The Seiko 5 Sports Field GMT SSK023 and SSK025 share the same 4R34 automatic movement, GMT function and case dimensions. The main choice is the finish and strap: the SSK023 pairs an uncoated stainless-steel case with a steel bracelet, while the SSK025 has a black-coated case and black leather strap. Seiko’s US product pages list them at $450 and $435, respectively; those are reference prices, and stock and pricing can change.
What separates the SSK023 and SSK025?
These are two configurations of Seiko’s 5 Sports Field GMT. The SSK023 has a stainless-steel case and multi-link bracelet. The SSK025 uses a stainless-steel case with black hard coating and a black leather strap. Seiko describes the Field series’ GMT function as a first for the series on both official product pages.

How does the GMT function work?
Both models use caliber 4R34 and include a 24-hour hand for dual-time display. The red GMT hand points to the 24-hour scale, allowing the wearer to track another time zone alongside local time. Seiko says the red, five-sided hand is intended to improve legibility against the black dial. The movement also has a date display and stop-seconds function, which stops the seconds hand when setting the time.

Which model should you choose?
Choose the SSK023 for a steel-bracelet look
The SSK023 is the option to consider if you prefer an uncoated steel case and integrated steel bracelet. Seiko lists its weight at 147.0 g. That is a specification, not a measure of how comfortable it will feel on your wrist; fit and comfort depend on the wearer and cannot be inferred from weight alone.
Choose the SSK025 for a black finish and leather strap
The SSK025 combines a black-coated case with a black leather strap and is listed at 79.0 g. Its lower listed weight should not be treated as a guarantee of greater comfort. It is also the less expensive of the two at Seiko’s US reference prices, by $15, though live pricing may differ.
Rank #2
- Comes with individual box
- 24 hour hand (dual time display function)

What should you know about size and durability?
The listed diameter is 39.4 mm, thickness 13.6 mm and lug-to-lug length 47.9 mm on both models. Each has 20 mm lug spacing, a curved Hardlex crystal, LumiBrite on the hands and indexes, 4,800 A/m magnetic resistance and 10 bar water resistance. These are manufacturer specifications; they do not establish independently tested performance or suitability for every activity.
What’s actually slowing this PC down?
Pick the symptom - the matching free tool is one click away.
The listed 20 mm lug spacing may help when considering replacement straps, but confirm fit and attachment compatibility before buying one. The SSK023 uses a three-fold clasp with secure lock; Seiko lists a see-through screw case back for the SSK025.
Are these newly released watches?
Seiko’s pages identify both as 5 Sports Field GMT models, but do not establish an original announcement date or a current launch schedule. Calling them a new release would therefore imply timing that the available official product information does not confirm.
