Seiko Speedtimer SSC815P Blue Dial $489 (OOS), SSC813P Panda Dial $579 Delivered @ Starbuy

590

Ripper deal for today. I've got a Speedtimer myself and it's a fantastic watch. Great size, legible dial, solar, sapphire - see someone wax lyrical here about theirs.

It's back on! This time Starbuy have replaced the Blue dial (Seiko Speedtimer SSC815P which is completely sold out) with the Panda dial and listed it at their previous sale price of $579. I received a PM from them advising me of this, and that they've secured some more stock from Seiko specifically for this. Post has been updated to reflect the new model.

Edit: Sadly, the fun didn't last long today. Within minutes of my posting the stock levels had dropped below 10 units and now it looks like they're all gone. Maybe Deepak will replace it with something else?

Full specs:

  • Case Diameter: 39mm
  • Case Thickness: 13.3mm
  • Case Material: Stainless Steel
  • Crystal: Sapphire
  • Movement: Solar V192 Chronograph
  • Strap: Stainless Steel Bracelet
  • Warranty: Seiko 3 year

The good folks at Hodinkee agreed it's pretty good, as did the team at Time & Tide.

  • Had to do a double take when I saw the price. This has to be an all-time low for any Speedtimer model, right?

    • I think so. I have a feeling they're selling fast as there's already less than 10 available, there was plenty when I first checked.

    • yeah I think ATL for SSC series

    • Is this the colour that nobody wants though?

      Drop the price enough and I guess they do.

        yeah, i dont think this and the night vision can be as popular as the 911/pepsi/panda

      • Correct, like most clearances etc.

        It's still a great price, as long as you like those colours. The panda (and ivory) is so easy on the eyes. You'd get less resale as well if not popular. Pandas go for $450-500 second hand.

        May suit someone though.

        It’s not a nice colour . Hence the price steep price drop

        • Well, 30+ people liked it well enough between 10am-11:30am, because that’s how long it took Starbuy to clear all the stock.

          • @Chazzozz: Yea and plenty of people who don't hang out on here.

      • dont think its to do with colour. Rolex Daytona Panda is one of the most wanted. This looks a lot like it.

  • Wow. That’s a great price.

  • Fantastic price, color is a bit meh compare to other ssc (panda/911/pepsi). Seiko speedtimer overall are handsome watch.

    • +1

      The 911 is $611 which is decent as well.

      The Speedtimer ssc813p is beautiful.

      It is masculine, yet dainty and pert. I am a heterosexual male, but if I were to date a man I would want him to be like this watch, aesthetically and stylistically.

      It is vintage and old fashioned. I'm old fashioned myself, so that appeals to me. It is secure without being gaudy, loud without having to shout…

      It is a polite sexual liaison - without the trappings of erotica. There is no drama or window shopping, just raw pleasure.
      It isn't the honey but the hive itself, if you catch my meaning.

        You’re Claude???

        • bahaha - was wondering how long till someone spotted the copy pastas

  • What an amazing price! I have the 813 and 911 and so tempted to add this to my collection.

    • Which one do you like better?

      • I tend to wear the 813 Panda more often than the 911

          I think you'd want a Pagani speedy first haha

  • +1

    Thanks Op. Got the 911 instead of this one. My first Speedtimer :)

  • I saw this in Don Quixote other day even took a photo but the price tag is hidden

    Got a chronograph for about $130

    • +1

      You discovered it in a Spanish novel written in 1605?

      • Doing this on Steam Deck is hard ><

        Don Quijote*

    • wait seriously? donki in japan has this exact same watch for $130?? that's bargain basement price

      • Nah one I got was chronograph for $130 (idk model I uploaded photo)

        The one listed in op was actually 64000 yen so nevermind

  • What now? Party is over

    • Not sure why it’s marked as out of stock when the Panda is still available

      • it only just came back
        though 815 is still OOS

        • I've removed the expiry. There were 15x units of the Panda (SSC813P) left when I checked a minute ago.

  • Go speed racer, go speed racer, go speed racer goooooooo…..

  • Looks in stock

    • +1

      Found another box mistakenly labelled as "Invicta"

  • oooohhh so tempting to get the Panda speedy. But looking down to my wrist now with my Pagani speedy homage with domed sapphire, mega quartz, and only at $100, I managed to barely keep myself calm to save my money :)

    • +1

      I got the red white pd ‘speedy’ , the panda is worth the upgrade if you got cash to burn

      • "if you got cash to burn" - thanks for the wake up call. I got 2 kids (1 recently born), so yeah I have got no cash to burn :(
        btw that red PD panda is fire!

  • Watch depot got the 813 back at 575 pre $20 code too

    933p - $659 🤔

    939 p- 765 after OZBSSC939P code from Mike

    • @Mike-f

      Tight deal brah

    • +1

      911p $599 the dam breaks

      • 813 - 1 left
        939 - 9 left

        so wont post as a deal (will get merged into the black hole anyway)

        • @Chazzozz 933 should I????

          • +1

            @Jimothy Wongingtons: Which one that?
            Oh yeah black and blue, same as your panda

            Edit: I'd get a different style of watch before another one in a different colourway to be honest.

          • +1

            @Jimothy Wongingtons: Well, if you want a good, dark contrast with the 813 then the 933 is an excellent choice (I'm also a sucker for anything green…), but I think WD could do better than the price they've got it at. But, if you're more partial to the lighter colours then the 911 sure is a pretty dial and quite a bit less, especially if you're able to score the $20 coupon.

            How about the SSC915P? It's $60 less than the 933, and the black with blue sub-dials is eye-catching and the splash of red on the tachymeter really pops.

            @Jimothy Wongingtons: Worst SSC9XX cw imo

  • Really nice watch.

    A ladies watch at 39mm…nice though.

    • +1

      This again, yawn.

    • +1

      You need to see Jody’s latest video where he questions why makers label their product as ‘mens watches’ or ‘ladies watches’.

      TLDR - just call it ‘a watch’ and let the consumers decide if it’s the right size for them. I have a 7 1/4” wrist and I own one of these Speedtimers, and I think it suits me really nicely. I also own a couple of Aragon watches, which you would definitely not refer to as ‘small’, and I think they also suit me well. YMMV

  • Bugger 815 came back in stock but price now back to $675
