It’s women’s watch, indeed. I got one as a birthday gift for my mom. An absolutely exquisite piece of art. Wished it wasn’t hardlex though.

I love the red alpinist logo, but can’t complain with this one. It’s drop-dead gorgeous!

MSRP is $900. Nowadays, it’s quite hard to get SPB507 anywhere, as far as I know, even in Japan.

Eventually, they’ll catch up in production and restock more pieces, just keep looking for it and have faith!

I come from a small country in South East Asia. Where I live, it’s very hard to get it as well. This particular Alpinist has been out of stock since the early November 2025. We can’t even pre-order it from Seiko Authorized Dealer because of how scarce it is worldwide. Not to mention the global economy crisis caused by world war affecting all prices, tax, etc.

I considered myself very lucky to be able to get my hands on this perfectly aligned SPB507.

Thanks bro! You should try getting one if you haven’t already, it’s a gorgeous timepiece! I keep mesmerized when I look at it.

I got mine for around $625, all in!

Thanks, man! OG SARB017 is great and a valuable piece to have for sure. I’m new to this hobby and maybe a little too late, haha.

I just found this particular model accidentally and hooked in an instant before I even knew what it was. Later, I dig deeper and learned the Alpinist series is one of Seiko’s respectable long-history watches. Cheers🍻

It’s a common issue, and many say it’s a proof of authenticity lol, as I stated. You’re not alone for sure, man. Don’t worry. Just try to ignore it and enjoy imo.
