Greetings to everyone

I have been considering the purchase of my first mechanical watch, and I really like the Seiko Sport 5 Field models (the SRPG31 to be exact). I know that the posted specs on the accuracy of the movement is listed as being up to +/- 45 seconds per day, but I have heard that Seiko tends to “under promise and over deliver” when it comes to accuracy. For this reason, I wanted to ask if any owners of the 4r36 movement watches could chime in with the accuracy you tend to get out of your watch. Thank you for your help.

    I’ve had an Srpg27 for about 8 months and honestly it’s been pretty accurate so far. The last time I’ve set the time was a bit over 2 weeks ago and I’m ahead by 2-3 minutes right now (+10s/day). This of course might be different to someone else’s, especially considering that I had to re-regulate the watch a few months after I got it since it was running fast. For the price it’s a really good movement that isn’t scared to take a beating.
