The best woman's Seiko watch for under 100 dollars
Series 5
Model: SYMD95
Case: 25mm, Stainless steel
Band: 14mm, Stainless steel
Movement: Seiko Automatic 4207
Functions: HH, MM, SS, Date, Day
Battery: N/A
Water resistance: 30M/100ft
The Seiko Series 5 line of watches have been in production in one form or another for a very long time now. They are some of my favorite Seiko watches. You generally get a lot of bang for your buck with this series, and I love when I get a chance to include them in one of my lists. This watch in particular, the Seiko Series 5 SYMD95 has made one of the best women's watches under lists before. It was on the Best Women's Watches for Under 100 Dollars list. And It was one of my favorites on that list.
This Series 5 has a 25mm stainless steel case, with the crown located at the 3 o'clock position. It has a black dial face with silver index marks, marking the hours. There is a day/date window located, also at the 3 o'clock position. The hands of the watch are polished steel with a luminous material imbued, for night time viewing. The band is a stainless steel link with a folding style clasp.
The movement for the Series 5 watch is an automatic style. This means it does not use a battery or need regular winding, as long as it is being wore, and is in occasional movement, it is self winding. It has 21 jewels, and runs at 21,600 beats per hour. It also has about a 24 hour power reserve.
This watch can generally be had through the online retailers for around 80 dollars. Personally, I find it a great deal at under 100 dollars. It is far and away, more watch than you will generally find at that price.

The best women's Seiko watches for under 200 dollars
Recraft Series Solar
Model: SNE885
Case: 38.5mm, Stainless steel
Band: Stainless steel
Movement: V157, Solar Power Quartz
Functions: HH, MM, SS, Date
Battery:
Water resistance: 100M/330ft
The Recraft series is another series of Seiko watches I enjoy, and generally speaking, they can all be had for at or around 200 dollars. As a whole, they are quartz movements that are solar powered, which, although not mechanical movements, are nice, considering you have no worry about the need to change batteries.
This particular Recraft is a 38.5mm, stainless steel cased variety. It has a crown located at the 3 o'clock position, and a Hardlex crystal lens. The dial face is a pink/violet mother of pearl, with Roman numerals marking the even hours, and indexes marking the odd. There is a date window, located at the 3 o'clock position. The hands of the watch are polished steel, and the band of the watch is stainless steel, and has a folding style clasp. The movement of the watch is a Seiko V157. This is a quartz movement with a solar charging ability. It means it should keep great time like most quartz movements, and it should not need battery replacement.
I find this watch through the online retailers for anywhere between 120 and 165 dollars. To me, it is another great watch for the price. But, I would recommend that if this particular watch does not fit your liking, that you could look at the other Recraft series, and possibly find one that you prefer.

The best women's Seiko watch for under 500 dollars
Series 5
Model: SYM632J1
Case: 23mm, Stainless steel
Band: Stainless steel
Movement: Automatic
Functions: HH, MM, SS, Date, Day
Water resistance: 30M/100ft
So, again we have a Seiko Series 5 for you on this list. This one, as well, has made an appearance before, on the best women's watches under 500 dollars list. And it has a lot of the same attributes at the first one. Just in a more stylish and expensive package.
This Series 5 sports a 23mm, gold toned stainless steel, square case. It has a gold toned crown located at the 3 o'clock position. It sports a Hardlex lens, and the dial face of the watch is gold as well. It has indexes marking the hours, except for at the 3, 6, 9 & 12 o'clock positions. Those are marked with square gold features. The hands of the watch are gold toned as well, and there is a day/date window located at the 3 o'clock position. The band of the watch is a linked, gold tone, stainless steel style, with a folding style clasp.
The movement is a mechanical, automatic style, common to the Series 5 watches. It has 21 jewels, and runs at 21,600 bph. It has a 30 hour power reserve. This gives it specs that are on par with most Series 5 watches.
This watch falls low withing the under 500 dollar price point. I can usually find this one through online retailers for around 275 dollars, and it strikes me as a great bargain at that price. It makes it nearly impossible for me to include it in my lists. It is a nice looking watch with a strong retro feel to it.

The best women's watch for under 2000 dollars
Grand Seiko
Model: STGF075
Case: 26mm, Stainless steel
Band: Stainless steel
Movement: Seiko 4J52 Quartz
Functions: HH, MM, SS, Date
Battery: 3 year battery
Water resistance: 100M/330ft
The Grand Seiko line is considered some of the highest quality watches Seiko makes. They are the cream of the crop so to speak, and the workmanship of these watches show some of what Seiko has accomplished in its many years of operations.
I skipped the 1000 dollar price point in this list, primarily because the options in that price point did not completely thrill me, so, instead, we jump right to the top.
This particular Grand Seiko has a 26mm stainless steel case, It has large lugs, and a crown that is located at the 3 o'clock position. It has a sapphire lens covering the mother of pearl dial face. The hours of the Grand Seiko are marked with polished steel, raised indexes, and there is a date window located at the 3 o'clock position. The hands of the watch are also polished steel. It has a stainless steel, linked band with a folding style clasp. The movement is a Quartz variety. It comes with a battery guaranteed for 3 years.
The watch is a fine looking watch, similar to a Rolex Oyster style of watch. It would not be mistaken for one, but it has a similar look to it. The online retailers usually sell this watch for around 1400 dollars, putting it well under the 2000 dollar price point, and making it an excellent option for a high end Seiko watch, if that happens to be what you are looking for.
I hope you have enjoyed the best women's watches under blog, and thank you for reading.
