Question for Seiko Prospex Turtle owners
Can someone please tell me the difference between these two? The price differs significantly for some reason.
Seiko SRPC49J1 Ninja Turtle
SEIKO SRPC49K1 Ninja Turtle
I did some Googles for you🤜🤛
The SRPC49J1 is not Kanji-English, but Arabic-English. The SRPC49K1 does not have “MADE IN JAPAN” on the dial, is made in Malaysia, and has an English-Spanish or English-French day wheel.
IMO there is no difference
I am not sure if this applies to other parts of the watch but movements are always Japan-made. I also own both J and K versions and cannot see any difference in overall quality.
That’s great to know!
What is your overall impression of the SRPC49’s — would you purchase again? I was also looking at this one:
Land Tortoise Special Edition SRPJ33
Personally the differences wouldn’t be enough for me to spend many hundreds more
I don’t have a ninja turtle but I love my “Sea Grapes” or whatever its nickname is/was
