu but it's a nice and unexpected touch on a sub-$1k quartz watch.
Conversely: 1) I love bracelets and this is better than average for a (non-Grand) Seiko but I wish I had the option of a strap if I'm feeling squirrely; 2) I it's pretty big (44mm x 13mm) and you have to like a medium-weight watch. I get used to my titanium daily-wearers and I really feel the weight of this, which is good for a change, but I don't know if I want to have this on my 7.5" wrist every day; 3) The hands are of great design but the lume sucks. Face it, you're going to look at your phone or Fitbit if it's dark anyway.
Bottom line, I think Seiko nailed the design and execution on this one. Why a drop-dead-gorgeous tech-enabled-but-simple solar/radio sync watch like this isn't premium priced is absolutely beyond me. In a parallel marketing universe, this is easily a $4,000-$5,000 watch. Would I want it as my one and only? Quite possibly, but I like variety too much. I can, however, definitely see this as a 1-of-3 or "desert island" watch due to the practicality, beauty and affordability.
It’s absolutely fantastic in its looks and functionality. I was a little skeptical after reading some of the reviews. The biggest complaint was that it requires manually adjusting the watch for daylight savings times. This is true but it’s absolutely a no brainer! Just push and hold the B button and then scroll between the A and B buttons to move the time zone forward or back. All you have to do is remember this one thing after it’s all set up.
Now the bad, the watch is fairly complicated to understand all the adjustments and settings. Setting the small 24hr dial is difficult and you can’t even see it anyway. It really has little function except it looks nice. I never use it and will not waste anytime trying to set it again. The directions for setting this watch are complicated so I made my own simplified version. Then I spent a lot of time going through all the settings and learning how to set it.
6 months later I would have to go back and look to change anything The cool thing is I will never have to! The date is updated automatically….a first for me, every watch I’ve owned I have to manually change the date.
It connects to the atomic clock about 2-3 times a week and I never take it off. Don’t mess around trying to set it up to get a signal.
It’s super accurate, mirroring the time on my cell phone.
In conclusion. This watch has stunning looks, very functional with a day of the week and date that are easily visible and update automatically. Easily adjusted for daylight savings and super accurate.
Also very affordable compared to GPS watches.
Buy it and you will never regret it.
My review is a 4.8 out of 5. Only negative is the 24hr dial. It’s hard to set and see to use, really just for looks.

My review is a 4.8 out of 5. Only negative is the 24hr dial. It’s hard to set and see to use, really just for looks.
The watch has a nice heft to it, but its bracelet is comfortable due to the use of soft curves, and this makes the weight less of an issue. It has one of traditional Seiko clasp functions where you squeeze the outside of the band to unlock the bracelet, and then a double-fold mechanism angles out, allowing you to remove the watch while reducing the possibility of dropping it since the band always stays connected (great design). The stem is a screw-down type so that you unscrew it first before engaging it, and then screw it back down when you are done making adjustments.
This is a beautiful watch that really does seem worth more than you pay for it, and it has an elegance that is squarely in the mid-range Seiko line-up. It's terrific. But I would be remiss if I did not mention that this is a complicated watch to set up when you first receive it. There are four case buttons plus the stem that you must use in a very specific order to set the time zone, then ensure you are picking up the radio signal from your area, and making minute first adjustments. It's not impossible, but it's not for those in a hurry, either. You have to take your time to read the instructions very carefully and follow the procedures exactly as stated, or you won't get the watch into its initial state. And it really is a bit complicated: you basically end up using all the controls to do different things, need to set the watch next to a window for 12 minutes at a certain point in the sequence (I'm not joking), and then make sure you press the correct buttons in the correct sequence. I must say it took me about 30 minutes of studying the instructions and then about 30 minutes to actually follow all the procedures, a couple of which I had to re-do because I had done them incorrectly. But the ultimate payoff after that is that the watch keeps time by itself from that time on, and all you have to do is ensure it gets some light now and then (the battery is solar-powered, but has a very long cycle to it and can be charged even with indoor light). I wouldn't let the complications at the beginning make you hesitant to purchase it, but just be aware that you need to do the startup procedures at the beginning.
A truly beautiful watch, it's one that you will want to try to take care of because you'll want to keep it for a long time. Five stars.
Top reviews from other countries
I wasn't able to get the manual radio sync option to work which worried me at first, but the auto-sync worked perfectly as scheduled later that night. Seems to be no issue with signal reception here in western Canada. It didn't come with a paper manual but there was a link to find the manual online. Be sure to read through these instructions as setting the various features like time zones is not really intuitive.
My only complaint is that the night-glow on the hands is very dull even after being in the sun for a long while. I wish there was an actual back-lit feature for the hands and time positions.
Overall I'm happy with the watch. For a sub $700 time piece this has a lot of nice features and looks great.
